2. Genome Evolution and Host Adaptation in Bartonella
Abstract : Bacteria of the genus Bartonella infect the red blood cells of a wide range of wild and domestic mammals and are transmitted between hosts by blood-sucking insects. Although most Bartonella infections are asymptomatic, the genus contains several human pathogens. READ MORE

4. Exploring the Role of the PDZ Domain in a Supramodule
Abstract : The postsynaptic density (PSD) is a large, dense and membraneless compartment of proteins associated below the postsynaptic membrane bilayer, and which constantly undergoes morphological alteration in response to synaptic activity. Formation of PSD is associated with liquid-liquid phase separation of scaffold proteins in complex with other PSD proteins. READ MORE

5. Unique Solutions to Universal Problems : Studies of the Archaeal Cell
Abstract : Archaea is one of the three domains of life and studies of archaeal biology are important for understanding of life in extreme environments, fundamental biogeochemical processes, the origin of life, the eukaryotic cell and their own, unique biology. This thesis presents four studies of the archaeal cell, using the extremophilic Sulfolobus and ocean living Nitrosopumilus as model systems. READ MORE
