  1. 1. Crystallization, optimization, and crystal structure determination of ligands in complex with galectin-8N

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : George Larsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Biochemistry; Structural Biochemistry; Galectin-8; Protein Crystallization; Chemistry;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the protein “galectin-8N” which is a lectin protein that takes part in several physiological functions such as inflammation, autophagy, cell migration, and more. The project has three objectives: to observe and increase the reproducibility of crystallization of two variants (wildtype and mutant) of the human protein galectin-8N and to analyze the binding site when three different novel ligands are each inserted.

  2. 2. J/psi suppression via string interactions in Au-Au collisions at 200 GeV/NN

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Julian Boy; [2020]
    Keywords : Suppression; gold-gold collisions; string interactions; fluxtubes nuclear modification factor; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In 2018 the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) reported sig- nals of a strongly coupled quark gluon plasma. This plasma is thought to be the reason for J/psi suppression when a fraction of the produced J/psi's dissolves due to the high-energy density of quarks and gluons. READ MORE

  3. 3. Automated Orienting of Water Molecules in Neutron Crystal Structures

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Axl Eriksson; [2019]
    Keywords : Teoretisk kemi; Theoretical chemistry; Crystallography; Neutron crystallography; X-ray crystallography; Phenix.refine; Method development; Model improvement; Chemistry;

    Abstract : A protein’s function is directly related to its structure, which is in a water medium where it is affected by hydrogen bonds and the hydrophobic effect. These interactions are in turn dependent on the water molecules’ orientations around the protein. Therefore, it is vital to have correct orientations for the water molecules. READ MORE

  4. 4. Modelling of the Analog Electronic Stage of a Detection System for Hard X-ray Astronomy

    University essay from

    Author : Gonzalo Campos Garrido; [2012]
    Keywords : Technology; X-ray; Germanium detector; Simulation; Preamplifier; PheniX; Teknik;

    Abstract : Germanium detectors are used by the scientic community to study cosmic X-ray sources. In order to localize the exact 3D position of an X-ray interaction, double-sided strip detectors are used. Each strip requires a single readout electronic stage to convert induced charge into a voltage pulse. READ MORE

  5. 5. Simulation of Reactor Transient and Design Criteria of Sodium-cooled Fast Reactors

    University essay from Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Filip Gottfridsson; [2010]
    Keywords : SFR; sodium-cooled; fast reactors; reactors; A.U.R.N.; AURN; transient; negative transient; liquid-cooled; Phénix; Phenix; SFRs; core-flowering; core flowering; Serpent;

    Abstract : The need for energy is growing in the world and the market of nuclear power is now once more expanding. Some issues of the current light-water reactors can be solved by the next generation of nuclear power, Generation IV, where sodium-cooled reactors are one of the candidates. READ MORE
