16. Structure-function studies of epoxide hydrolases
Sammanfattning : Epoxides are three-membered cyclic ethers formed in cells via several metabolic pathways. Epoxide hydrolases (EHs) are enzymes that hydrolyse epoxides to the corresponding diols. The main goal of this thesis was to investigate the structures of EHs from the alpha/beta-hydrolase family. LÄS MER
17. Glycoside hydrolases from Rhodothermus marinus Modular organisation and structure-function relationships
Sammanfattning : The thermophilic bacterium Rhodothermus marinus produces several thermostable glycoside hydrolases. The studies presented in this thesis were performed on two enzymes, belonging to glycoside hydrolase families 10 and 12, produced by this microorganism. The family 10 xylanase, Xyn10A, is modular in architecture consisting of five domains or modules. LÄS MER
18. Glycoside hydrolases from extremophiles isolated in Iceland. alpha-L-Rhamnosidases and pectin degrading enzymes
Sammanfattning : Extreme environments (high and low temperature, high and low pH, etc.) are inhabited by a vast and diverse flora of microorganisms, which are adapted to these environments (extremophiles). LÄS MER
19. Cryo-EM and Computational Biology of Macromolecular Complexes
Sammanfattning : The ribosome is a large, ancient multicomponent macromolecular complex which is highly amenable to study by cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and computation biology methods. This thesis delves into the structure of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic ribosomes in the context of determining a solution to emerging antimicrobial resistance. LÄS MER
20. Tailoring of Contacts on Silicon Carbide - Procedures and Mechanisms
Sammanfattning : Silicon carbide (SiC) exhibits very good electrical, thermal, chemical and mechanical properties which make it suitable for the next generation of wide band gap electronic devices, where silicon (Si) cannot be used due to its limitations with respect to the mentioned properties. Nickel (Ni) and Tantalum (Ta) are among the metals used for the contact formation. LÄS MER
