2. 11. Exploration of analytical methods to study motif-mediated host-virus protein-protein interactions

   Author : Eszter Kassa; Ylva Ivarsson; Gilles Travé; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein-protein interaction; short linear motif; affinity purification-mass spectrometry; virus; SARS-CoV-2; TBEV; Analytical Chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

   Abstract : Proteins are responsible for countless processes in living creatures, but most often they do not perform these tasks alone. Rather, they engage in interactions with other proteins, creating whole protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. READ MORE

4. 12. Macrolide Antibiotics in Bacterial Protein Synthesis

   Author : Martin Lovmar; Måns Ehrenberg; Tanel Tenson; Peter B. Moore; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; protein synthesis; macrolides; resistance; initiation of translation; non-competitive inhibitors; kinetics; translation accuracy; proof-reading; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

   Abstract : Macrolides are a large group of clinically relevant antibiotics that inhibit protein synthesis by binding to the large ribosomal subunit in the peptide exit tunnel, close to the peptidyl transferase center (PTC). We have shown that the peptide length of the resulting peptidyl-tRNA drop-off products is proportional to the distance between the PTC and the respective macrolide in the tunnel. READ MORE

5. 13. Development and applications of NMR relaxation methods to study protein and ligand dynamics

   Author : Sven Wernersson; Biofysikalisk kemi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nuclear magnetic resonance; NMR; NMR relaxation; Method development; Protein dynamics; BRD4; Galectin 3; Kärnmagnetisk resonansspektroskopi; proteindynamik; Metodutveckling; NMR; BRD4; Galektin 3;

   Abstract : This thesis involves the study of proteins. These molecules exist in many variants, and perform most of our bodily functions. This includes signaling (for example the presence of capsaicin, which makes food spicy), molecular transport (including oxygen), catalysis (including food digestion) and part of our body structure (such as muscles).

6. 14. Polymer and Protein Physics : Simulations of Interactions and Dynamics

   Author : Anna Sinelnikova; Johan Nilsson; Carl Caleman; Erik Lindahl; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; polymers; proteins; Monte Carlo; molecular dynamics; phase diagram; renormalisation group; SPI; polymer effective model; coarse-graining; Physics with specialization in Biophysics; Fysik med inriktning mot biofysik;

   Abstract : Proteins can, without any exaggeration, be called the "building blocks of life". Their physical properties depend not only on the chemical structure but also on their geometric shape. In this thesis, I investigate protein geometry using several different methods.We start with a coarse-graining model to study the general behavior of polymers. READ MORE

7. 15. Design, Synthesis and Characterization of Small Molecule Inhibitors and Small Molecule : Peptide Conjugates as Protein Actors

   Author : Jonas Nilsson; Lars Baltzer; Ingemar Kvarnström; Thomas Olsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Synthetic receptor; Peptide inhibitor conjugate; Peptide protein surface interactions; General Lead Discovery Library; Combinatorial Chemistry; Solid Phase Chemistry; Targeted Library; Thrombin inhibitor; Fluorescence; Surface Plasmon Resonance; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

   Abstract : This thesis describes different aspects of protein interactions. Initially the function of peptides and their conjugates with small molecule inhibitors on the surface of Human Carbonic Anhydrase isoenzyme II (HCAII) is evaluated. READ MORE
