  1. 26. Effect of DNAJB6 on α-synuclein amyloid fibril aggregation and dis-aggregation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Biofysikalisk kemi

    Author : Josef Getachew; [2023]
    Keywords : α-synuclein; alpha-synuclein; chaperones; DNAJB6; the unhappy chaperone; parkinsons disease; biophysical chemistry; biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Amyloid proteins are a group of proteins with the ability to form large fibrillar aggregates, identifiable by their cross-β core structure. These aggregates are linked to several different neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease and due to the growing rate of people diagnosed, there is a need to combat these diseases.

  2. 27. Characterization of potato protein and its calcium binding capacity

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

    Author : Signe König; Erika Thomson; [2023]
    Keywords : Patatin; Calcium; Food supplement; Calcium Assay; Alcalase; potato protein; Applied biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Calcium is essential for the human body as it has functions in the nervous system, bones and formation of teeth. Deficiency in this important nutrient can be detrimental to health and cause life-long issues. Calcium can be found in various foods, like dairy products, but certain plant-based alternatives to milk needs to be fortified with calcium. READ MORE

  3. 28. Non-canonical amino acid incorporation as a strategy for labeling membrane bound Na+/K+-ATPase for fluorescence microscopy imaging

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Adam Johansson Holopainen; [2023]
    Keywords : ncAAs; fluorescence microscopy; amber suppression; nonsense suppression; Na K -ATPase; protein labeling; click chemistry; genetic code expansion; onaturliga aminosyror; fluorescensmikroskopi; Na K -ATPas; proteinmärkning; klickkemi; genetisk kodexpansion;

    Abstract : Natrium-kaliumpumpen spelar en väsentlig roll i en rad fysiologiska funktioner då den upprätthåller den elektrokemiska gradienten över cellmembranet. Ytterligare så är störningar i dess funktion associerade med flera neurologiska sjukdomar. READ MORE

  4. 29. Comparison and optimization of extracellular vesicle (EV) capturing on functional thin films for their molecular profiling

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Prattakorn Metem; [2023]
    Keywords : extracellular vesicle; plasmonic nanohole array; atomic force microscopy; fluorescence analysis; extracellulära vesiklar; nanohålsuppsättning; atomkraftsmikroskopi; fluorescensanalys;

    Abstract : Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer encapsulated nanoparticles which have emerged as an excellent source of biomarkers for multiple diseases, including cancer. However, they are highly heterogeneous in their molecular compositions which remains a major challenge hindering the utilization of their biomarker potential. READ MORE

  5. 30. Co-evolutional anaylsis of the Na+,K+-ATPase’s β-subunit dimerization

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Sebastian Bauer; [2023]
    Keywords : Na ; K -ATPase NKA ; Co-evolution; Dimerization; Direct coupling analysis DCA ; Molecular dynamic MD simulation; Contact filtering; Mapping; Na ; K -ATPas NKA ; Samevolution; Dimerisering; Direkt kopplingsanalys DKA ; Molekylär dynamisk MD simulering; Kontaktfiltrering; Kartläggning;

    Abstract : Does the active membrane transporter, Na+,K+-ATPase dimerize? If it does, whatis the functional benefit? Does it increase or decrease the turnover rate? Theseare still unanswered questions and current research topics. Previous studies havedemonstrated dimerizations in closely related proteins of the P-type ATPase family. READ MORE
