    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Sebastian Bauer; [2023]
    Keywords : Na ; K -ATPase NKA ; Co-evolution; Dimerization; Direct coupling analysis DCA ; Molecular dynamic MD simulation; Contact filtering; Mapping; Na ; K -ATPas NKA ; Samevolution; Dimerisering; Direkt kopplingsanalys DKA ; Molekylär dynamisk MD simulering; Kontaktfiltrering; Kartläggning;

    Abstract : Does the active membrane transporter, Na+,K+-ATPase dimerize? If it does, whatis the functional benefit? Does it increase or decrease the turnover rate? Theseare still unanswered questions and current research topics. Previous studies havedemonstrated dimerizations in closely related proteins of the P-type ATPase family. READ MORE

  2. 2. Monte Carlo Simulations of Oligomerized Na+,K+-ATPase

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Jakob Jönsson; [2022]
    Keywords : biophysics; p-type ATPase; enzyme activity; simulation; biofysi; p-typ ATPas; enzym aktivitet; simulering;

    Abstract : Na+,K+-ATPase (NKA) is a membrane protein which assists in maintaining the electrochemical potential across the cell membrane. It has been suggested that the oligomerization of NKA may play a role in intracellular regulation of NKA activity. READ MORE

  3. 3. LMCA1 as prototype system for the study of Ca2+ pumps in nanodisks

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Konstantinos Magkakis; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Membrane proteins make up approximately a third of all proteins and serve as prime drug targets, yet their structural and biophysical characterization presents some unique challenges due to their hydrophobic surfaces and flexible structure. The main goal of this project was to compare, with the use of activity assays, two methods employed for the experimental handling of membrane proteins. READ MORE
