  2. 1. Protein Folding and DNA Origami

    Author : Mark Marvin Seibert; David van der Spoel; Helmut Grubmüller; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein folding; Molecular Dynamics simulations; DNA origami; Biophysics; Biofysik; Physics with specialization in Biophysics; Fysik med inriktning mot biofysik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the folding process of the de novo designed polypeptide chignolin was elucidated through atomic-scale Molecular Dynamics (MD) computer simulations. In a series of long timescale and replica exchange MD simulations, chignolin’s folding and unfolding was observed numerous times and the native state was identified from the computed Gibbs free-energy landscape.

    Abstract : The complexity of multi cellular organisms demands systems that facilitate communicationbetween cells. The neurons in our brains for instance are specialized in this cell-cellcommunication. READ MORE

  6. 4. Biophysical investigations of ribonucleotide reductase : Activation and inhibition mechanisms

    Author : Maria Öhrström; Astrid Gräslund; Anders Hofer; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular biophysics; Molekylär biofysik; Biophysics; biofysik;

    Abstract : Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) is the enzyme responsible for de novo synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides, needed for both synthesis and repair of cellular DNA. The RNRs known so far are divided into three distinct classes; I, II and III. The conventional class I enzyme is composed of two separate subunits. READ MORE

  7. 5. Algorithms for Coherent Diffractive Imaging with X-ray Lasers

    Author : Benedikt J. Daurer; Filipe Maia; Tomas Ekeberg; Janos Hajdu; Richard Neutze; Uppsala universitet; []
