  2. 11. Small Particles with Big Impact : Structural Studies of Viruses and Toxicological Studies of Nanodiamonds

    Author : Anna Munke; Marvin Seibert; Kenta Okamoto; Filipe Maia; Inger Andersson; Nicola Stonehouse; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chaetenuissarnavirus II; cryo-EM; CtenRNAV-II; Escherichia coli; Danio rerio; flash X-ray imaging; Marnaviridae; single-particle analysis; single-particle imaging; Sogarnavirus; virus evolution; virus structure; XFEL; zebrafish embryo; Physics with specialization in Biophysics; Fysik med inriktning mot biofysik;

    Abstract : Nanoparticles (NPs) can be found everywhere and their existence has both beneficial and harmful consequences for the environment and living beings. The investigations on which this thesis is based upon have contributed to an increased understanding of some of these particles and to the development of a method that could be used to study their structure.

  4. 12. Structural Studies of Large dsDNA Viruses using Single Particle Methods

    Author : Hemanth Kumar Narayana Reddy; Martin Svenda; Sarah Butcher; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PR772; phage; PRD1; Bacteriophage; coliphage; Melbournevirus; Cedratvirus; lurbo; Pithovirus; CryoEM; Single particle imaging; Coherent; Diffractive; Imaging; Soft X-ray; Microscopy; Microscope; GDVN; High resolution; XFEL; aerosol; Injection; electrospray; gas dynamic virtual nozzle; CDI; CXI; FEL; Chemistry with specialization in Biophysics; Kemi med inriktning mot biofysik;

    Abstract : Structural studies of large biological assemblies pose a unique problem due to their size, complexity and heterogeneity. Conventional methods like x-ray crystallography, NMR, etc. are limited in their ability to address these issues. To overcome some of these limitations, single particle methods were used. READ MORE

  5. 13. Molecular mechanisms underlying the activation of ALC1 nucleosome remodeling

    Author : Luka Bacic; Sebastian Deindl; Stefan D. Knight; Lari Lehtiö; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ALC1; CHD1L; nucleosome; ADP-ribosylation; chromatin; remodeling; PARP1; HPF1; DNA damage; Biology with specialization in Structural Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot strukturbiologi; Biology with specialization in Structural Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot strukturbiologi; Biology with specialization in Structural Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot strukturbiologi;

    Abstract : Packaging DNA into chromatin represses essential DNA-based processes, such as transcription, DNA replication, and repair. To change the accessibility of DNA, cells have evolved a set of enzymes referred to as chromatin remodelers that act on the basic repeat unit of chromatin,  the nucleosome. READ MORE

  6. 14. Structural and Biochemical Studies of Antibiotic Resistance and Ribosomal Frameshifting

    Author : Yang Chen; Maria Selmer; Dominique Fourmy; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein synthesis; elongation; elongation factor G; fusidic acid; antibiotic resistance; aminoglycoside adenyltransferase; ribosomal frameshifting; Biology with specialization in Structural Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot strukturbiologi;

    Abstract : Protein synthesis, translation, performed by the ribosome, is a fundamental process of life and one of the main targets of antibacterial drugs. This thesis provides structural and biochemical understanding of three aspects of bacterial translation.Elongation factor G (EF-G) is the target for the antibiotic fusidic acid (FA). READ MORE

  7. 15. New Paradigms in GPCR Drug Discovery : Structure Prediction and Design of Ligands with Tailored Properties

    Author : Mariama Jaiteh; Jens Carlsson; David E Gloriam; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; G Protein-Coupled Receptor; Molecular Docking; Virtual Screening; Homology Modeling; Molecular Dynamics Simulation; Chemical Library; Functionally Selective Ligand; Polypharmacology; Dimerization; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biotechnology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär bioteknik;

    Abstract : G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute a large superfamily of membrane proteins with key roles in cellular signaling. Upon activation by a ligand, GPCRs transduce signals from the extracellular to the intracellular environment. READ MORE
