  1. 6. Role of yeast DNA polymerase epsilon during DNA replication

    Author : Isabelle Isoz; Erik Johansson; Juhani Syväoja; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; DNA polymerase epsilon; eukaryotic DNA replication; fidelity; leading strand; Dpb2; Biochemistry and clinical chemistry; Biokemi och klinisk kemi;

    Abstract : Each cell division, the nuclear DNA must be replicated efficiently and with high accuracy to avoid mutations which can have an effect on cell function. There are three replicative DNA polymerases essential for the synthesis of DNA during replication in eukaryotic cells. READ MORE

  2. 7. Functional Cyclic Carbonate Monomers and Polycarbonates : Synthesis and Biomaterials Applications

    Author : Jonas Mindemark; Tim Bowden; Andrew Dove; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DNA condensation; gene delivery; ionomers; polyplexes; self-assembly; amphiphiles; biodegradable; biological applications of polymers; transfection; cyclic carbonate monomers; polycarbonates; semicrystalline polymers; click chemistry; triazoles; cycloaddition; Kemi med inriktning mot polymerkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Polymer Chemistry;

    Abstract : The present work describes a selection of strategies for the synthesis of functional aliphatic polycarbonates. Using an end-group functionalization strategy, a series of DNA-binding cationic poly(trimethylene carbonate)s was synthesized for application as vectors for non-viral gene delivery. READ MORE

  3. 8. Radiohalogenated Compounds for Tumor Targeting : Synthesis and Radiolabeling

    Author : Eskender Mume; Stefan Sjöberg; Vladimir Tolmachev; D. Scott Wilbur; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Inorganic chemistry; 9-Aminoacridine; Daunorubicin; Doxorubicin; Carborane; Radiobromination; Radioiodination; Affibody; Monoclonal antibody; Oorganisk kemi; Inorganic chemistry; Oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the synthesis and radiohalogenation of compounds of potential use for tumor targeting. The first section describes the synthesis and radioiodination of DNA intercalating compounds. The compounds are derivatives of 9-aminoacridine, and the anthracyclins daunorubicin and doxorubicin.

  4. 9. Synthesis of Small Molecules Targeting ADP-Ribosyltransferases and Total Synthesis of Resveratrol Based Natural Products

    Author : Anders Lindgren; Mikael Elofsson; Nicholas Westwood; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; organic synthesis; quinazolinone; ARTD; PARP; total synthesis; polyphenols; bensofuranes; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : Diphtheria Toxin-like ADP-RibosyltransferasesThe Human ADP-ribosyl transferases (ARTDs) are a group of poorly studied enzymes which are believed to be involved in e.g. DNA repair, protein degradation, transcription regulation and cell death. Medicinal chemistry programmes aimed at developing selective inhibitors of these ARTDs were initiated. READ MORE

  5. 10. DNA strand exchange and hydrophobic interactions between biomolecules

    Author : Bobo Feng; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ATP synthase; DNA; membrane proteins; linear dichroism; Hydrophobic interactions; self-assembly; strand exchange; nanotechnology; liposomes;

    Abstract : The role of hydrophobic interactions in DNA strand exchange has been studied using fluorescence-labeled DNA oligomers in a FRET assay. Strand exchange was found to be accelerated in the presence of polyethylene glycol, which provides a crowded and hydrophobic environment possibly mimicking that of the catalytically active recombinase-DNA complexes.
