1. Investigations of chemical and enzymatic functionalization of affinity proteins
Sammanfattning : AbstractAffinity proteins are important reagents in research, diagnostics and therapeutic settings. The focus of this thesis has been on investigating different chemical and enzymatic strategies for engineering of affinity proteins to generate affinity reagents with improved or changed functionality.

2. Lysosomal Membrane Stability and Cathepsins in Cell Death
Sammanfattning : Lysosomes are acidic organelles that are critically involved in a number of physiological processes, including macromolecule degradation, endocytosis, autophagy, exocytosis and cholesterol homeostasis. Several pathological conditions, such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders and lysosomal storage diseases, involve lysosomal disturbances, indicating the importance of the organelle for correct cellular function.

3. Processing, stability and interactions of lung surfactant protein C
Sammanfattning : Mature SP-C is a 4.2 kDa transmembrane protein which is uniquely expressed in the alveolar type II cell. Human SP-C is generated via multistep proteolytic cleavage of both the C-terminal and Nterminal regions of proSP-C. LÄS MER
4. Modification of Surface Properties Through Polymer Adsorption. Kinetics, Interaction, Degradation and Stability
Sammanfattning : The interfacial behaviour of polymers in relation to surface modification and polymer degradation was studied. In the first part the interfacial behaviour of amphiphilic poly(ethylene oxide)–poly(D,L-lactide) (EmLn) diblock copolymers at hydrophilic and hydrophobic substrates from aquous solution was studied.

5. Studies on endoribonuclease RNase E and its role in RNA turnover
Sammanfattning : RNA turnover is an important level of regulation of gene expression, by which a cell can rapidly adjust to changes in its environment. The turnover of RNA is done by an efficient but not well understood mechanism. LÄS MER
