6. Structural Transitions in Helical Peptides : The Influence of Water – Implications for Molecular Recognition and Protein Folding
Abstract : Fluctuations in protein structure are vital to function. This contrasts the dominating structure-function paradigm, which connects the well-defined three-dimensional protein structure to its function. However, catalysis is observed in disordered enzymes, which lack a defined structure. READ MORE

7. Structure-Function Studies of Enzymes from Ribose Metabolism
Abstract : In the pentose phosphate pathway, carbohydrates such as glucose and ribose are degraded with production of reductive power and energy. Another important function is to produce essential pentoses, such as ribose 5-phosphate, which later can be used in biosynthesis of nucleic acids and cofactors. READ MORE
