2. 1. Arctic clouds - interactions with radiation and thermodynamic structure

   Author : Joseph Sedlar; Michael Tjernström; Annica Ekman; Johannes Verlinde; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arctic; stratus; radiation; thermodynamic structure; cloud radiative forcing; seasonal transition; Meteorology; Meteorologi; atmosfärvetenskap; Atmospheric Sciences;

   Abstract : Clouds play in important role in the climate system through their interaction with radiation. Globally, clouds tend to cool the Earth by reflecting solar radiation and shading the surface. READ MORE

4. 2. Design, Synthesis and Thermodynamic Studies of Galectin Ligands

   Author : Maria Luisa Verteramo; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; galectin; conformational entropy; solvation; thermodynamic; interaction; molecular recognition; thiodigalactoside; diastereomer; structure-based design;

   Abstract : The signaling within and between cells in biology is governed by molecular recognition between natural or synthetic ligands and proteins. This thesis project aimed to investigate the thermodynamic properties of specific interaction between synthetic ligands and galectin proteins. READ MORE

5. 3. Formation stability and electronic structure of surfaces and interfaces from first principles

   Author : Jochen Rohrer; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; band structure; van der Waals interaction; electronic structure; graphane; graphene; atomic structure; growth; thin film; interface; density functional theory; CVD; Alumina; nucleation;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with two closely interwoven aspects of first-principle(density functional theory) materials modeling:(1)~prediction of atomic structure & chemical composition,and (2)~prediction of electronic properties.In the first part, we focus on atomic structure (AS) and chemical composition (CC) of surface and interface systems.

6. 4. Studies on Nucleic Acids – Structure and Dynamics

   Author : Johan Isaksson; Jyoti Chattopadhyaya; Douglas H. Turner; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bioorganic chemistry; nucleic acids; modified nucleotides; NMR; structure; dangling-end; single-stranded; thermodynamics; hydration; Bioorganisk kemi; Bioorganic chemistry; Bioorganisk kemi;

   Abstract : This thesis is based on six papers, Papers I-VI, focusing on the interplay between the stabilizing elements of nucleic acids self-assembly; hydrogen bonding, stacking and solvent effects. In Paper I we investigate how the substitution of the O4' for CH2 in the sugar moiety of adenosine (2'-deoxyaristeromycin) at the A6 position of the Dickerson-Drew dodecamer makes the two modified bases exist in a dynamic equilibrium between Hoogsteen and Watson-Crick base pairing in the NMR time scale.

7. 5. Structure determination and thermodynamic stabilization of an engineered protein-protein complex

   Author : Elisabet Wahlberg; Per-Åke Nygren; Bengt-Harald Jonsson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; affibody; protein structure; coupled folding; NMR spectroscopy; protein stability; protein-protein interactions; binding thermodynamics; isothermal titration calorimetry; protein engineering; Structural biochemistry; Strukturbiokemi;

   Abstract : The interaction between two 6 kDa proteins has been investigated. The studied complex of micromolar affinity (Kd) consists of the Z domain derived from staphylococcal protein A and the related protein ZSPA-1, belonging to a group of binding proteins denoted affibody molecules generated via combinatorial engineering of the Z domain.
