  1. 1. Predicting Chemical-Gene Interactions

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Ali Chishti; [2023-08-04]
    Keywords : Pesticides; Small streams; Prediction modelling; Chemical-protein-gene interactions; Aquatic organisms;

    Abstract : Pesticide use in agriculture has become a growing concern as it can have detrimental effects on the environment. The excessive use of these chemicals often leads to them seeping into nearby water bodies, causing harm to aquatic organisms. READ MORE

  3. 2. Machine Learning Prediction of Enzymes’ Optimal Catalytic Temperatures

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

    Author : Camille Finlinson Porter; [2023-03-22]
    Keywords : enzyme; protein; amino acid; protein structure; optimal catalytic temperature;

    Abstract : Enzymes that have been genetically engineered to withstand high temperatures are used by industry to make products with less waste and pollution. Different features of protein structure affect the optimal catalytic temperature ("topt") at which enzymes catalyze reactions most efficiently. READ MORE

  4. 3. Transient state UV spectroscopy of Tyrosine and Tyrosine-containing protein

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Hongjian Chen; [2023]
    Keywords : Tyrosine; Calmodulin; Autofluorescence; Transient-state monitoring; Electronic state transitions; Tyrosin; Calmodulin; Autofluorescens; Transient-tillståndsövervakning; Elektroniska tillståndsövergångar;

    Abstract : The aromatic amino acids tryptophan, tyrosine, and phenylalanine have been extensively used for different label-free protein studies. These investigations extract information on protein conformations and interactions from the emitted fluorescence's intensity, wavelength, and/or polarization. READ MORE

  5. 4. Decoding Hormone Interactions: Investigating Health Status Using Hormone Signatures in Blood

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Stina Brunell; Elis Pettersson Gradin; Victor Englöf; Lovisa Wigertz; Embla Persson; Josephine Maglio; [2023]
    Keywords : PEA; hormone; interaction; blood; protein hormone; proteomic; disease; biomarker;

    Abstract : Hormones are integral molecules in the human body, controlling most body systems and maintaining homeostasis in the body. They function as signal molecules for communication between cells, and are often secreted by one tissue with another as target. READ MORE

  6. 5. Effects of mixed surfactant system on chemical and physical stability of human growth hormone

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Karnsinee Viriyayudhakorn; [2023]
    Keywords : human growth hormone; surfactant; refolding; protein stability; physical degradation; chemical degradation; pharmaceutical technology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In protein formulation, addition of surfactants is commonly executed to enhance product stability and shelf-life. The reason is that surfactants can protect proteins against surface-induced aggregation. However, the interaction between surfactant and protein depends on the type of surfactant used. READ MORE
