  1. 11. Bioinformatics analysis on the drug design supporting systems

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Emilia Guszpit; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This research project investigates the interactions of staurosporine, a potent kinase inhibitor, with 11 ligands, highlighting its role in drug design and bioinformatics. Focusing on the selectivity and promiscuity of staurosporine in binding to protein kinases, the study employs the MANORAA database for data extraction. READ MORE

  3. 12. Determination of Proton Beam Waist Positions Using Beam Position Monitors

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/European Spallation Source ESS AB; Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik

    Author : Gustav Gird Fahlström; [2022]
    Keywords : ESS; European Spallation Source; Proton beam; waist; BPM; Method; transverse; beam dynamics; beam physics; Lattice Error; Matrix formalism; Python; trajectory simulation; physics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this work, we examine a novel method for the determination of proton beam waist locations using beam position monitors. Based on the lattice of the final transport line section of the European Spallation Source linac, a simplified version of the beam line composed of quadrupole magnets and correctors is constructed in Python using a matrix formalism.

  4. 13. Intracellular Membrane Remodeling Mechanisms Revealed by Cryo-EM

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Author : Sigrid Mack; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Endophilin B1 (EnB1) is a BAR protein located in the cytosol that controls membrane dynamics of different organelles such as the mitochondria and the Golgi, as well as autophagosomes. It has been suggested that this protein coordinates membrane remodeling events during essential cell death processes. READ MORE

  5. 14. Aromatic Ring Flips and Local Volume Fluctuations in BPTI

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Biofysikalisk kemi

    Author : Simon Enbom; [2022]
    Keywords : Biophysical Chemistry; Molecular Dynamics; Protein Dynamics; Activation Volume; Aromatic Ring Flips; BPTI; Biology and Life Sciences; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Aromatic ring flips are a classic example of a dynamic process in proteins. Discovered decades ago, methodological limitations hindered progress at the time. Ring flips have gained new interest and experimentalists can measure the flip rate and thermodynamic quantities associated with it. READ MORE

  6. 15. Actin filaments as an indicator of impaired neuronal differentiation mediated by disruption of the retinoic acid signalling pathway

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Hanin Salloum; [2022]
    Keywords : Retinoic acid; actin; cytoskeleton; neural progenitor C17.2 cells; neuron; Coronin 1C; Cdc42 Cdc42 effector protein 4 gene ; Fn1 Fibronectin ; Wnt pathway.;

    Abstract : Retinoic acid (RA) is a well-known neurodevelopmental signaling molecule. It is reported to induce effects on neurite formation in differentiating neurons and to interfere with the actin cytoskeleton. Therefore, this project aimed to investigate the mechanisms behind effects of RA on the actin cytoskeleton of developing neurons using the C17. READ MORE
