16. Mutational effects on protein structure and function
Sammanfattning : In this thesis several important proteins are investigated from a structural perspective. Some of the proteins are disease related while other have important but not completely characterised functions. LÄS MER
17. Genome-wide structural and functional protein characterization by ab initio protein structure prediction
Sammanfattning : Very little is known about a considerable part of all proteins and it is time consuming and expensive to study each individual protein to determine its function, structure and cellular role. Proteins retain structural, functional and sequential characteristics from ancestral proteins and hence two proteins that share a common ancestor, i.e. LÄS MER
18. Protein Model Quality Assessment : A Machine Learning Approach
Sammanfattning : Many protein structure prediction programs exist and they can efficiently generate a number of protein models of a varying quality. One of the problems is that it is difficult to know which model is the best one for a given target sequence. Selecting the best model is one of the major tasks of Model Quality Assessment Programs (MQAPs). LÄS MER
19. Engineering of Antibacterial Phage-Derived Proteins
Sammanfattning : The increasing threat of antibiotic resistance calls for the development of new treatment methods. Bacteriophages are interesting candidates since they can lyse bacteria with great efficiency. Bacteriophages produce enzymes called endolysins which break down the peptidoglycan in the cell wall at the end of the infection cycle. LÄS MER
20. Formalizing life : Towards an improved understanding of the sequence-structure relationship in alpha-helical transmembrane proteins
Sammanfattning : Genes coding for alpha-helical transmembrane proteins constitute roughly 25% of the total number of genes in a typical organism. As these proteins are vital parts of many biological processes, an improved understanding of them is important for achieving a better understanding of the mechanisms that constitute life. LÄS MER
