  1. 6. Studies on O-glycosylation of mucin-type proteins and their binding to antibodies, bacterial toxins and viral receptors

    Författare :Stefan Gaunitz; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Carbohydrates are ubiquitous on the surface of all cells in mammals where they are involved in interactions with the surroundings (extracellular matrix), other cells (including self and non-self) and microbes (bacteria and virus). Carbohydrate-protein interactions in nature are often mediated via multivalent binding where the combined strength of multiple receptor- ligand interactions results in a binding that is highly specific and strong.

  3. 7. Protein engineering to explore and improve affinity ligands

    Författare :Martin Linhult; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :binding; affinity; human serum albumin HSA ; albumin-binding domain ABD ; affinity chromatography; deamidation; protein A; stabilization; Z-domain; capacity; protein G; cleaning-in-place CIP ; protein engineering; C2 receptor;

    Sammanfattning : In order to produce predictable and robust systems forprotein purification and detection, well characterized, small,folded domains descending from bacterial receptors have beenused. These bacterial receptors, staphylococcal protein A (SPA)and streptococcal protein G (SPG), possess high affinity to IgGand / or HSA. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Studies on the biosynthesis of ABH and Lewis epitopes on O-glycans

    Författare :Jonas Löfling; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Fucose; Lewis antigen; Blood group ABH; biosynthesis;

    Sammanfattning : ABH and Lewis antigens are carbohydrate epitopes (glycans) found on a wide variety of cell surfaces. They are involved in many biological processes, e.g transplantation rejection, bacterial and viral adhesion, cell-cell communication and metastasis. The in vivo synthesis of glycans is mediated by glycosyltransferases (GTs). LÄS MER
