  2. 2. Biophysical studies of membrane interacting peptides derived from viral and Prion proteins

    Författare :Kamila Oglęcka; Astrid Gräslund; Stephen White; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Prion peptides; Doppel peptide; Influenza fusion peptides; peptide-membrane interactions; translocation; linear dichroism; circular dichroism; Biophysics; Biofysik; Biophysics; biofysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on peptides derived from the Prion, Doppel and Influenza haemagglutinin proteins in the context of bilayer interactions with model membranes and live cells. The studies involve spectroscopic techniques like fluorescence, fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), circular and linear dichroism (CD and LD), confocal fluorescence microscopy and NMR.

  3. 3. DNA-Complexes with Drugs and Proteins

    Författare :Louise Fornander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Circular Dichroism; Linear Dichroism; Minor groove binder; DNA strand exchange; HsRad51; Isothermal Titration Calorimetry; Hoechst 33258;

    Sammanfattning : DNA is fundamental for all living cells; the DNA holds the genetic code, which is more or less the instruction book for how all cells are built and function. Several diseases are also linked to DNA, emerging either from a mutation in our genome, which could result in a malfunctioning protein, or that the transcription of genes is somehow affected by structural changes in the DNA, induced by mutations or DNA binding molecules.

  4. 4. Membrane Induced Structure in Transmembrane Signaling Proteins and Peptides : Peptide–Lipid Interactions Studied by Spectroscopic Methods

    Författare :Sofia E. Unnerståle; Lena Mäler; Jason Schnell; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; peptide-lipid interaction; paddle domain; voltage gating; voltage sensor domain; micelle; phospholipid bicelle; solution structure; HAMP domain; nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy; circular dichroism spectroscopy; nonspecific interaction; Biophysics; biofysik;

    Sammanfattning : Biological membranes, defining the boundary of cells and eukaryotic organelles, are mainly composed of lipids and membrane proteins. Interactions between these lipids and proteins are needed to preserve the tight seal of the membrane, but also to induce structure for proper function in many membrane proteins. LÄS MER

  5. 5. A Chloroplast Localized Small Heat Shock Protein, Hsp21. Importance of Hsp21 in stress protection of transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana, recombinant expression and characterization of oxidation-dependent conformational changes

    Författare :Ulrika Härndahl; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; a-crystallin; sHsp; chaperone; amphipathic a-helix; oligomer; redox-regulated; methionine sulfoxidation; oxidative stress; regulation; protein structure; circular dichroism; mass spectrometry; fluorescence spectroscopy; Biochemistry; Metabolism; Biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : A specific group of heat shock proteins, the so called small heat shock proteins (sHsps), exists in all organisms but are especially abundant in plants. The sHsps prevent aggregation of other proteins (substrate proteins) during transient heat and oxidative stress. LÄS MER
