  1. 16. Methodological studies in solid phase synthesis : Linkers and applications of multi-component condensations

    Författare :Mikael Erlandsson; Anders Undén; Thomas Norberg; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Solid phase peptide synthesis; solid phase organic chemistry; linkers; self-scavenging; safety catch linker; cyclic peptides; reductive acidolysis; disulfides; reduction; metallic zinc; multi-component condensations; combinatorial chemistry; Neurochemistry; Neurokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Solid phase synthesis has become an increasingly important tool in the synthesis of oligopolymers and small organic molecules. This thesis covers three important areas in the solid phase synthesis technique: linker strategies, reduction methods and novel routes to complex heterocycles. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Macrolide Antibiotics in Bacterial Protein Synthesis

    Författare :Martin Lovmar; Måns Ehrenberg; Tanel Tenson; Peter B. Moore; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; protein synthesis; macrolides; resistance; initiation of translation; non-competitive inhibitors; kinetics; translation accuracy; proof-reading; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Macrolides are a large group of clinically relevant antibiotics that inhibit protein synthesis by binding to the large ribosomal subunit in the peptide exit tunnel, close to the peptidyl transferase center (PTC). We have shown that the peptide length of the resulting peptidyl-tRNA drop-off products is proportional to the distance between the PTC and the respective macrolide in the tunnel. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Apoptosis Regulation via the Mitochondrial Pathway : Membrane Response upon Apoptotic Stimuli

    Författare :Marc-Antoine Sani; Gerhard Grobner; Antoinette Killian; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Apoptosis; BH4 peptide; Bax-α1 peptide; model membrane; cardiolipin; solid phase peptide synthesis; circular dichroism; solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.; Biophysics; Biofysik;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was the investigation of the mitochondrial response mechanisms upon apoptotic stimuli. The specific objectives were the biophysical characterization of membrane dynamics and the specific roles of lipids in the context of apoptotic regulation occurring at the mitochondrion and its complex membrane systems.

  4. 19. Structure and function of relaxins

    Författare :Linda M. Haugaard-Kedström; Johan Rosengren; Torleif Härd; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; relaxin; insulin-like peptide; peptide hormone; peptide synthesis and NMR; Organic Chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The relaxin/insulin superfamily is a group of peptide hormones that consists of ten members in human, namely relaxins 1-3, insulin-like peptides (INSL) 3-6, insulin and insulin-like growth factors (IGF) I-II. These peptides have various functions in the body, such as regulating growth, blood glucose levels,  collagen metabolism, germ cell maturation and appetite. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Antigens derived from the mucin MUC1 : Solution and solid-phase synthesis of saccharides, peptides and glycopeptides

    Författare :Maciej Pudelko; Mikael Elofsson; Fredrik Almqvist; Thisbe K. Lindhorst; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lactones; glycopeptides; signal peptide; neoglycolipid arrays; solid-phase synthesis; MUC1; gel-phase 19F NMR spectroscopy; fluorinated alpha-amino protective group; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Mucin is a term used to describe a large family of heavily glycosylated proteins which are present on the surfaces of secretory epithelial cells and are overexpressed by many carcinomas. Membrane-bound mucin MUC1 is of special interest. Its backbone consists of repeating units of twenty amino acids with five potential glycosylation sites. LÄS MER
