   Author : Oommen P. Varghese; Lars Engman; Jacek Stawinski; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organic chemistry; chemically modified oligonucleotides; azetidine; aza-ENA-T; cyanomethylene locked; free energy of activation; diaxial interactions; chair conformation; stable duplex; human serum; snake venom phosphodiesterase; antisense agents; RNase H; Organisk kemi; Chemistry; Kemi;

   Abstract : This thesis is concerned with synthesis, structure and biochemical analysis of chemically modified oligonucleotides with potential therapeutic applications. The three types of chemical modifications described here are: (a) A North-East locked 1',2'-azetidine nucleoside (b) A North locked 2',4'-cyanomethylene bridged nucleoside and (c) A 2',4'-aza-ENA-T nucleoside.

   Abstract : Glycosidases hydrolyse the glycosidic bond in carbohydrates. Structural studies of three glycosidases with different substrate specificities are presented in this work.Dextranase catalyzes the hydrolysis of α-1,6-glycosidic linkage in dextran polymers. READ MORE

5. 3. Synthesis and structure activity relationships of competitive NMDA antagonists with analgesic activity

   Author : Britt-Marie Swahn; Uppsala universitet; []

   Abstract : The compounds cis-3-(1-oxo-2-phosphonoethyl)-2-piperidinecarboxylic acid 1 and cis-3-(1-hydroxy-2-phosphonoethyl)-2-piperidinecarboxylic acid 2 were synthesized and found to be potent N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists. NMR analysis showed that 1 prefers a 2eq,3ax chair conformation probably due to a conformer-stabilizing internal hydrogen bond. READ MORE
