1. 1. X-ray structure analysis of short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases

   Författare :Jordi Benach-Andreu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :crystal structure; short-chain dehydrogenases reductases; Drosophila alcohol dehydrogenase; catalytic reaction mechanism; Comamonas testosteroni 3[beta] 17[beta]hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase;

   Sammanfattning : X-ray crystallography and site-directed mutagenesis were used to better understand the structure/function relationships in the family of short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR). This group of enzymes constitutes a protein family with at least 60 members with highly diverse functions in pro- and eukaryotes. LÄS MER

3. 2. Characterization of stress-inducible short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) in plants : study of a novel small protein family from Pisum sativum (pea)

   Författare :Nikolai Scherbak; Åke Strid; Jan Rydström; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell biology; Biology; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

   Sammanfattning : In pea (Pisum sativum), the short-chain alcohol dehydrogenase-like protein (SAD) gene family consists of at least three members (SAD-A, -B, and -C). The SAD genes are transiently expressed in plants after short exposures to ultraviolet-B radiation, which in turn leads to formation of SAD protein in leaf and stem tissue upon prolonged irradiation.

4. 3. The molecular biology of retinoid metabolism : identification of an 11-cis retinol dehydrogenase in the retinal pigment epithelium

   Författare :András Simon; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :11-cis retinol; 11-cis retinol dehydrogenase; chromophore; 11-cis retinaldehyde; 9-cis retinol; 9-cis retinol dehydrogenase; retinal pigment epithelium; vitamin A; short-chain alcohol dehydrogenase;

   Sammanfattning : Vitamin A derivatives (retinoids) are essential molecules in the course of embryonic development, postnatal growth and adult physiology. The physiological functions of retinoids are thought to be mediated mainly by retinoic acid which regulates the expression of various genes, and 11-cis retinaldehyde, which is the common chromophore of visual pigments.

5. 4. Biocomputational studies on protein structures

   Författare :Erik Nordling; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Biology in the post-genomic era produces large amount of data. This, in combination with the need for efficient algorithms to find genes in the genomic material, has brought a renaissance into the field of computational biology. LÄS MER
