  2. 1. Physics of Viral Infectivity: Energetics of Genome Ejection

    Author : Meerim Jeembaeva; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microfluidics.; differential scanning calorimetry; capsid; Key words: phage; osmotic suppression; DNA ejection; isothermal titration calorimetry; enthalpy;

    Abstract : All viruses that infect bacteria, plant, or animal cells involve a genome (RNA or DNA) that is encapsidated by a rigid protein shell. After delivery of the viral genome into the host cell, new capsid proteins, which are encoded by viral DNA or RNA, are expressed and self-assembled into new viral capsids. READ MORE

  4. 2. Engineering of staphylococcal surfaces for biotechnological applications

    Keywords : affibody; albumin binding protein; Bacterial surface display; cell immobilisation; bioremediation; combinatorial protein engineering; flow cytometry; Gram-positive; metal-binding; staphylococcal protein A; Staphylococcus carnosus; Staphylococcus xylo;

    Abstract : The engineering of bacterial surfaces has in recent yearsattracted a lot of attention with applications in manydifferent areas of bioscience. Here we describe the use of twodifferent surface display systems for the gram-positivebacteria Staphylococcus carnosus and Staphylococcus xylosus invarious biotechnological applications. READ MORE

  5. 3. Design, selection and production of recombinant proteins for prevention of infectious diseases

    Author : Marianne Hansson; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The development of subunit vaccines is presently one of themain strategies for the generation of new vaccines againstinfectious diseases. The use of recombinant DNA techniques hasfacilitated the develoment of new strategies for constructionand production of subunit vaccines. READ MORE

  6. 4. Staphylococcal surface display and its applications in bioscience

    Author : Patrik Samuelson; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Display of heterologous proteins on the surface ofmicroorganisms, enabled by means of recombinant DNA technology,has become an increasingly used strategy in variousapplications in microbiology, biotechnology and vaccinology.This thesis presents two bacterial systems, designed forsurface display of chimeric proteins on the food-gradestaphylococcal speciesStaphylococcus xylosusandStaphylococcus carnosus, respectively.

  7. 5. Affibodies

    Author : Karin Nord; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The introduction of recombinant DNA technology-based methodsfor the overproduction of either wild type or engineeredproteins in various host cells has had an enormous impact onthe availability of proteins for various therapeutic,diagnostic and research applications, which also has creatednew demands on efficient production and purification methods toprovide the desired material. Affinity chromatography hasproven to be an outstanding technique to obtain a single-stepincrease in purity and concentration. READ MORE
