1. Nucleotide Binding to Trimeric dUTPase: Studies on Recombinant Enzymes using Kinetic and Spectroscopic Methods
Sammanfattning : Recombinant dUTPase from the bacterium Escherichia coli, the retrovirus equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) and Homo sapiens have been made available for physico-chemical characterisation. The protocols developed have also proven to be suitable for production of enzymes modified by isotope labelling or other methods. LÄS MER
2. On Monomeric and Trimeric dUTPases. Recombinant Expression, Purification, Conformational Properties and Catalytic Characteristics
Sammanfattning : Nucleotide metabolism and replication of nucleic acids are processes of fundamental importance. A crucial enzyme in nucleotide metabolism is dUTPase (E.C. 3. LÄS MER
3. Photoluminescence-based characterization of bioengineered nanovesicles and erbium emitters
Sammanfattning : In recent decades, photoluminescence properties of single molecules and ions have opened new possibilities for studies on smaller size scales, below the light-diffraction limit. In this thesis, the advantages of such single photon emitters were harnessed and studied mainly in the field of biophysics, but also, in investigations within solid state photonics. LÄS MER
4. Homotrimeric dUTPases : Principles of Catalysis and Inhibitor Design
Sammanfattning : The ubiquitous enzyme dUTPase hydrolyzes dUTP into dUMP and pyrophosphate, preventing DNA fragmentation and cell death due to accumulation of dUTP. Inhibitors of dUTPase could serve as drugs in the treatment of cancers and infectious diseases. This thesis presents five studies. LÄS MER
5. Viral dUTPases, Recombinant Expression, Purification and Characterization
Sammanfattning : The enzyme deoxyuridine 5’-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTPase, EC 3.6.1.23) catalyzes the hydrolysis of dUTP to dUMP and pyrophosphate. LÄS MER
