  1. 11. Technoeconomic analysis of T7 RNA polymerase manufacturing in E.coli for South Africa

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Alicia Lundh; [2022]
    Keywords : T7 RNA polymerase; enzyme manufacturing; mRNA vaccine manufacturing; chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The enzyme, T7 RNA polymerase (T7 RNAP), is one of the most expensive raw materials required for mRNA vaccine production. As part of establishing South African manufacturing of mRNA vaccine, it is of interest to investigate the feasibility and profitability of South African manufacturing of T7 RNAP. READ MORE

  2. 12. Structure-based design of new antiviral substances against the Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi; Lunds universitet/Beräkningskemi

    Author : Elin Öberg; [2022]
    Keywords : x-ray crystallography; protein crystallization; Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus; structure-based drug design; applied biochemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV) is a highly infectious alphavirus responsible for severe outbreaks and epidemics in the Americas. The nonstructural protein 2 (nsP2) cysteine protease plays a fundamental role in the VEEV replication process, and is therefore, an attractive drug target for structure-based drug design using x-ray crystallography.

  3. 13. Oligosaccharide Analysis - Assessment of the DNS Method and Specification of Glucans Processed with CGTase

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

    Author : Matilda Johansson; [2022]
    Keywords : CGTase; DNS; Chromatography; HPAEC; HPAE; Carbohydrate; Carbohydrates; Glucans; Cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; Flory; Enza; Enzyme; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this study, the reagent 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) and high-performance anion exchange chromatography (HPAEC) were used for carbohydrate characterisation. It was revealed that the DNS reaction is not exclusive to reducing ends as commonly thought, but rather that the reagent reacts with other parts of the carbohydrate molecules as well. READ MORE

  4. 14. Development of an AVI-tagged phagemid vector

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Barathram Swaminathan; [2022]
    Keywords : phage display; affibody; directed evolution; protein engineering; protein interactions; fagdisplay; affibody; riktad evolution; protein engineering; proteininteraktioner;

    Abstract : Fagmider är ett kraftfullt verktyg som använts för att uttrycka heterologa proteiner på fagvirus i metoder som exempelvis riktad evolution via fagdisplay av proteinbinliotek. Monovalent uttryck genom fagemider lider av ett överflöd av kala fager som är svåra att rensa bort. READ MORE

  5. 15. Production and evaluation of enzymatically processed oat fibres as potential prebiotics

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

    Author : Elin Johansson; [2021]
    Keywords : Arabinoxylan; AXOS; L.brevis; B.adolescentis; Biotechnology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Insoluble oat bran fibres, with substantial arabinoxylan (AX) content, are obtained as a byproduct from industrial processing of oat. By further processing it is possible to solubilise and hydrolyse AX into (arabino)xylo-oligosaccharides ((A)XOS). READ MORE
