The Folding Energy Landscape of MerP

Description : This thesis is based on studies, described in four papers, in which the folding energy landscape of MerP was investigated by various techniques. MerP is a water-soluble 72 amino acid protein with a secondary structure consisting of four anti-parallel β-strands and two α-helices on one side of the sh...

Protein Folding Studies on the Ribosomal Protein S6: the Role of Entropy in Nucleation

Author(s) : Lindberg, Magnus
Description : One of the most challenging tasks remaining in the field of biochemistry is the one of understanding how the information within the amino acid sequence of proteins translates into a unique structure. Solving this problem would lead to endless possibilities for application in the medical and biotechn...

The Role of Proteases in Plant Development

Description : Proteases play key roles in plants, maintaining strict protein quality control and degrading specific sets of proteins in response to diverse environmental and developmental stimuli. Similarities and differences between the proteases expressed in different species may give valuable insights into the...

Protein folding studies of human superoxide dismutase and ALS associated mutants

Author(s) : Lindberg, Mikael
Description : Proteins are among the most abundant biological macromolecules. The cellular machinery is coupled to exact structural shape and properties of the more than 100 000 different proteins. Still, proteins can sometimes completely change their character and as a result trigger neuro degenerative disease. ...

Molecular characterization and evolution of alpha-actinin : from protozoa to vertebrates

Author(s) : Virel, Ana
Description : alpha-actinin is a ubiquitous protein found in most eukaryotic organisms. The ability to form dimers allows alpha-actinin to cross-link actin in different structures. In muscle cells alpha-actinin is found at the Z-disk of sarcomeres. In non-muscle cells alpha-actinin is found in zonula adherens or ...

Proteomic analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana

Author(s) : Granlund, Irene
Description : A complete proteome analysis of the chloroplast stroma, using 2D-PAGE, from spinach and Arabidopsis was performed. To improve the identification of proteins a computer program named SPECLUST was used. In SPECLUST, peak masses that are similar in many spots cluster together because they originate fro...

Development of competence in biochemical experimental work : Assessment of complex learning at university level

Author(s) : Bergendahl, Christina
Description : Biochemistry is part of life science: a fast developing multidisciplinary area. The overall aims of this thesis and the work underlying it were to find ways in which to develop competence in biochemistry at university level and to assess complex learning. A particular interest was the development of...
