Abstract:
In the field of molecular discovery, virtually screening large libraries of compounds proved to be often more cost-efficient than the traditional experimental approaches. In fact, it has now become common practice thanks to the virtual screening tools available to chemists in the pharmaceutical industry, specifically docking. Most docking programs do not account for the dynamics associated with protein-ligand binding whether it is protein flexibility or the inclusion of displaceable water molecules. FITTED1.0 was developed to include these specific two features and has been validated on a test

Abstract:
A major bottleneck in drug discovery is the production of soluble human recombinant protein for functional, biochemical and structural analyses. The level of recombinant protein expression is controlled by a complex relationship between both biological and engineering variables. Due to the inter-play between these variables and standard experimental methods, the identification of the key variables which lead to improved protein expression can sometimes be missed.

Malaria is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, causing more than 400,000 deaths per year. Malaria is caused by parasites of the Plasmodium genus with most deaths due to P. falciparum infection. The control of malaria is complicated by the lack of a widely effective vaccine, the spread of mosquito resistance to insecticides and Plasmodium parasite resistance to available drugs, including the gold standard artemisinin-combination therapies. Thus, there is an urgent requirement for the development of new antimalarials, in particular those with different modes of action to existing drugs t

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a debilitating disease caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, which codes for the CFTR anion channel.

This thesis describes the optimisation and use of two fluorescence assays, capable of measuring the two defects caused by the ΔF508 mutation.

Abstract:
In the last decade, the reverse vaccinology approach shifted the paradigm of vaccine discovery from conventional culture-based methods to high-throughput genome-based approaches for the development of recombinant protein-based vaccines against pathogenic bacteria. Besides reaching its main goal of identifying new vaccine candidates, this new procedure produced also a huge amount of molecular knowledge related to them. In the present work, we explored this knowledge in a species-independent way and we performed a systematic in silico molecular analysis of more than 100 protective antigens, loo

Abstract:
Tool Integration is a vital part in the modern IT industry. With the ever increasing complexity in reality, more tools in different domains are needed in research and development process. However, currently no vendor has a complete solution for the whole process, and no mature solution to integrate different tools together, thus tools are still used separately in the industry. Due to this separation, the same information is created more than once for different tools, which is both time wasting and error prone.This thesis is part of the research to deliver a model-based tool integration framewo

However, the literature suggests one can arrive at differing conclusions about the efficacy of the American educational system depending on what we measure, how we measure it, when we decide to measure, and why we measure. As will be shown, many testing methods currently in vogue in the United States generate data that can lead policy makers

Abstract:
The thesis work intends to provide an architecture for discovery and monitoring of nodes in a network with improved performance and security. The proposed work addresses limitations identified within the scope of this thesis. The limitations are identified by analyzing some of the better existing monitoring tools in the market with the use of different protocols. The proposed work use different protocols depending on the situation of the problem that exists in a network. Analyze the existing network monitoring tools, by performing metrics and overcoming the limitations. We proposed a new archi

Abstract:
This thesis is divided into two distinct sections which can be combined under the broad umbrella of structural bioinformatics studies related to drug discovery. The first section involves the establishment of an online South African natural products database. Natural products (NPs) are chemical entities synthesised in nature and are unrivalled in their structural complexity, chemical diversity, and biological specificity, which has long made them crucial to the drug discovery process. South Africa is rich in both plant and marine biodiversity and a great deal of research has gone into isolatin

Abstract:
It is 2am. A professor wakes up with a new direction for her research; she must immediately learn about bioethics. In a dorm a student is finally ready to begin a paper on Cuba. Where do they turn? The library web site presents them with a bewildering array of resources and no librarian on hand to serve as intermediary. How can librarians facilitate research in their absence? What interfaces can be designed to educate users in their search? What metadata is needed to enable accurate retrieval? What is the librarian’s role in the increasingly indirectly-mediated information-seeking env
