  1. 21. Mutational Analysis and Redesign of Alpha-class Glutathione Transferases for Enhanced Azathioprine Activity

    Författare :Olof Modén; Bengt Mannervik; Mikael Widersten; Kenneth Tew; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; allelic variants; azathioprine; bioactivation; chimeric mutagenesis; directed evolution; DNA shuffling; enzyme engineering; glutathione transferase; GST; lysate screening; molecular docking; multiple alignment; multivariate analysis; polymorphism; principal component analysis; prodrug; prodrug activation; protein engineering; protein redesign; reduced amino acid alphabet; saturation mutagenesis; semi-rational enzyme engineering; site-directed mutagenesis; structure-activity relationship; structure-based redesign; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Glutathione transferase (GST) A2-2 is the human enzyme most efficient in catalyzing azathioprine activation. Structure-function relationships were sought explaining the higher catalytic efficiency compared to other alpha class GSTs. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Expression and Mutagenesis studies of Candida antactica lipase B

    Författare :Johanna C. Rotticci-Mulder; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Protein expression; Candida antarctica lipase B; Pichia pastoris; site-directed mutagenesis; fermentation; selection;

    Sammanfattning : Recombinant Candida antarctica lipase B was successfullyproduced in the methylotropic yeast Pichia pastoris. Thespecific activities of Candida antarctica lipase B produced inPichia pastoris and commercial Candida antarctica lipase B fromNovozymes were the same. In shake-flask cultivations theexpression levels were about 25 mg L-1. LÄS MER

  4. 23. The structural basis for the catalytic specificity of manganese lipoxygenases : 3D structure analysis of the lipoxygenase of Magnaporthe oryzae

    Författare :Anneli Wennman; Ernst H. Oliw; Marcia Newcomer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; oxylipin; lipoxygenase; crystal structure; crystallography; HPLC; mass spectrometry; yeast; site-directed mutagenesis; fungi; Biochemical Pharmacology; Biokemisk farmakologi;

    Sammanfattning : Lipoxygenases (LOX) catalyze regio- and stereospecific oxygenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids to hydroperoxides. These hydroperoxides are further metabolized to leukotrienes and lipoxins in mammals, and are involved in asthma and inflammation. LOX of animals and plants contain iron as catalytic metal (FeLOX).

  5. 24. Functional Studies of the Neuropeptide Y System : Receptor-Ligand Interaction and Regulation of Food Intake

    Författare :Helena Åkerberg; Dan Larhammar; Rickard Malmström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neuropeptide Y; G-protein coupled receptor GPCR ; site-directed mutagenesis; pancreatic polypeptide; food intake; dog; Pharmacology; Farmakologi;

    Sammanfattning : The members of the mammalian neuropeptide Y family, i.e. the peptides neuropeptide Y (NPY), peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP), are all involved in regulation of food intake. In human and most other mammals they act via receptors Y1, Y2, Y4 and Y5. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Leukotriene A4 hydrolase : studies of structure-function relationships by site-directed mutagenesis and X-ray crystallography

    Författare :Peter C Rudberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Inflammation is the pathophysiological mechanism by which an organism clears and rebuilds a site of infection or injury. It is also the characteristic feature of a multitude of severe diseases, with the potential of afflicting almost any organ system. LÄS MER
