  1. 1. Methods and Potentials of Kraft Lignin Esterification

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Taoran Xu; [2023]
    Keywords : Kraft lignin; acetylation; fatty acid esterification; quantitative 31P NMR; lignin nanoparticles; Kraftlignin; acetylering; fettsyreesterifiering; kvantitativ 31P NMR; lignin nanopartiklar;

    Abstract : Lignin, en av huvudkomponenterna i lignocellulosabiomassa, utgör en stor mängd av sidoströmen från massaindustrin. Lignin är aromatiska makromolekyler som förekommer i rikliga mängder i naturen och uppvisar unika antioxidant-, uv-skyddande, anti-ultravioletta, antikorrosiva och antimikrobiella egenskaper, etc. READ MORE

  2. 2. Automating Water Orientation in Neutron Crystallography using Convolutional Neural Networks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

    Author : Simon Bakran; [2022]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : One important aspect of determining the functionality of proteins is to find the direction of the dipole moment of surrounding water molecules. This is equivalent to finding the position of the hydrogen in water, however with the current atomistic model building tools this is a tedious and time-consuming task. READ MORE

  3. 3. Association of RABL6 withAP3 in trafficking membrane

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Moloud Farrokgi; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Via the membrane trafficking system, proteins and macromolecules dispense in different pathways into cells. Moreover, it transports proteins inside and outside of cells. AP3 and LAMP1 are crucial in the biogenesis of lysosomes and sorting the cargo proteins in the trafficking membrane. READ MORE

  4. 4. Screening for carbapenemase-associated biomarkers in Klebsiella oxytoca using matrixassisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrom

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Hannah Uppström; [2022]
    Keywords : MALDI-TOF MS; carbapenems; Verona integron-encoded metallo-β-lactamase; carbapenem resistance; AST biomarkers;

    Abstract : Antibiotic resistant bacteria are threatening human health, and the resistance is progressingfaster than the development of new antimicrobial compounds. Antibiotic resistant infections cost enormous sums of money and resources, but most importantly human lives. READ MORE

  5. 5. 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.
