6. Protein Folding and DNA Origami
Abstract : In this thesis, the folding process of the de novo designed polypeptide chignolin was elucidated through atomic-scale Molecular Dynamics (MD) computer simulations. In a series of long timescale and replica exchange MD simulations, chignolin’s folding and unfolding was observed numerous times and the native state was identified from the computed Gibbs free-energy landscape.

7. Structure, dynamics and lipid interaction of membrane-associated proteins
Abstract : A research topic within the field of molecular biophysics is the structure-function relationship of proteins. Membrane proteins are a large, diverse group of biological macromolecules that perform many different and essential functions for the cell. READ MORE

8. Capturing transient peptide assemblies associated with Alzheimer's disease : Native mass spectrometry studies of amyloid-β oligomerization
Abstract : Correct folding of proteins is essential for maintaining a functional living cell. Misfolding and aggregation of proteins, where non-native intermolecular interactions form large and highly ordered amyloid aggregates with low free energy, is hence associated with multiple diseases.

9. Modulation of Alzheimer's amyloid β peptide self-assembly : Insights into molecular mechanisms of peptide aggregation associated with Alzheimer's disease
Abstract : Misfolding of proteins and peptides is closely linked to several neurodegenerative disorders, among them Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most prominent example of brain diseases. The self-assembly of the amyloid β peptide (Aβ) into amyloid fibrils is one histologic hallmark of AD. READ MORE
