  1. 1. Exploring the structure of oligo- and polysaccharides : Synthesis and NMR spectroscopy studies

    Author : Hanna Jonsson; Göran Widmalm; Antonio Molinaro; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbohydrates; NMR spectroscopy; synthesis; lipopolysaccharides; conformational studies; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : A deeper understanding of the diversity of carbohydrates and the many applications of oligo- and polysaccharides found in nature are of high interest. Many of the processes involving carbohydrates affect our everyday life. This thesis is based on six papers all contributing to an extended perspective of carbohydrate property and functionality.

  2. 2. Conformations of Flexible Oligosaccharides : Molecular Simulations and NMR spectroscopy

    Author : Robert Pendrill; Göran Widmalm; Jens Duus; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbohydrates; Oligosaccharide; Conformation; NMR spectroscopy; MD simulations; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : The conformational preferences of several oligosaccharides are investigated herein using a combination of NMR spectroscopy and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, focusing on the torsion angles associated with the glycosidic linkages.Strategies for obtaining usable J-HMBC spectra for carbons with an adjacent 13C label are described.

  3. 3. Structure, dynamics and interactions of biomolecules : Investigations by NMR spectroscopy and computational methods

    Author : Jens Landström; Göran Widmalm; Pedro Nieto; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NMR spectroscopy; MD simulation; carbohydrate synthesis; protein-ligand interaction; glycosyltransferase; Chemistry; Kemi; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the structure, dynamics and interactions of proteins and carbohydrates are investigated using mainly NMR spectroscopy and computer simulations. Oligosaccharides representing a Salmonella O-antigen have been synthesized and their dynamic behavior and interaction with the bacteriophage P22 tail-spike protein have been studied by NMR spectroscopy, MD and docking simulations.

  4. 4. Exploring the Molecular Behavior of Carbohydrates by NMR Spectroscopy : Shapes, motions and interactions

    Author : Olof Engström; Göran Widmalm; Anthony S. Serianni; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NMR spectroscopy; NMR relaxation; DNMR; CORCEMA-ST; carbohydrates; caffeine; O-antigen; glycofullerenes; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : Carbohydrates are essential biomolecules that decorate cell membranes and proteins in organisms. They are important both as structural elements and as identification markers. Many biological and pathogenic processes rely on the identification of carbohydrates by proteins, thereby making them attractive as molecular blueprints for drugs. READ MORE

  5. 5. Bax and oxidized phospholipids - a deadly complex : Apoptotic protein-lipid assemblies studied by MAS NMR spectroscopy

    Author : Artur Dingeldein; Gerhard Gröbner; Mikael Elofsson; Tobias Sparrman; Daniel Topgaard; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NMR spectroscopy; mitochondrial membranes; apoptosis; membrane dynamics and organization; Bcl-2 family proteins; Bax protein; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Mitochondria are renowned for their vital role as cellular powerhouses because they provide ATP via cellular respiration. Additionally, these organelles also play an important role in other physiological processes, such as apoptosis. READ MORE
