Molecular basis of two novel dehalogenating activities in bacteria : structure/function relationships in an evolutionary context
Author(s) :
Jong, René Marcel de,
Description :
It is generally believed that evolution is at the heart of species differentiation of all living organisms, a hypothesis that was first stated by Charles Darwin in his revolutionary work "The origin of Species". Although this hypothesis was originally based on phenotypic similarities between differe...

Immunoprotection of pancreatic islets : in vitro studies into causes of microencapsulated graft failure
Author(s) :
Groot, Martijn de,
Description :
In conclusion, three major factors contribute to the limited graft survival of encapsulated islets. These are limited immunoprotective properties of the capsules, a lack of biocompatibility of the encapsulated islets, and an insufficient blood supply for the islets in microcapsules. To overcome th...

Selection of novel lipases and esterases for enantioselective biocatalysis
Author(s) :
Dröge, Melloney Joyce,
Description :
This thesis describes the application of lipolytic enzymes of Bacillus subtilis for the enantiopure production of the chiral intermediate 1,2-O-isopropylidene-sn-glycerol (IPG) out of racemic ester compounds. (+)- IPG is an important chiral synthon in the synthesis of the biologically active form of...

Regulation of hepatobiliary transport function by nuclear receptors
Author(s) :
Kok, Tineke,
Description :
The work described in this thesis deals with the role of nuclear receptors in transcriptional
control and function of transporters involved in the generation of bile. Bile formation is
one of the major functions of the liver. Membrane transport proteins that primarily determine
bile formation are lo...

Joodse stadjers : de joodse gemeenschap in de stad Groningen, 1796-1945
Author(s) :
Poel, Stefan van der,
Description :
Naarmate de joden zich meer ontpopten tot ‘achtenswaardige burgers’, verloor de joodse traditie aan kracht. Dat concludeert historicus Stefan van der Poel, die het moeizame laveren van de Groningse joodse gemeenschap tussen integratiestreven en identiteitsbehoud onderzocht. Het eigenlijke startpunt ...

Whole body protein metabolism in chronic hemodialysis
Author(s) :
Veeneman, Jorden Marcus,
Description :
To summarise, evidence suggests that protein-energy malnutrition is associated with mor-bidity and mortality in chronic hemodialysis patients. Urea kinetics are used as a clinical marker for protein intake and oxidation. Chapter 2 focuses on the relation between pro-tein and urea metabolism, which ...
