1. Intermediate State Stabilisation in Enzyme Catalysis Structural studies of two serine proteases and a photosynthetic reaction centre
Abstract : Enzymes play a key role in every organisms life. They catalyse chemical reactions and may also respond to external stimulus. The reoccurring theme of this thesis is how biologically relevant information can be gleaned from X-ray structures of the enzymes. READ MORE

2. X-ray free-electron laser based methods for structural and ultrafast dynamics studies of a photosynthetic reaction centre
Abstract : Life on earth is fuelled by the energy of sunlight, which must first be captured and converted into a chemical energy form useful to the cell. This process is known as photosynthesis and the major pathway of this energy conversion is via photosynthetic reaction centres. READ MORE

3. Big Lessons from Small Bacteria : Following Photo-driven Processes in Photosynthetic Systems with Multidimensional Spectroscopy
Abstract : Sunlight is a plentiful, continuously flowing source of energy, fuelling life on Earth as we know it. To use this potential, plants, cyanobacteria and photosynthetic bacteria evolved to absorb solar radiance and convert it into a chemically stable form by performing a process known as photosynthesis.

4. Conformational Flexibility in Protein Function: Dynamics of S100A4, Photosynthetic Reaction Centre and the Prenylating Enzymes UbiA and MenA
Abstract : Proteins are the most versatile macromolecules and they are essentially involved in the biological processes throughout all living organisms. The three dimensional structure of proteins and their dynamical properties underlie their biological function and knowledge about protein structure and dynamics contributes to a detailed understanding of biochemical processes.

5. Lipidic-sponge phase crystallisation and time-resolved Laue diffraction studies of bacterial photosynthetic reaction centres
Abstract : Photosynthesis is the procedure of light capture and converting it into a chemical energy source for the cell. The work-horse of this process are photosynthetic reaction centres, which capture photons with the help of their antenna complexes and use these photons to drive charge separation reactions, and ultimately chemiosmotic coupling.
