  2. 21. Structure Elucidations of Bacterial Polysaccharides using NMR Spectroscopy and Bioinformatics

    Author : Jonas Ståhle; Göran Widmalm; Evgeny Vinogradov; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbohydrates; Bioinformatics; NMR Spectroscopy; Lipopolysaccharide; Glycosyltransferase; Computer-Assisted Structure Elucidation; O-antigen; Biosynthesis; Organic Chemistry; organisk kemi;

    Abstract : Carbohydrates are ubiquitous components in nature involved in a range of tasks. They cover every cell and contribute both structural stability as well as identity. Lipopolysaccharides are the outermost exposed part of the bacterial cell wall and the primary target for host-pathogen recognition. READ MORE

  4. 22. Proteomics of the upper airways : studies on a new lipopolysaccharide-binding protein, PLUNC

    Author : Bijar Ghafouri; Bo Jonsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : There is now significant interest in identifying, quantifying and characterizing the human proteome, and new powerful techniques (proteomics) have evolved to deal with this giant task. In the present study, proteomics have been applied for the first time to map the proteins of the upper airways. READ MORE

  5. 23. Immune responses to lipopolysaccharide in relation to allergic disease : a TLR4 gene polymorphism and endotoxin exposure

    Author : Anna Lundberg; Malin Fagerås Böttcher; Outi Vaarala; Marita Troye-Blomberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Background: Allergic diseases have increased during the last decades, particularly in affluent countries, possibly due to a reduced and/or altered microbial exposure during infancy. Activation of the immune system by microbes early in life is probably required for accurate maturation of the immune system and tolerance development. READ MORE
