  2. 1. Outer membrane proteins of Yersinia pestis : Ail and OmpA

    Author : Sara Celinda Schesser Bartra; Hans Wolf-Watz; Virginia Miller; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Yersinia pestis; outer membrane proteins; Ail; ompA; Microbiology; immunology; infectious diseases; Mikrobiologi; immunologi; infektionssjukdomar; immunologi; Immunology; mikrobiologi; Microbiology; Infectious Diseases; infektionssjukdomar;

    Abstract : A vast number of studies have been completed on the virulence determinants of Yersinia spp.; however, the focus of many of these studies has been on the virulence plasmid and the plasmid-encoded Type three secretion system. Nevertheless, many chromosomal genes whose products are directly involved in virulence have also been identified. READ MORE

  4. 2. Protein production in the E. coli cell envelope

    Author : Thomas Baumgarten; Jan-Willem de Gier; Dirk-Jan Scheffers; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; E. coli; protein biogenesis; recombinant proteins; membrane proteins; secretory proteins; protein displays; outer membrane vesicles; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Proteins fulfil essential functions in every cell and malfunctioning proteins are often the cause of diseases. On the other hand, proteins like antibody fragments or hormones can be used to treat diseases. READ MORE

  5. 3. Plasma membrane arabinogalactan proteins

    Author : Lars Snogerup; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; arabinogalactan protein plant development cell-cell interaction plasma membrane; Plant biochemistry; Växtbiokemi;

    Abstract : Arabinogalactan proteins (AGPs) are proteoglycans found at the outer side of the plasma membrane and in the extracellular matrix of plants. To be able to study the plasma membrane bound AGPs, a method using SDS-agarose gel electrophoresis (SDS-AGE) was developed to overcome the problems associated with electrophoretic separation of highly glycosylated proteins.

  6. 4. Interaction of Calcium Ions with Lipid Membranes

    Author : Baharan Ali Doosti; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phospholipid bilayer membrane; membrane dynamics; micromanipulation; calcium ions; cell migration.; membrane nanotube; membrane tubular protrusions; calcium ion concentration gradient; membrane bending; giant unilamellar vesicle;

    Abstract : Bilayer membranes enclose and shield the biological cell and its inner compartments, as well as the tubular networks that exist within and between the cells. Due to their fluidic nature, the membranes are incredibly dynamic and flexible, which allows them to bend, reshape and fuse in response to mechanical and chemical stimuli within their natural microenvironments.

  7. 5. Impact of glucose uptake rate on recombinant protein production in Escherichia coli

    Author : Emma Bäcklund; Gen Larsson; Olle Holst; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; AIDA-autotransporter; Escherichia coli; fed-batch; glucose uptake rate; integral membrane proteins; outer membrane proteins; periplasmic retention; phosphotransferase system; recombinant proteins; specific growth rate; surface expression; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Escherichia coli (E. coli) is an attractive host for production of recombinant proteins, since it generally provides a rapid and economical means to achieve high product quantities. READ MORE
