  1. 1. Protein structure prediction : Zinc-binding sites, one-dimensional structure and remote homology

    Author : Nanjiang Shu; Sven Hovmöller; Bruce Donald; Geoff Barton; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein structure prediction; zinc-binding; profile; homology detection; shape string; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Structural Chemistry; strukturkemi;

    Abstract : Predicting the three-dimensional (3D) structure of proteins is a central problem in biology. These computationally predicted 3D protein structures have been successfully applied in many fields of biomedicine, e.g. family assignments and drug discovery. READ MORE

  2. 2. Fluorescent Probes and Protein Misfolding: Methods and Applications

    Author : Irem Nasir; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein misfolding; fluorophores; filter-trap; site-specific fluorophore labeling; amyloid-beta; microscopic rate constants; solvatochromic probes; alpha-synuclein; lipid vesicles; nanoparticles; protein adsorption;

    Abstract : Protein misfolding is a frequently occurring event in living cells and without the quality control, the consequences are disasterous. In this thesis, we studied protein misfolding in vitro by employing a variety of fluorophores, to either detect the highly ordered aggregates of intrinsically disordered proteins/peptides or slight misfolding of a natively folded protein.

  3. 3. Making Visible the Proximity Between Proteins

    Author : Carl-Magnus Clausson; Ola Söderberg; Jens Coorssen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Proximity ligation assay; In situ PLA; rolling circle amplification; protein interaction; protein-protein interaction; in situ; single cell; single molecule; protein complex; antibody; cancer; tissue section; microscopy; image analysis; system biology; multiplex; dynamic range; methods development; systems biology; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

    Abstract : Genomic DNA is the template of life - the entity which is characterized by a self-sustaining anatomical development, regulated signaling processes, the ability to reproduce and to respond to stimuli. Through what is classically known as the central dogma, the genome is transcribed into mRNA, which in turn is translated into proteins. READ MORE

  4. 4. Microfluidic Methods for Protein Microarrays

    Author : Michael Hartmann; Johan Roeraade; Mike Taussig; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : Protein microarray technology has an enormous potential for in vitro diagnostics (IVD)1. Miniaturized and parallelized immunoassays are powerful tools to measure dozens of parameters from minute amounts of sample, whilst only requiring small amounts of reagent. READ MORE

  5. 5. Engineering of small IgG binding domains for antibody labelling and purification

    Author : Sara Kanje; Sophia Hober; Cecília Roque; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibody; labelling; purification; Protein G; Protein A; protein engineering; protein design; combinatorial selection; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : In protein engineering, rational design and selection from combinatorial libraries are methods used to develop proteins with new or improved features. A very important protein for the biological sciences is the antibody that is used as a detecting agent in numerous laboratory assays. READ MORE
