  2. 1. Studies of protein structure, dynamics and protein-ligand interactions using NMR spectroscopy

    Author : Tobias Tengel; Göran Larsson; Maria Sunnerhagen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 19F NMR; 2S albumin; PapD; protein-ligand interaction; structure; TFE; Yersinia; YopD; allergy; amphipathic helix; Ber e 1; Brazil nut; dynamics; FimC; LcrH; NMR screening; Biophysics; Biofysik;

    Abstract : In the first part of the thesis, protein-ligand interactions were investigated using the chaperone LcrH, from Yersinia as target protein. The structure of a peptide encompassing the amphipathic domain (residue 278-300) of the protein YopD from Yersinia was determined by NMR in 40% TFE. READ MORE

  4. 2. Thermodynamical and structural properties of proteins and their role in food allergy

    Author : Louise Rundqvist; Göran Larsson; Göran Karlsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Protein folding; NMR; Food allergy; allergen; protein interactions; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Proteins are important building blocks of all living organisms. They are composed of a defined sequence of different amino acids, and fold into a specific three-dimensional, ordered structure. The three-dimensional structure largely determines the function of the protein, but protein function always requires motion. READ MORE

  5. 3. Characterization and preparation of lightweight silica based ceramics for building applications

    Author : Edwin Escalera; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materialteknik; Engineering Materials;

    Abstract : Bolivia is a country with considerable quantities of non-metallic resources. Some important deposits of these resources are located in the high and cold Altiplano as well as in the tropical areas. These deposits are not being exploited industrially but both areas have production of some ceramics in a handmade and empiric way. READ MORE

  6. 4. Combustion of agricultural residues : Application for Stirling micro-combined heat and power

    Author : Evelyn Cardozo; Torsten Torsten Fransson; Carlos Augusto Santos Silva; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Abstract : Access to energy services is crucial for the development of countries. Therefore, in developing countries, the access to modern conversion technologies would contribute to reduce the poverty, improve health services and promote the economy especially in rural areas. Around 2.5 billion people in these countries use biomass for cooking. READ MORE
