4. 2. Synthesis, Function, and Inactivation of Blood Coagulation Factor V

   Author : Kristoffer Sørensen; Malmö Klinisk kemi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; activated protein C; heparin; calcium binding; R2 haplotype; Blood Coagulation; Factor V; Clinical chemistry; Klinisk kemi;

   Abstract : Blood coagulation factor V (FV) is a 330 kDa plasma glycoprotein. Activated FV (FVa) is a non-enzymatic cofactor to activated Factor X in the activation of prothrombin that occurs during coagulation. READ MORE

5. 3. Domain swapping as a molecular mechanism in amyloidosis

   Author : Maria Wahlbom; Avdelningen för klinisk kemi och farmakologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Clinical chemistry; Klinisk kemi; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; oligomer; dimer; domain swapping; fibril; cystatin C; amyloidosis;

   Abstract : Amyloidosis is a group of diseases characterized by a change in protein conformation resulting in aggregation and tissue deposition of amyloid fibrils. One variant of cystatin C, L68Q cystatin C, is highly amyloidogenic and persons carrying the corresponding gene suffer from massive cerebral amyloidosis leading to brain hemorrhage and death.

6. 4. Apolipoprotein M – Studies of Structure and Function

   Author : Josefin Ahnström; Malmö Klinisk kemi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; signal peptidase; signal peptide; crystallization; Apolipoprotein; lipocalin; HDL; coronary heart disease;

   Abstract : Apolipoprotein M (apoM), a 25 kDa plasma protein, is found in all major lipoprotein classes, although the majority is found in high density lipoproteins (HDL). ApoM has been suggested to be involved in the formation of and adding to the antiatherogenic functions of HDL, but its function is still not completely known. READ MORE

7. 5. Tumor Selective Antiproliferative Naphthoxylosides

   Author : Ulrika Aili; Glykobiologigruppen; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glycosaminoglycan; proteoglycan; heparan sulfate; xyloside; naphthoxyloside; histone H3 acetylation;

   Abstract : Proteoglycans (PG) are highly anionic macromolecules consisting of a core protein covalently substituted with long unbranched polysaccharide chains called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). PGs are central components in multicellular organisms, and they may occur in the extracellular matrix (ECM), at the cell surface, or in the secretory pathway. READ MORE
