  2. 11. In silico protein design for the enhancement of protein stability and function

    Author : David A. Hueting; Per-Olof Syrén; Hjalmar Brismar; Zbynek Prokop; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein Engineering; Ancestral sequence reconstruction; terpene cyclases; SARS-CoV-2; Spike protein; PET; PETase; rational engineering; Proteinteknik; Förfäders sekvensrekonstruktion; Terpencyklas; SARS-CoV-2; Spike protein; PET; PETas; rationell proteinteknik; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Enzymes are natures catalysts that increase the rate of a chemical reaction. The increased rate of a reaction is required to be able to sustain life. Despite the huge impact of enzymes, they are not perfect catalysts. READ MORE

  4. 12. Thermodynamical and structural properties of proteins and their role in food allergy

    Author : Louise Rundqvist; Göran Larsson; Göran Karlsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Protein folding; NMR; Food allergy; allergen; protein interactions; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Proteins are important building blocks of all living organisms. They are composed of a defined sequence of different amino acids, and fold into a specific three-dimensional, ordered structure. The three-dimensional structure largely determines the function of the protein, but protein function always requires motion. READ MORE

  5. 13. Structure and host-receptor recognition studies of Gram-negative bacterial fimbriae assembled via the chaperone/Usher Pathway

    Author : Saumendra Prasad Roy; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC), enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC), and Yersinia enterocolitica (YE) are the principle etiological agents of acute and persistent diarrhea worldwide including resource-poor and industrialized regions. READ MORE

  6. 14. Exploring the mechanistic details of Gram-positive Type 4 Secretion Systems

    Author : Lena Lassinantti; Ronnie Berntsson; A. Elisabeth Sauer-Eriksson; Sjoerd Wanrooij; Samuel Wagner; Umeå universitet; []

    Abstract : Hospital acquired (i.e. nosocomial) infections and antibiotic resistance are large issues in the world today, with about 1.3 million people estimated to have died from antibiotic resistant infections in 2019 alone, and these problems are on the rise. READ MORE

  7. 15. Exploring the Molecular Dynamics of Proteins and Viruses

    Author : Daniel Larsson; David van der Spoel; Modesto Orozco; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : Knowledge about structure and dynamics of the important biological macromolecules — proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and sugars — helps to understand their function. Atomic-resolution structures of macromolecules are routinely captured with X-ray crystallography and other techniques. READ MORE
