  1. 1. Enhancing the therapeutic effect of biological drugs with protein engineering : Focusing on pre-clinical Alzheimer’s disease therapy

    Author : Fadi Rofo; Greta Hultqvist; Stina Syvänen; Sara Mangsbo; Joy Zuchero; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer’s disease; amyloid-beta; blood-brain barrier; transferrin receptor; protein-drugs; multivalent-bispecific antibodies;

    Abstract : Aggregation of the amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) is one of the main pathological hallmarks in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The soluble Aβ aggregates (oligomers and protofibrils) have shown to be the most harmful species. Hence, targeting these aggregates can be of therapeutic potential. READ MORE

    Abstract : Genomic DNA is the template of life - the entity which is characterized by a self-sustaining anatomical development, regulated signaling processes, the ability to reproduce and to respond to stimuli. Through what is classically known as the central dogma, the genome is transcribed into mRNA, which in turn is translated into proteins. READ MORE

  3. 3. Computational Protein Evolution : Modeling the Selectivity and Promiscuity of Engineered Enzymes

    Author : Klaudia Szeler; Shina C. Lynn Kamerlin; Mikael Widersten; Maria Ramos; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; enzymes; kinetics; catalysis; density functional theory; empirical valence bond; diesters; evolution; promiscuity; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Enzymes are biological catalysts that significantly increase the rate of all biochemical reactions that take place within cells and are essential to maintain life. Many questions regarding their function remain unknown. READ MORE

  4. 4. Development and Validation of Bioanalytical Methods : Application to Melatonin and Selected Anti-Infective Drugs

    Author : Susanne Römsing; Yngve Bergqvist; Åsa Emmer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; african trypanosomiasis; melatonin; malaria; antiretroviral drugs; lumefantrine; tafenoquine; lamivudine; nevirapine; zidovudine; sampling paper; dried blood spots; capillary blood; antimalarial drugs; solid-phase extraction; liquid chromatography; Chemistry; Kemi; Analytical Chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis describes bioanalytical methods for measuring melatonin and some anti-infective drugs in biological fluids. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) or protein precipitation was used for enrichment and purification of the analytes and Liquid Chromatography (LC) was used to analyze the samples. READ MORE

  5. 5. Systems Biology of Protein Secretion in Human Cells: Multi-omics Analysis and Modeling of the Protein Secretion Process in Human Cells and its Application

    Author : Rasool Saghaleyni; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
