  3. 2. Evaluation of strategies for construction of protease libraries in yeast.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Author : Sidharth Jaya Sankar; [2022]
    Keywords : Yeast; GFP-fusion technology; protease; applied microbiology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Proteases are a group of enzymes that are involved in breaking down larger proteins into smaller polypeptides or single amino acids, and they are used in various applications. In this project, the potential of budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as host for the construction of protease libraries is evaluated. READ MORE

  4. 3. Study of fibrillation processes of amyloid-like β-lactoglobulin protein

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Jose Nixon; [2021]
    Keywords : bLG; Thioflavin-T Fluroscence; Fibrillation; bLG; Thioflavin-T fluroscens; fibrillering;

    Abstract : Bovint β-laktoglobulinprotein (bLG) är ett litet globulärt protein med 162 aminosyrarester, som vanligtvis finns i mjölkvassle. Under sura förhällanden dissocierar dessa dimera proteiner och bildar amyloidliknande fibriller. READ MORE

  5. 4. Recombinant Food Proteins Expressed in E. coli as Complement to Plant Proteins in the Protein Shift

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

    Author : Anthon Izad Khast Wellerfeld; [2021]
    Keywords : recombinant food proteins; protein shift; protein functionality; plant-based; meat analogs; dairy; food technology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Increased awareness regarding nutrition, environmental sustainability, and animal welfare has sparked a trend to shift away from animal proteins. The phenomenon is referred to as the protein shift and has resulted in a higher demand for alternative protein sources. READ MORE

  6. 5. Optimizing signal peptides for expression of recombinant antibodies in HEK293 cells

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Gustav Myhrinder; [2020]
    Keywords : Signal peptide; antibody; mammalian cell; HEK293; secretory pathway;

    Abstract : Monoclonal antibodies are well-established as a therapeutic in the biopharmaceutical market, targeting a variety of diseases and with 79 approved products by the United States Food and Drug Administration in December 2019. Therapeutic monoclonal antibodies are commonly produced as recombinant proteins in mammalian cell lines, due to their capacity of post-translational modifications, most notably glycosylation.
