2. 21. Structural and thermodynamical basis for molecular recognition between engineered binding proteins

   Author : Jakob Dogan; Per-Åke Nygren; John E. Ladbury; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; protein structure; induced fit; binding thermodynamics; NMR spectroscopy; protein engineering; protein-protein interactions; protein stability; calorimetry; Structural biochemistry; Strukturbiokemi;

   Abstract : The structural determination of interacting proteins, both as individual proteins and in their complex, complemented by thermodynamical studies are vital in order to gain in-depth insights of the phenomena leading to the highly selective protein-protein interactions characteristic of numerous life processes. This thesis describes an investigation of the structural and thermodynamical basis for molecular recognition in two different protein-protein complexes, formed between so-called affibody proteins and their respective targets.

4. 22. Carbon Nitride : Characterization and Protein Interactions

   Author : Torun Berlind; Hans Arwin; Pentti Tengvall; Hans Hultman; Thomas E. Tiwald; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

   Abstract : This thesis concerns synthesis and characterization of carbon-based materials and theinvestigation of the possible use, of a selection of these materials, in biomedicalapplications. Protein adsorption and blood plasma tests were used for this purposeutilizing a surface sensitive technique called spectroscopic ellipsometry. READ MORE

5. 23. Bio-Nano Interactions : Synthesis, Functionalization and Characterization of Biomaterial Interfaces

   Author : Yixiao Cai; Xia Wei; Mikael Karlsson; Martin Andersson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Bioactive surfaces; nanocrystalline diamond; hydroxyapatite; protein secondary structure; protein absorption; auditory neurons; single crystalline rutile; nano morphology; surface functionalisation; in vitro biomineralisation; translucent nano-ceramics; bio-window material; material characterisation.; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

   Abstract : Current strategies for designing biomaterials involve creating materials and interfaces that interact with biomolecules, cells and tissues.  This thesis aims to investigate several bioactive surfaces, such as nanocrystalline diamond (NCD), hydroxyapatite (HA) and single crystalline titanium dioxide, in terms of material synthesis, surface functionalization and characterization.

6. 24. Protein and Cell Interactions with Nanostructured Surfaces

   Author : Emma Westas; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bacteria; titanium dioxide; implant associated infections; metabolomics; cellular interactions; hydroxyapatite; immune complement activation; silica; nanoparticles; photocatalysis; protein adsorption; Nanostructured implants;

   Abstract : A great challenge of today’s implant development is to construct a surface that promotes tissue integration and avoids bacterial colonization. To avoid implant related infections, many argue that a surface promoting strong cell adhesion and tissue integration in favour for bacterial adhesion would solve the problem, the so-called race for the surface concept.

7. 25. Electrostatic Interactions In and Between Biomolecules

   Author : Mikael Lund; Beräkningskemi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Theoretical chemistry; quantum chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical chemistry; Protein-protein interactions; Molecular modelling; Proton binding; Protein electrostatics; Monte Carlo simulation; Charge regulation; Teoretisk kemi; kvantkemi;

   Abstract : Electrostatic interactions in bio-molecular systems are important not only in the living cell but also in more technical applications. Using molecular simulation as well as approximate theories the properties of a number of aqueous protein solutions have been studied. READ MORE
