  2. 16. Understanding structure and function of membrane protein transporters

    Author : Anna-Karin Lundbäck; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Membrane protein transporters are important proteins in the cell, as they maintain different solutes and metabolites at a stable concentration. Numerous diseases can be linked to malfunctioning transporters, which makes them interesting pharmaceutical targets. READ MORE

  5. 18. Methods for elucidating membrane protein structure and function

    Author : Carolina Trkulja; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; patch clamp; antibodies; mass spectrometry; ion channels; proteomics; fluorescence; TRPV1; cholesterol.; limited proteolysis; Membrane proteins;

    Abstract : Elucidation of the structure-function relationship of membrane proteins increases our understanding of many biological processes, both physiological and pathological. However, membrane proteins have been notoriously difficult to study, having part of their structure embedded into the lipid cell membrane. READ MORE

  6. 19. Advances in Membrane Protein Structural Biology: Lipidic Sponge Phase Crystallization, Time-Resolved Laue Diffraction and Serial Femtosecond Crystallography

    Author : Linda C Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Serial femtosecond crystallography; Lipidic sponge phase crystallization; Membrane protein crystallization; X-ray free-electron laser;

    Abstract : Membrane proteins carry out many essential tasks in cells such as signaling and transport, or function as electron carriers in photosynthesis and cellular respiration. The aim of this thesis has been to develop new and improve existing techniques for elucidating the structure and function of membrane proteins. READ MORE

    Abstract : Membrane protein dynamics is of great importance for living organisms. The precise localization of proteins composing a synapse on the membrane facing a nerve terminus is essential for proper functioning of the nervous system. In muscle fibers, the nicotinic acetylcholine is densely packed under the motor nerve termini. READ MORE
