1. The Ins and Outs of Membrane Proteins : Topology Studies of Bacterial Membrane Proteins
Sammanfattning : α-helical membrane proteins comprise about a quarter of all proteins in a cell and carry out a wide variety of essential cellular functions. This thesis is focused on topology analyses of bacterial membrane proteins. The topology describes the two-dimensional structural arrangement of a protein relative to the membrane. LÄS MER
2. Dual-topology membrane proteins in Escherichia coli
Sammanfattning : Cellular life, as we know it, is absolutely dependent on biological membranes; remarkable superstructures made of lipids and proteins. For example, all living cells are surrounded by at least one membrane that protects the cell and holds it together. LÄS MER
3. Topology optimization of antennas and waveguide transitions
Sammanfattning : This thesis introduces a topology optimization approach to design, from scratch, efficient microwave devices, such as antennas and waveguide transitions. The design of these devices is formulated as a general optimization problem that aims to build the whole layout of the device in order to extremize a chosen objective function. LÄS MER
4. EmrE, a puzzling transporter : Assembly, biogenesis and evolution of a dual-topology membrane protein
Sammanfattning : Biological membranes are the key to cell existence, as they are able to both isolate and connect their interior with the environment. Membranes are composed of lipids and proteins that create a semi-permeable barrier; because the lipid bilayer stops free diffusion of most molecules and ions, membrane proteins play an important role in connecting the interior of the cell with its environment.

5. Topology and membrane rearrangements of the hepatitis C virus protein NS4B
Sammanfattning : Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of chronic liver disease and viral hepatitis around the world. Approximately 180 million people or 3% of the world's population are infected with the virus. LÄS MER
