1. Constructing supported lipid bilayers from native cell membranes
University essay from Lunds universitet/Biofysikalisk kemiAbstract : The aim of this MSc-project was to investigate whether it is possible to incorporate native cell membrane components from Jurkat T cells into supported lipid bilayers, SLBs, to produce a model membrane system better resembling the native cell membranes in T cells. The procedure of forming native-like SLBs (nSLB) was adapted from an existing protocol and is done through the deposition of hybrid vesicles onto a cleaned glass slide. READ MORE

2. Investigating the effect of salt concentrations on the immune cell membrane protein CD45 D1-D4 in a supported lipid bilayer using hydrodynamic trapping
University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionenAbstract : The immune system is a very complex system, aimed to protect the body from the many dangers that loom around us. A well-functioning immune system can fight of most invaders, remove foreign particles that entered our bodies, and take care of dead cells. READ MORE

3. Restriction in the membrane diffusion over the dividing septum of Escherichia Coli cells measured by Flourescence Recovery After Photobleaching
University essay from KTH/Experimentell biomolekylär fysikAbstract : This diploma thesis is a follow up work of a previous paper by Johan Strömqvist et. al. [1] In their article they presented a novel method on how to determine the Z-ring radius and the contraction in dividing Escherichia coli. This was done by fluorescent recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) measurements in the cytosol of E. READ MORE

4. An Investigation of the Nano-Organization of Glucose Transporters, Glut1 and Glut3, in the Mammalian Plasma Membrane
University essay from Institutionen för vård och naturAbstract : Glucose is a monosaccharide and fuel for body, it cannot pass through membrane by simple diffusion so, integral transmembrane proteins named glucose transporters (Gluts) are involved in the regulation of the movement of glucose between the extracellular and intracellular spaces within the body. GLUT1 and GLUT3 have previously been shown by cold detergent extraction methods to reside in distinct plasma membrane domains in non-polarized mammalian cells, with GLUT1, but not GLUT3, residing in detergent-resistant membrane (DRM) domains.
