  1. 1. Functional Characterisation of Effectors from Biotrophic and Necrotrophic Wheat Pathogens in Heterologous Expression Systems

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology

    Author : Mark Melchior; [2023]
    Keywords : wheat; Blumeria graminis; Parastagonospora nodorum; effectors;

    Abstract : Effector proteins play an important role in the interactions between fungal pathogens and their host plant. Recognition of effectors can lead to localised cell death in plants. The necrotrophic fungus Parastagonospora nodorum utilises this mechanism to induce cell death in wheat and cause Stagonospora nodorum blotch (SNB). READ MORE

  3. 2. Functional analysis of effectors from Blumeria graminis and their effect on the plant microbiome

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology

    Author : Victor Olsson; [2022]
    Keywords : proteins; Heterologus protein expression; Effector proteins; Nicotiana benthamiana; Pichia pastoris; Blumeria graminis f.sp. tritici;

    Abstract : With an expected population of 10 billion by the next century, agricultural production has to increase at the same pace to match such demand. One of the main obstacles to achieving this are the pathogenic microorganisms that reduce food quality and yields every year. READ MORE

  4. 3. Use of a Sperm-Hyaluronan Binding Assay for evaluation of sperm quality in dromedary camels

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Anna Kotila-Ioannou; [2022]
    Keywords : Camel Semen; Dromedary camel; Sperm-Hyaluronan Binding Assay; sperm quality analysis;

    Abstract : The objective of this study was to assess the potential of Hyaluronan Binding Assay (HBA) to predict freezability and fertilization capacity of dromedary camel spermatozoa, and to determine if conventional sperm quality parameters and precursor of A-Kinase Anchoring Protein 4 (proAKAP4) values correlate with HBA results. Two semen samples were collected from each of six male camels. READ MORE

  5. 4. Development of an AVI-tagged phagemid vector

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Barathram Swaminathan; [2022]
    Keywords : phage display; affibody; directed evolution; protein engineering; protein interactions; fagdisplay; affibody; riktad evolution; protein engineering; proteininteraktioner;

    Abstract : Fagmider är ett kraftfullt verktyg som använts för att uttrycka heterologa proteiner på fagvirus i metoder som exempelvis riktad evolution via fagdisplay av proteinbinliotek. Monovalent uttryck genom fagemider lider av ett överflöd av kala fager som är svåra att rensa bort. READ MORE

  6. 5. Sequence Diversity andAntibody Response to Autologous and Heterologous MSP2 Antigens in a Prospective Malaria Immunology Cohort

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

    Author : Julia Zerebinski; [2021]
    Keywords : Malaria; sub-Saharan Africa; merozoite surface protein; antibody; immune response; antigen target;

    Abstract : Malaria, caused by the Plasmodium parasite and transmitted by mosquitoes, kills almost half a million people each year. Drug resistance in both the parasite and its vector make preventative measures increasingly important, and a fully protective vaccine is absolutely necessary to eradicate the disease. READ MORE
