Abstract:
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a member of the γ-herpesvirus subfamily of Herpesviridae. EBV is a double stranded DNA virus infecting humans causing a variety of disease from asymptomatic infection to association with certain tumours including Burkitts lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and nasopharyngeal carcinoma. EBV encodes an immediate-early protein called Zta (BZLF1, EB1, ZEBRA), which is an important transcription factor and replication factor direct in disrupting latency. EBV encodes viral proteins that assemble as a replisome at the viral lytic origin recognition site (Ori-Lyt). Zta binds Ori-L

Abstract:
β-defensins are a class of mammalian defence peptides with therapeutic potential because of their ability to kill bacteria and attract host immune cells. In order to realise this potential, it is necessary to understand how the functions of these peptides are related to their structures. This thesis presents biophysical analysis of β- defensins and related peptides in conjunction with biological assays. These studies provide new insights into the structure-activity relationships of β-defensins. Ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) is used throughout this thesis to probe the tertiary structur

Congenital heart defects (CHD) are structural anomalies affecting the heart, are found in 1% of the population and arise during early stages of embryo development.

As the nets are in frequent contact with people, pyrethroids are the only class of insecticide recommended for use due to its low toxicity to mammals.

Abstract:
Secondary-active trans-membrane transporters couple the ‘downhill’ movement of ions with the ‘uphill’ movement of essential substrates, such as neurotransmitters or metabolites, across the cell membrane. Disruption of these vital processes is linked to some severe diseases in humans, for example Parkinson’s disease. The aim of this project is to investigate the structural basis of the transport mechanism of secondary-active transporters, using the bacterial sodium-hydantoin transporter Mhp1 as a model system, with a combination of X-ray crystallography and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS).

Abstract:
The field of proteomics studies the structure and function of proteins in a large scale and high throughput manner. My work in the field of proteomics focuses on identifying interactions between proteins and discovering novel interactions. The identification of these interactions provides new information on metabolic and disease pathways and the working proteome of a cell. Cells are lysed and purified using antibody based affinity purification followed by digestion and identification using an HPLC coupled to a mass spectrometer. In my studies, I looked at the interaction networks of several AD
