1. 1. Exploring the Role of the PDZ Domain in a Supramodule

   Författare :Louise Laursen; Per Jemth; Per Hammarström; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PSD-95; PSG; PDZ3; supramodule; liquid liquid phase separation; allostery; folding; binding; evolution; post synaptic density; SynGap; CRIPT; AGRB1; Medical Biochemistry; Medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry; Medicinsk biokemi;

   Sammanfattning : The postsynaptic density (PSD) is a large, dense and membraneless compartment of proteins associated below the postsynaptic membrane bilayer, and which constantly undergoes morphological alteration in response to synaptic activity. Formation of PSD is associated with liquid-liquid phase separation of scaffold proteins in complex with other PSD proteins. LÄS MER

3. 2. Catalysis by theta-class glutathione transferases : Substrate binding, product formation and product release

   Författare :Per Jemth; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; biokemi; Biochemistry;

   Sammanfattning : Glutathione transferases (GSTs) are detoxication enzymes that catalyze theconjugation of glutathione to a large number of electrophilic molecules. In this waythey help to rid cells of potentially toxic substances. This thesis deals with thecatalysis afforded by Theta-class glutathione transferases. LÄS MER

4. 3. Post-synaptic Density Disc Large Zo-1 (PDZ) Domains : From Folding and Binding to Drug Targeting

   Författare :Celestine Chi; Per Jemth; Maria Selmer; Sarah Linse; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; protein-protein interaction; protein folding; and drug design; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

   Sammanfattning : Understanding how proteins fold and bind is interesting since these processes are central to most biological activity. Protein folding and protein-protein interaction are by themselves very complex but using a good and robust system to study them could ease some of the hurdles. LÄS MER

5. 4. Molecular Mechanisms of Folding and Binding in PDZ Domains

   Författare :Syed Raza ul Haq; per jemth; Daniel Otzen; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : PDZ domains are one of the most abundant protein-protein interaction modules that mediate protein recognition by binding to short amino acid sequences in the cells. These globular protein domains usually consist of 80-100 amino acid residues that fold into six ß-strands and two a-helices. LÄS MER

7. 5. Protein Folding, Binding and Evolution : PDZ domains and paralemmins as model systems

   Författare :Greta Hultqvist; Per Jemth; Ruth Nussinov; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein folding; evolution; binding; allostery; Paralemmin; PDZ domain;

   Sammanfattning : Proteins present at the synapse need to be multitasking in order to perform all vital functions in this limited space. In this thesis I have analyzed the function and evolution of such proteins, focusing on the PDZ domain and the paralemmin family. The PDZ domains bind to a wide variety of interaction partners.
