  2. 1. Structure and Activity of Circular Plant Proteins : Cytotoxic Effects of Viola Cyclotides

    Author : Anders Herrmann; Ulf Göransson; Lars Bohlin; Douglas Kinghorn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Pharmacognosy; cyclotide; cytotoxic; anti-tumour; macrocyclic; cyclic cystine knot; Alpine violet; Sweet violet; Viola; Violaceae; chemical modifications; structure-activity studies; mass spectroscopy; cDNA clones; Farmakognosi;

    Abstract : Cyclotides are a family of small and macrocyclic proteins that have been found in Violacaee and Rubiaceae plant species. These proteins contain a cystine knot: two disulfides bonds together with their connecting peptide backbone form an embedded ring which is penetrated by a third disulfide bond. READ MORE

  4. 2. Transcriptome Analyses of the Nematode-trapping Fungus Monacrosporium haptotylum

    Author : Margareta Tholander; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; Biologi; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Pathogenic fungi; Nematophagous fungi; Nematodes; Biological control; cDNA microarray; Transcriptome analysis; Nematode-trapping fungi; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Abstract : Nematode-trapping fungi are soil living organisms with the ability to infect and kill nematodes. These fungi have developed specialized infection structures, traps for the capture of nematodes. To be able to identify genes in nematode-trapping fungi that are involved in the infection of nematodes cDNA microarrays were constructed. READ MORE

  5. 3. Molecular Characterization of Genomic Amplifications in Pancreatic Cancer

    Author : Markus Heidenblad; Avdelningen för klinisk genetik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; FISH; Clinical genetics; PCR; cDNA microarray; array-based CGH; expression profiling; genomic profiling; Pancreatic cancer; gene amplification; Klinisk genetik;

    Abstract : Pancreatic cancer includes multiple histologic subtypes that show large differences in their clinical and biological characteristics. Despite this diversity, more than 85% of the neoplasms in the organ are malignant ductal adenocarcinomas, which are the focus of the present thesis. READ MORE

  6. 4. Glutathione transferases : molecular cloning, site-directed mutagenesis and structure-function studies

    Author : Gun Stenberg; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Three distinct glutathione transferases (GST) cDNA clones were obtained by screening of tumour cell line cDNA libraries. The cDNA clones were expressed in Escherichia coli and the enzymes characterized. Rat GST 8-8 is the only member in the multifunctional GST family for which a specific cellular function has been proposed. READ MORE

  7. 5. Molecular cloning of genes coding for three inducible antibacterial proteins of Hyalophora cecropia

    Author : Kleanthis G. Xanthopoulos; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The humoral immune system in the pupa of the giant silk moth Hyalophora cecropia can be induced by an injection of non-pathogenic bacteria. Three families of antibacterial proteins are synthesized, namely lysozyme, the attacins and the cecropins. READ MORE
