11. Crystallographic studies of gluconate kinase
Abstract : The first steps of gluconate metabolism in Escherichia coli are the transport of gluconate into the cell by a gluconate transport system, followed by phosphorylation to gluconate-6- phosphate by gluconate kinase. There exist two such different pathways, Grill and GntIl, respectively. READ MORE

12. Protein Kinase Inhibition in Late Cerebral Ischemia after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
Abstract : The cerebral ischemia that occur after a subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) often results in death or severe disability and is a significant cause of stroke. Our hypothesis is that cerebral ischemia leads to pathophysiological receptor changes on the vascular smooth muscle cells. READ MORE

13. Studies of PDGF receptor signaling in vitro and in vivo
Abstract : Platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) signaling is essential for proliferation, migration and survival of cells of mesenchymal origin; however, its deregulation has been associated with various diseases, including cancer. The aim of this thesis was to clarify the molecular mechanisms of PDGFR signaling regulation. READ MORE

14. Deoxyribonucleoside kinases in bacteria, plants and humans
Abstract : Deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) are the building blocks of DNA and can be synthesized either de novo or via salvage pathways. The first reaction in the salvage pathway of dNTPs is the conversion of deoxyribonucleosides (dN) into the deoxyribonucleoside monophosphate (dNMP). READ MORE

15. Structure-Function Studies of Enzymes from Ribose Metabolism
Abstract : In the pentose phosphate pathway, carbohydrates such as glucose and ribose are degraded with production of reductive power and energy. Another important function is to produce essential pentoses, such as ribose 5-phosphate, which later can be used in biosynthesis of nucleic acids and cofactors. READ MORE
