  1. 21. Biochemical analysis of type II Metacaspase ( mcII - Pa )

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Molecular Biology (until 131231)

    Author : Mahmudur Rahman; [2010]
    Keywords : Metacaspase; appoptosis; Norway spruce; caspase; biochemical; plant cell death;

    Abstract : Programmed Cell Death (PCD) is a physiological process of cell death to remove unwanted cells and damaged cells. This physiological process is a cascade of biochemical reactions triggered and completed by Caspase, a cysteine protease, in animals. After discovering PCD in plants scientists tried to find caspase or similar enzyme in plants. READ MORE

  3. 22. How to kill a parasite : a report : an inhibitor study of ribose-5-phosphate isomerase B from Giardia lamblia as a possible drug target

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Molecular Biology (until 131231)

    Author : Daniel Steinhauf; [2010]
    Keywords : Giardia lamblia; Ribose-5-phosphate isomerase; Giardiasis; Inhibitor; Parasite; Diarrhea; Pentose phosphate pathway; 4PEH;

    Abstract : The parasite Giardia lamblia is known to cause the disease giardiasis, which is a major threat against the public health, especially in developing countries. A recent study has shown that over 200 million people have giardiasis now, and about 500 000 more people are infected every year. A G. READ MORE

  4. 23. Q1U8S3 - a cousin to Majastridin

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Akademin för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Andreas Ottosson; [2009]
    Keywords : Majastridin; Q1U8S3;

    Abstract : The aim of this work was to determine if the protein Majastridin found in the proteobacterium Rhodobacter blasticus has a functional relative in the hypothetical protein Q1U8S3/ B3XNV1 found in Lactobacillus reuteri. To be able to study the protein, it was overexpressed in  E. coli-cells and purified. As a starting material, the L. READ MORE

  5. 24. Expression of the Majastridin-like protein from Streptococcus pneumonia for crystallization and antibody production

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Akademin för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Josefin Persson; [2009]
    Keywords : Majastridin; Streprococcus pneumonia;

    Abstract : The F1 part of F0F1-ATP synthase in the proteobacterium Rhodobacter blasticus contains five different proteins, but when the DNA was sequenced a sixth gene was found in the operon. The protein that corresponds to the sixth gene has been named Majastridin. READ MORE

  6. 25. Structure-function studies of biomass degrading enzymes : crystallization of EndoT from Hypocrea jecorina and Cel5H from Saccharophagus degradans, and enzyme hharacterization of Cel5H

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Molecular Biology (until 131231)

    Author : Jing Zhang; [2009]
    Keywords : Crystallography; EndoT; Enzyme characterization; HPLC; Endoglucanase activity;

    Abstract : The purpose of this project was to investigate the structure-function relationship of two carbohydrate active enzymes, Endo-N-acetyl-β-(D)-glucosaminidase (EndoT) from Hypocrea jecorina and Cel5H from Saccharophagus degradans.The enzyme Endo-T from H. READ MORE
