  1. 1. Protein–DNA Recognition : In Vitro Evolution and Characterization of DNA-Binding Proteins

    Author : Mikael Nilsson; Mikael Widersten; Dan Tawfik; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; In vitro evolution; Phage display; mRNA display; Cro; DNA recognition; repressor; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Abstract : DNA-recognizing proteins are involved in a multitude of important life-processes. Therefore, it is of great interest to understand the underlying mechanisms that set the rules for sequence specific protein–DNA interactions. Previous attempts aiming to resolve these interactions have been focused on naturally occurring systems. READ MORE

  2. 2. Towards the Rational Design of Molecularly Imprinted Polymers

    Author : Håkan S Andersson; Ann-Christin Koch-Schmidt; Ian A Nicholls; Klaus Mosbach; Richard F Venn; Tillämpad biokemi; []

    Abstract : Molecular imprinting is a technique by which polymeric materials selective for a given target molecule can be created through a casting procedure. Functionalised monomers are added to a solution of molecular templates. READ MORE

  3. 3. Molecular Recognition Studies Based on Imprinting Technology

    Author : Cong Yu; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; imprinting; molecular recognition; polymer; chiral separation; acrylamide; chromatography; functional monomer; cross-linking; hydrogen bonding; hydrophobic interactions; aqueous media; solvent; antibody; mimics; receptor; artificial enzyme; Bioteknik; Biotechnology; Biokemi; Metabolism; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : In this thesis, I have focused on five main research areas: 1). A new type of imprinted polymer has been developed, namely the amide MIP. The amide functional monomers showed better hydrogen bonding capabilities in polar organic solvents and the resulting polymers exhibited good enantiomeric recognition properties in organic media.

  4. 4. Molecular Electronics : Insight from Ab-Initio Transport Simulations

    Author : Jariyanee Prasongkit; Rajeev Ahuja; Magnus Paulsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular Electronics; Ab Initio; DNA Sequencing; Nanoscience; Graphene; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the theoretical studies of electronic transport in molecular electronic devices. Such devices have been proposed and investigated as a promising new approach that complements conventional silicon-based electronics. READ MORE

  5. 5. Peptidoglycan recognition proteins in Drosophila melanogaster

    Author : Thomas Werner; Dan Hultmark; Bruno Lemaitre; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular biology; Drosophila; PGRP; peptidoglycan; pattern recognition; imd; Relish; isoform; RNAi; mbn-2; Molekylärbiologi; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster is an excellent model organism to study the innate immune response, because insects and mammals share conserved features regarding the recognition and destruction of microorganisms and Drosophila is easily accessible to genetic manipulation. In my present study, I identified a new family of pattern recognition molecules for bacterial peptidoglycan in Drosophila, the Peptidoglycan Recognition Proteins (PGRP). READ MORE
