1. Temperature-dependent structure and function of group A streptococcal M proteins
Sammanfattning : Temperature-dependent structure and function of group A streptococcal M proteins.This thesis describes the temperature-dependent structure of the members in the group A streptococcal M protein family. M proteins are cell-surface proteins that are important for the bacterial virulence and bind to a diverse set of human plasma proteins. LÄS MER
2. Protein-Protein Interactions Affecting Protein-Surface Interactions
Sammanfattning : The focus of this thesis is the behaviour of proteins towards surfaces in the presence of other protein species. General protein-protein interactions of some plasma proteins are investigated in the first four papers. The proteins, immunoglobulin G, albumin, and fibrinogen, are analysed in solutions of single proteins as well as controlled mixtures. LÄS MER
3. Streptococcus pyogenes - a manipulator of human defences
Sammanfattning : Streptococcus pyogenes is a major human pathogen with more than 500 000 casualties annually of which at least 163 000 are due to invasive infections. The remainder is due to post-streptococcal complications with rheu¬matic heart disease constituting the majority. S. LÄS MER
4. A fibrinogen-binding protein from Staphylococcus epidermidis
Sammanfattning : Staphylococcus epidermidis, a coagulase negative staphylococci (CoNS), is a major component of human flora. It is one of the leading pathogens of nosocomial infections, particularly associated with foreign body infections. LÄS MER
5. Fibrinogen-binding proteins from Staphylococcus aureus
Sammanfattning : Staphylococcus aureus produces a large number of proteins that specifically bind to molecules from plasma or from the human extracellular matrix where they are involved in processes associated with the colonization of the host tissues. At least six different fibrinogen-binding proteins have been identified from S. LÄS MER
