  2. 1. The solution conformations of macrocycles. Applications in the exploration of weak interactions and in drug development

    Author : Emma Danelius; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Macrocycles; cyclic peptides; NMR; solution conformational analysis; NAMFIS; β-hairpin; weak interactions; halogen bonding; protein-protein interaction; bioactive conformation; macrolides; cell permeable conformation.;

    Abstract : Understanding the solution conformation and dynamics of molecules with biological relevance, as well as the impact of their conformation stabilizing weak interactions, is for example important for drug design. Macrocycles have attractive pharmaceutical properties, and are of special interest as drug leads for targets with large, flat and featureless binding sites like protein-protein interfaces. READ MORE

  4. 2. Inhibition of the MDM2/p53 Interaction Design, Synthesis and Evaluation of MDM2 Inhibitors

    Author : Mariell Pettersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein-protein interactionProtein-protein interaction; MDM2 p53 interaction; MDM2 inhibitors; α- helix mimetics; β-hairpin; 2; 5-diketopiperazine; spiro-2; 5-diketopiperazine; purine; 8- triazolyl purine; solution conformational analysis; NAMFIS; fluorescence;

    Abstract : Numerous essential cellular processes are regulated by protein-protein interactions (PPIs) and PPIs have therefore been recognised as potential new drug targets. The transcription factor p53 is often referred to as the guardian of the genome due to its involvement in DNA repair, induction of cell cycle arrest and cellular apoptosis. READ MORE

  5. 3. Host-Guest Interactions for Structural Analysis of Organic Molecules : Development of new Tools for Stereochemical Characterization

    Author : Sandra Olsson; Adolf Gogoll; Kari Rissanen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metalloporphyrins; host-guest systems; bis-porphyrin tweezers; stiff stilbene macrocycles; organic synthesis; porphyrin binding studies; NMR; ECCD; Chemistry with specialization in Organic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot organisk kemi;

    Abstract : The focus of this thesis is on the development of molecular tweezers as host-guest systems for stereochemical characterization of small organic molecules.There are two central problems to stereochemical characterization of small molecules. READ MORE

  6. 4. Modulation of Molecular Properties : Host–Guest Interactions for Structural Analysis and Chemical Reactions

    Author : Sara Norrehed; Adolf Gogoll; Jerker Mårtensson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; host-guest systems; conformational analysis; NMR spectroscopy; bispidines; porphyrins; Kemi med inriktning mot organisk kemi; Chemistry with specialization in Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the construction, use and modulation of various host–guest systems, from small bispidines for binding of inorganic ions to bisporphyrin clips for supramolecular systems.Small flexible molecules undergo fast conformational movements when in solution. READ MORE

  7. 5. Shape Matters : Characterization of Weak Interactions and Macrocycles by Conformational Analysis

    Author : Stefan Peintner; Máté Erdélyi; Oliver Zerbe; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : When studying conformational ensembles, it is most challenging to identify and characterize rapidly interconverting individual conformers. A precise description of the structural dynamics, however, rewards viable knowledge on conformation stabilizing forces as well as on the impact of external influences on the conformer composition.
