  1. 1. The production of recombinant 6LZE_A and NS2B-NS3 in E. coli

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)

    Author : Raluca Svensson; [2024]
    Keywords : coronavirus; dengue; protease; pandemic; SARS-Cov-2; DENV; viral replication; proteins; Escherichia coli; DL-BAPNA; computational modeling; recombinant protein production; biotechnology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Even though the first coronavirus pandemic was registered in 1965, SARS-CoV-2 was better acknowledged when it caused the worldwide pandemic in 2019 in which millions of individuals lost their lives. Due to its facile way of spreading from one individual to another, the number of infected cases has gone up to more than 750 million to this day. READ MORE

  2. 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

  3. 3. 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

  4. 4. Effects of phosphorylation on the ADP-ribosylation activity of PARP16

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Virginia Martín Cristóbal; [2023]
    Keywords : ADP-ribosylation; Kinases; PARP16; Phosphorylation; UPR biochemistry; Biochemistry; Chemistry;

    Abstract : PARP16/ARTD15 is an intracellular mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase that catalyzes auto- and heteromodification by transfer of a single ADP-ribose moiety. It belongs to the ADP-ribosyltransferase (ART) superfamily. READ MORE

  5. 5. Characterization of diazepam binding inhibitor as a structure-function tool for human ɣ-aminobutyric acid-A receptors

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Szabolcs Simon-Guth; [2023]
    Keywords : γ-Aminobutyric acid sub-type A receptors; diazepam binding inhibitor; receptor modulation; recombinant protein expression; two-electrode voltage clamp; dose-response curve; Gammaaminosmörsyrareceptor typ A; Diazepambindande hämmare; receptormodulering; reckmbinant proteinexpression; spänningsklämma med två elektroder; dosresponskurva;

    Abstract : Gammaaminosmörsyrareceptorer typ A (GABAAR) är pentameriska ligandstyrda kloridkanaler som uppvisar neurohämmande egenskaper. Därmed är de primära läkemedelsmål för flera ångestdämpande och lugnande läkemedel som används för att minska förekomsten av aktionspotential i neuroner. READ MORE
