  2. 1. Cleavage Specificity of Mast Cell Chymases

    Author : Mattias K. Andersson; Lars Hellman; Gunnar Pejler; Per Venge; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Biology; Immunology; Mast cell; Serine protease; Chymase; Cleavage specificity; Phage display; Biologi;

    Abstract : Mast cells (MC) are potent inflammatory cells that are known primarily for their prominent role in IgE mediated allergies. However, they also provide beneficial functions to the host, e.g. in bacterial and parasitic defence. READ MORE

  4. 2. Assembly and proteolytic cleavages of gel-forming mucins

    Author : Martin Lidell; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : mucins; MUC2; MUC5AC; dimer; trimer; cleavage; Entamoeba histolytica; cysteine protease;

    Abstract : Gel-forming mucins are large glycoproteins constituting the main structural component of themucus layer protecting epithelial surfaces of the body. This thesis aims to a deeper understandingof how gel-forming mucins are synthesized and assembled, and how they may interact with othermolecules. READ MORE

  6. 4. Poly(A)-Specific Ribonuclease (PARN)

    Author : Yan-Guo Ren; Eric Westhof; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell and molecular biology; Poly A -specific ribonuclease; PARN; deadenylation; processive; oligomeric; cap interacting; aminoglycoside; active site; FE2 -mediated cleavage; metal ion switch; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Molekylär cellbiologi; Molecular Cellbiology;

    Abstract : Degradation of the mRNA 3'-end located poly(A) tail is an important step for mRNA decay in mammalian cells. Thus, to understand mRNA decay in detail, it is important to identify the catalytic activities involved in degrading poly(A). READ MORE

  7. 5. Structural studies of some bacterial polysaccharides and extension of a method for lipid A cleavage

    Author : Reine Eserstam; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Serratia marcescens; Hafnia alvei; Vibrio cholerae; polysaccharide; NMR;

    Abstract : The focus of the work presented in this thesis has been to study the structures of the capsular polysaccharide from Serratia marcescens O14:K12, and the O-antigen polysaccharides from Hafnia alvei strain 10457 and Vibrio cholerae serogroup 037. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was the primary technique employed. S. READ MORE
