1. Cellulose Biosynthesis in Oomycetes
Abstract : Oomycetes have long been considered as a separate class within the kingdom Fungi, but they are in fact closer to brown algae. They are currently classified in the Stramenopile eukaryotic kingdom, which includes heterokont algae and water molds. READ MORE

2. Functional characterization of cellulose and chitin synthase genes in Oomycetes
Abstract : Some species of Oomycetes are well studied pathogens that cause considerable economical losses in the agriculture and aquaculture industries. Currently, there are no chemicals available that are environmentally friendly and at the same time efficient Oomycete inhibitors. READ MORE

3. Characterization of specific domains of the cellulose and chitin synthases from pathogenic oomycetes
Abstract : Some oomycetes species are severe pathogens of fish or crops. As such, they are responsible for important losses in the aquaculture industry as well as in agriculture. Saprolegnia parasitica is a major concern in aquaculture as there is currently no method available for controlling the diseases caused by this microorganism. READ MORE

4. Theoretical Studies of Protein-Ligand Interactions
Abstract : The protein-ligand interaction is an important issue in rational drug design and protein function research. This thesis focuses on the study of protein-ligand interactions using various molecular modeling methods, which are used in combination to predict the binding modes and calculate the binding free energies of several important protein-ligand systems, as summarized below.

5. Structure and lipid interactions of membrane-associated glycosyltransferases : Cationic patches and anionic lipids regulate biomembrane binding of both GT-A and GT-B enzymes
Abstract : This thesis concerns work on structure and membrane interactions of enzymes involved in lipid synthesis, biomembrane and cell wall regulation and cell defense processes. These proteins, known as glycosyltransferases (GTs), are involved in the transfer of sugar moieties from nucleotide sugars to lipids or chitin polymers. READ MORE
