1. Exploring the Interplay of Lipids and Membrane Proteins
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

2. Biophysical studies of membrane associated peptides
Abstract : A large part of the processes in living organisms involves proteins acting in a biological membrane. Biophysical studies on isolated model systems can give important understandings of the complicated biological mechanisms in the membrane. In this thesis peptide membrane interaction mechanisms are studied in several different systems. READ MORE

3. Expression and purification of membrane proteins: Focus on the G-protein coupled receptor MC4r
Abstract : Membrane proteins are crucial components of the cell and are involved in many biological processes. Recombinant overexpression systems together with different purification methods are necessary to obtain large amounts of purified receptor for biophysical and functional studies. READ MORE

4. Structure studies of membrane associated proteins by transmission electron microscopy
Abstract : Cell membranes need to change their shapes during many cellular processeslike protein trafficking, cytokinesis and membrane homeostasis. The lattershuttles lipids, synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum, to all membranouscompartments. READ MORE

5. Membrane interactions of glycosyltransferases
Abstract : Many important biological processes occur near or in membranes. The role of membranes is not merely confined to compartmentalization, they also form the matrix for membrane associated proteins and are of functional importance. Membrane associated proteins on the other hand require specific membrane properties for proper function. READ MORE
