2. 1. Making sense of adsorption : Attempting to explain the adsorption of histatin 5 with models, metaphors, and machines

   Author : Kristin Hyltegren; Beräkningskemi; []
   Keywords : Intrinsically Disordered Proteins; histatin 5; adsorption; ellipsometry; Monte Carlo simulations; coarse graining; charge regulation;

   Abstract : This thesis summarises two studies in which the main purpose was to find out how and why the amount of the protein histatin 5 that adsorbs to negatively charged surfaces changes with pH and ionic strength. Histatin 5 is an intrinsically disordered saliva protein, and in the oral environment it adsorbs to tooth enamel. READ MORE

4. 2. Coarse-Grained Modelling of Protein Adsorption

   Author : Kristin Hyltegren; Beräkningskemi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; intrinsically disordered proteins; histatin 5; fibrinogen; protein adsorption; nanotopography; ellipsometry; Monte Carlo simulations; Coarse-grained modelling; charge regulation;

   Abstract : The adsorption of proteins is a very common phenomenon, happening almost always when a protein solution comes into contact with a solid. However, it is far from always clear what the results of adsorption will be in terms of adsorbed amount, protein orientation, and protein conformation. READ MORE
