1. Haematopoietic Serine Proteases : A Cleavage Specificity Analysis
Sammanfattning : Mast cells are innate immune cells, historically involved in allergy responses involving IgE. Through this, they have earned a reputation as a fairly detrimental cell type. Their beneficial roles remain somewhat enigmatic although they clearly have the ability to modulate the immune system. LÄS MER
2. Serine Hydrolase Selectivity : Kinetics and applications in organic and analytical chemistry
Sammanfattning : The substrate selectivities for different serine hydrolases were utilized in various applications, presented in papers I-VI. The articles are discussed in the thesis in view of the kinetics of the enzyme catalysis involved. LÄS MER
3. Chymotrypsin/trypsin-related serine proteases : A structural, functional and evolutionary analysis
Sammanfattning : Is life possible without proteolytic enzymes? Proteases participate in almost everyaspect of life and they can be found throughout the body and in every cell. Mast cells,together with basophils are, two important effector cells of the immune system. LÄS MER
4. Nitrogen and Redox Metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Sammanfattning : Anaerobic conversion of glucose to ethanol by the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been studied. Glycerol is formed as a by-product in order to maintain the overall redox balance. LÄS MER
5. Cutting Edge – Cleavage Specificity and Biochemical Characterization of Mast Cell Serine Proteases
Sammanfattning : It is well established that mast cells (MC) are key players in airway pathologies such as allergic asthma, but they are also known to contribute to host defense and tissue remodeling. MC serine proteases are the major protein components of mast cell granules and accordingly, are most likely involved in many aspects of MC function. LÄS MER
