  2. 1. Exploring the Interplay of Lipids and Membrane Proteins

    Author : Candan Ariöz; Åke Wieslander; Daniel O. Daley; Malcolm East; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Membrane lipids; membrane proteins; anionic lipids; membrane remodeling; intracellular vesicles; model membrane systems; glycosyltransferase; Escherichia coli; lipid composition; fatty acid modification; membrane curvature; bacterial homeoviscous adaptation; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : The interplay between lipids and membrane proteins is known to affect membrane protein topology and thus have significant effect (control) on their functions. In this PhD thesis, the influence of lipids on the membrane protein function was studied using three different membrane protein models. READ MORE

  4. 2. Engineering membrane proteins for production and topology

    Author : Stephen Toddo; Daniel Daley; Roslyn Bill; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Membrane protein; Over-expression; Protein production; Codon optimization; Escherichia coli; AraH; NarK; mRNA secondary structure; coding sequence; ribosome binding site; RBS; topology; split-GFP; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : The genomes of diverse organisms are predicted to contain 20 – 30% membrane protein encoding genes and more than half of all therapeutics target membrane proteins. However, only 2% of crystal structures deposited in the protein data bank represent integral membrane proteins. READ MORE

  5. 3. Immersed flat-sheet membrane bioreactors for lignocellulosic bioethanol production

    Author : Amir Mahboubi; Huu Hao Ngo; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lignocellulosic bioethanol; immersed membrane bioreactor; membrane fouling; reverse membrane bioreactor; Resource Recovery; Resursåtervinning;

    Abstract : The rising awareness of the environmental, economic and socio-political impacts of over-exploitation of fossil-based fuel and energy sources, have motivated the transition toward more sustainable and renewable energy sources. Lignocellulosic materials (e.g. READ MORE

  6. 4. Membrane and secretory protein production in Escherichia coli

    Author : Alexandros Karyolaimos; Jan-Willem de Gier; Matthew DeLisa; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Escherichia coli; recombinant protein; tunable protein production; cytoplasmic membrane; periplasm; signal peptide; force profile analysis; co-translational folding; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Escherichia coli (E. coli) is the most widely used bacterium for the production of recombinant proteins. However, the production of proteins in its cytoplasmic membrane or periplasm is challenging. Therefore, the aim of this doctoral thesis was to develop setups for enhancing the production of membrane and secretory proteins in E. READ MORE

  7. 5. Downstream Processing Using Membrane Technology

    Author : Anna Persson; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Biochemical technology; Chemical technology and engineering; Protein A; Bovine serum albumin; Lactic acid; Electrodialysis; Ultrafiltration; Microfiltration; Downstream processing; Membrane; Biokemisk teknik;

    Abstract : Membrane filtration is a very gentle separation technique and can be used at low temperatures. This makes it suitable for liquids that contain micro-organisms and/or are heat sensitive, which is often the case in liquids processed in the field of biotechnology. READ MORE
