  1. 1. Terpenoid Plant Metabolites - Structural Characterization and Biological Importance

    Author : Eliana Maldonado; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Terpenoid Sesquiterpene lactones Breast-cancer cell lines Cytotoxicity Antileishmanicial Structural characterization;

    Abstract : In response to the challenges of their local environments, organisms produce of a large number of chemical diverse compounds with complex stereochemistry and reactive functional groups. These characteristics enable them to interact and bind specifically to biological target molecules and exert various biological activities, and have assured that Natural products continues to be an important source of bioactive compounds, which, for example, facilitate the search for new lead structures that can be developed into new pharmaceuticals.

    Abstract : It is essential to understand the mechanisms of action of anticancer drugs in order to obtain good treatment results. I have in the present thesis studied clinically used anticancer agents as well as other agents that induce tumor cell death. READ MORE

  3. 3. Functional genomics at the interface of protein expression and biophysical analysis

    Author : Xiaoqiu Wu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Protein characterization is central to any functional genomics effort, hence protein expression and purification play fundamental roles in these initiatives. In this study strategies for protein expression in E. coli were analysed, and several parameters were investigated respect to high-level expression of functional proteins. READ MORE
