  1. 1. Transmembrane helices : tails, turns and snorkels

    Författare :Magnus Monné; Donald Engelman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The assembly and structure of membrane proteins are intimately related. Targeting and insertion of membrane proteins into the endoplasmatic reticulum (ER) membrane involve many components that facilitate the folding of the native structure. LÄS MER

  2. 2. NA transmembrane domain : Amphiphilic drift to accommodate two functions

    Författare :Johan Nordholm; Robert Daniels; Ervin Fodor; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; influenza; IAV; neuraminidase; NA; transmembrane domain; TMD; secretory protein; ER-targeting sequence; ER-targeting sequence coding region; protein regulation; NS1; GALLEX; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Neuraminidase (NA) is one of two major antigens on the surface of influenza A viruses. It is comprised of a single N-terminal transmembrane domain (TMD), a stalk domain, and a C-terminal enzymatic head domain that cleaves sialic acid, most notably to release new particles from the host cell surface.

  3. 3. Transmembrane Proteins and Protein Structure Prediction : What we can learn from Computational Methods

    Författare :John Lamb; Arne Elofsson; Paolo Marcatili; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein structure prediction; contact prediction; transmembrane protein; topology prediction; machine learning; Biochemistry towards Bioinformatics; biokemi med inriktning mot bioinformatik;

    Sammanfattning : A protein’s 3D-structure is essential to understand how proteins function and interact and how biochemical processes proceed in organic life. Despite the advancement in experimental methods, it remains expensive and time-consuming to determine protein structure experimentally. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Studies on the transmembrane signaling of β1 integrins

    Författare :Annika Armulik; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Integrin β1; signaling; transmembrane domain; CAS; focal adhesion kinase; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Medical Biochemistry; medicinsk biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Integrins are heterodimeric cell surface receptors, composed of an α and a β subunit, mainly binding for extracellular matrix proteins. lntegrin subunit β1 can combine with at least 12 a subunits and thus form the biggest subfamily within the integrin family. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Studies on the Conformation of Transmembrane Polypeptides in Membrane Proteins

    Författare :Marika Cassel; Gunnar von Heijne; Martin Spiess; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; membrane protein; topology; transmembrane helix; helical hairpin; turn propensity; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : The major aim of the studies that this thesis is based on has been to better define the topological determinants of the formation of so-called helical hairpins during membrane protein assembly in the ER membrane.The helical hairpin is a basic folding unit in membrane proteins.
