  2. 21. A molecular biological study of Alzheimer's disease : investigation of amyloid precursor protein, amyloid precursor-like protein 2 and presenilin-1

    Author : Janet A Johnston; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The devastating symptoms of Alzheimer's disease result from a progressive regional neurodegenerative process, the cause of which is unknown. Current research suggests that several different mechanisms may be involved, perhaps acting at different points in a common pathological pathway. READ MORE

  4. 22. Cancer proteomics : characterisation of protein expression in human epithelial tumours

    Author : Ayodele A Alaiya; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis; protein expression; mass spectrometry; epithelial tumour; heterogeneity;

    Abstract : Defining differences in protein expression between tumour cells of various degrees of malignancy is a first step in the development of markers for tumour diagnosis. In this thesis, the expression of multiple proteins in benign and malignant human ovarian, breast and prostate tumours was examined using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). READ MORE

  5. 23. Protein folding without loops and charges

    Author : Martin Kurnik; Mikael Oliveberg; Kevin W. Plaxco; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein folding; folding cooperativity; protein aggregation; protein charges; protein engineering; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Going down the folding funnel, proteins may sample a wide variety of conformations, some being outright detrimental to the organism. Yet, the vast majority of polypeptide molecules avoid such pitfalls. Not only do they reach the native minimum of the energy landscape; they do so via blazingly fast, biased, routes. READ MORE

  6. 24. Organization of mitochondrial gene expression in yeast : Specific features of organellar protein synthesis

    Author : Kirsten Kehrein; Martin Ott; Thomas A Fox; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mitochondria; translation; bc1 complex; ribosome; gene expression; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Mitochondria contain their own genetic system, encoding key subunits of the oxidative phosphorylation system. These subunits are expressed by an organelle-specific gene expression machinery. READ MORE

  7. 25. Hematopoiesis, Kazal Inhibitors and Crustins in a Crustacean

    Author : Young-A Kim; Kenneth Soderhall; Irene Soderhall; Shun-ichiro Kawabata; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Biochemistry; innate immunity; cytokine; hematopoietic tissue; ATP synthase β subunit; Kazal; antibacterial peptides; Biokemi;

    Abstract : Hemocytes are important as storage and producers of proteins of the innate immune defence, as well as actors of the cellular immune response. Therefore the hematopoietic process is critical for survival of most invertebrates. READ MORE
