1. 1. Exploration of Zinc finger CCCH domain-containing protein 11A’s role in mammalian cell NFkB Pathway

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

   Author : Jianxiang Wang; [2019]
   Keywords : ZC3H11A; NFkB; HeLa cells; Viral-host interaction;

   Abstract : ZC3H11A (ZC3) protein has been reported to be part of the TREX (TRanscription-EXport) nuclear export system for mammalian cells. According to our previous publication, ZC3 not only plays an unelucidated role in the TREX complex, but also supports the growth of several human nucleus replicating virus, such as influenza virus, adenovirus (HAdV), herpes simplex virus and HIV.

   Keywords : Huntington’s disease; Spinocerebellar ataxia; Amyloids; Protein aggregation; Herpes Simplex Virus 1; HSV-1; Virus infection; oligonucleotides; Filter retardation Assay; Dot Blot.; Huntingtons sjukdom; Spinocerebellära ataxier; Amyloider; Protein aggregering; Herpes Simplex Virus 1; HSV-1; Virus infektion; Oligonukleotider; Filter retardation Assay; Dot Blot.;

   Abstract : Huntington’s disease (HD) and Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) are incurable neurodegenerative diseases that affect the central nervous system. Amyloids, highly organized protein aggregates, are a hallmark for many neurodegenerative diseases. The presence and accumulation of amyloids are toxic and constitute the major cause of neuron cell death. READ MORE

4. 3. Cloning, Expression and Purification of a Mutant Tomato Thymidine Kinase 1 for Crystallography

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

   Author : Mohamad Nesrini; [2015]
   Keywords : protein expression; protein engineering; Azidothymidine; thymidine kinase; deoxyribonucleoside kinases; nucleosides; nucleoside analog; suicide gene therapy; tillämpad biokemi; applied biochemistry; BEVS.; Technology and Engineering; Chemistry;

   Abstract : Thymidine kinase 1 from tomato (ToTK1) is a newly discovered deoxyribonucleoside kinase (dNK) that has been subject to study due to its in vitro and in vivo properties making it an interesting suicide gene candidate for the treatment of brain tumors. The ToTK1 phosphorylates the nucleoside analogue 3-azido-2,3-dideoxythymidine (azidothymidine, AZT) equally well as its natural substrate thymidine (dThd). READ MORE
