    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbohydrate; DFT; ab initio; docking calculations; Molecular dynamics; Langevin Dynaimcs; structure analysis; carbohydrate-protein interaction; Chemical shift calculations; Spin spin coupling constants.; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Abstract : In this thesis a computational complement to experimental observables will be presented. Computational tools such as molecular dynamics and quantum chemical tools will be used to aid in the interpretation of experimentally (NMR) obtained structural data. READ MORE

  2. 2. Deciphering Carbohydrate Structure : From NMR Chemical Shifts to Conformational Analysis

    Author : Kevin M. Dorst; Göran Widmalm; Martina Delbianco; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NMR chemical shift prediction; Structural elucidation; Conformational studies; NMR spectroscopy; MD simulations; Organic Chemistry; organisk kemi;

    Abstract : Carbohydrates are ubiquitous in nature and exhibit a multitude of roles. Besides nucleic and amino acids, they can be regarded as the third alphabet of life. They are used as energy source to fuel the cells, as structural building blocks and play a key role in cellular recognition processes. READ MORE

    Abstract : The present thesis honors contemporary molecular dynamics simulation methodologies which provide powerful means to predict data, interpret observations and widen our understanding of the dynamics, structures and interactions of carbohydrate systems. With this as starting point my thesis work embarked on several cutting edge problems summarized as follows. READ MORE

  5. 5. Assembling and Unraveling Carbohydrates Structures : Conformational analysis of synthesized branched oligosaccharides

    Author : Thibault Angles d'Ortoli; Göran Widmalm; Christian Marcus Pedersen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Convergent carbohydrate synthesis; Super-armed donors; Glycosylation; Conformational analysis; NMR; Chemical shift prediction; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : Advances in the elaboration of vaccines and enzyme inhibitors rely on acquiring more knowledge about protein-carbohydrate binding events. Furthermore, the relationships between biological function and the three-dimensional properties of large glycans can be studied by focusing on the structural components they contained, namely, by scaling down the system under analysis.
