  2. 1. Gene fusion in protein engineering : design of novel peptides and bifunctional enzymes

    Author : Sarah Fredriksson; Tillämpad biokemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cadmium; Bifunctional enzyme; Catalytic triad; Channeling; Coenzyme recycling; Galactose dehydrogenase; ß-Galactosidase; Gene fusion; Hexapeptide; Lactate dehydrogenase; Linker region; Multifunctional enzymes; Oligomeric protein; NADH; Phage; OmpA; Biochemistry; Biokemi; metabolism; Biotechnology; Bioteknik;

    Abstract : The gene fusion technique is widely used in protein engineering and in this thesis it constitutes the basis of both the construction of artificial bifunctional enzymes and the display of two novel peptides. Artificial bifunctional enzymes have been used as model systems in the studies of native multifunctional enzymes and proximity effects within these complexes. READ MORE

  4. 2. Luminescent textiles using biobased products : A bioinspired approach

    Author : Sweta Iyer; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bioinspired; biobased; bioluminescent; photoluminescent; textile; luminous bacteria; enzymes; immobilization; plasma; riboflavin; flavin mononucleotide; sustainable; digital printing; functionalization; Textil och mode generell ; Textiles and Fashion General ;

    Abstract : Nature has designed a few biobased molecules that are responsible for bioluminescence and photoluminescence in some living species. In this thesis, the potential use of luminescence phenomena existing in nature toward the attainment of luminescent textiles was explored. READ MORE

  5. 3. Multifunctional biomimetic materials for corneal regeneration

    Author : Mohammad Mirazul Islam; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The cornea is the outermost layer of the eye, which is responsible for transmitting 95% of the incident light to the retina for vision and provides 70% of the focusing power of the eye. Corneal disease is a primary cause of blindness worldwide. READ MORE

  6. 4. Multifunctional carbohydrate-based soft materials from cereal by-products

    Author : Secil Yilmaz Turan; Francisco Vilaplana; Rosana Moriana; Amparo Jiménez Quero; Anna Ström; KTH; []
    Keywords : wheat bran; corn bran; hemicellulose; arabinoxylan; ferulic acid; subcritical water extraction; acetylation; films; hydrogels; crosslinking; regeneration; antioxidant activity; vetekli; majskli; hemicellulosa; arabinoxylan; ferulsyra; subkritisk vattenextraktion; acetylering; filmer; hydrogeler; tvärbindning; regeneration; antioxidant aktivitet; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : Cereal production generates large quantities of by-products every year, which still remain underutilized. The hemicellulose fractions from cereal by-products are anticipated to play an important role in tomorrow's sustainable and bio-based circular economy. READ MORE

  7. 5. The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster GSTE6 and E7; characterization, immobilization and transgenic overexpression

    Author : Muhammad Aslam; Bengt Mannervik; Ralf Morgenstern; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Glutathione transferases; drosophila melanogaster; isothiocyanates; toxicity; immobilization; kinetics; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Abstract : Glutathione transferases (GSTs) are multifunctional enzymes that are universally distributed in most eukaryotes and prokaryotes. They play a pivotal role in the metabolism and detoxication of numerous endogenous and exogenous electrophiles by conjugating them with ubiquitous tripeptide glutathione. READ MORE
