Abstract:

Background The foundation for life on our planet are all the resources we can draw upon: sunlight, clean water, fresh air and many more. But one existential resource a lot of people are not aware of, is the rich variety of life forms on earth. Biodiversity surrounds us every day: It is in the clothes we wear, the food we eat and the medicine we take. It is also an important driver for tourism, economy and technology: Various technological innovations are directly inspired by nature.But biodiversity is degrading rapidly caused by the rising land consumption in many countries.

Abstract:

This thesis has endeavoured to enhance the knowledge and effectiveness of integrated conservation and development projects (ICDPs) as a model for the management of conservation areas and the buffer zones to national parks and reserves in Nepal. ICDPs evolved as it was recognised that the Western model of protected natural area management imposed costs on poor rural communities in developing countries and often failed to achieve nature conservation objectives. The ICDP concept was questioned when, after many years of mostly development effort in several developing countries, ICDPs did not provi

Abstract:

In this thesis we propose some new approaches to the study of complex networks, and apply them to multiple domains, focusing in particular on protein-protein interaction networks. We begin by examining the roles of individual proteins; specifically, the influential idea of 'date' and 'party' hubs. It was proposed that party hubs are local coordinators whereas date hubs are global connectors. We show that the observations underlying this proposal appear to have been largely illusory, and that topological properties of hubs do not in general correlate with interactor co-expression, thus undermin

Natural areas in proximity to urban environments are constantly under pressure from development. Conservation is not high on the list of priorities, mostly because the general public do not experience the benefits of nature first hand. In Pretoria, South Africa, this is not due to a lack of open space, but rather due to the fact that conservation areas are under-utilised. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) recommends that some areas be made more accessible to the benefit of greater conservation efforts.

Abstract:

The adenovirus major late transcription unit (MLTU) encodes for most of the mRNAs that are translated into the structural proteins of the virus capsid. Transcription from the MLTU is directed by the major late promoter (MLP), which is highly activated during the late phase of infection. This thesis discusses how the adenovirus-encoded L4-22K protein regulates the MLP at both the level of transcription and pre-mRNA splicing. The study shed new light on the complex regulation of the early to late shift of adenoviral gene expression. Here we show that the L4-22K protein has opposing effects on ML

Given the current limited arsenal of antimalarial drugs has been inspired by natural product scaffolds, these have the potential to be the source of new and structurally different antimalarial drugs, acting through novel mechanisms of action, that are ur

Eukaryotic organisms contain their entire genome in the nucleus of their cells. In order to fit within the nucleus, genomic DNA wraps into nucleosomes, the basic, repeating unit of chromatin. Nucleosomes wrap around each other to form higher order chromatin structures. Here we study many factors that affect, or are effected by, chromatin structure including: (1) how low-dose inorganic arsenic (iAs) changes chromatin structures and their relation to global transcription and splicing patterns, and (2) how chromatin architectural proteins (CAPs) bind to and change nucleosome dynamics and DNA targ

This project surveys biochemical practice and sets the record straight regarding which parts of protein classification are pluralist. Assuming an approach that attempts to draw metaphysical conclusions by analyzing how multifaceted practices of science work, I tie the results of my survey of protein classification practices to the debate over natural kinds. I address which classificatory practice is likely to pick out a natural kind. I defend the thesis that dynamics is a fundamental description of proteins as kinds. This view is widely held in biochemistry but is absent from philosophical lit

Amyloid-beta protein (Aß) is strongly linked to the aetiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Even though Aß has a central role in AD, this protein is normally produced in healthy humans. It is the aberrant processing of Aß that determines its accumulation and aggregation into large oligomer species that evolve into the fibrillar structures deposited in amyloid plaques in the brain of AD patients. The neurotoxicity observed in AD has been attributed to the oligomeric intermediates, although their stoichiometry and structure still remain unknown. This is the reason why no AD therapeutic approaches

Abstract:

Biological research is necessary; not only to further our understanding of the processes of life, but also to combat disease, hunger and environmental damage. Bioinformatics is the science of handling biological information. It entails integrating, structuring and analysing the ever-increasing amounts of available biological data. In practise it means using computers to analyse huge amounts of very complicated data taken from a field that is only partially understood, to see the hidden trends and connections, and to draw useful conclusions. My thesis work has mainly concerned the study of prot

Abstract:

The diversity of biosynthetic pathways in prokaryotes and eukaryotes has led to numerous bioactive natural products (NPs) which occupy a vast chemical space. Despite the current challenges in NP research, these molecules are still relevant today as they are a major source of human medicine as well as being useful biological tools. The elucidation of their biosynthetic pathways has also provided information about the biochemical and biophysical properties of fascinating enzyme families such as the α- oxoamine synthases (AOSs). The AOSs are an expanding group of pyridoxal 5’- phosphate (PLP)-dep

Abstract:

Silk proteins have provided a source of unique and versatile building blocks in the fabrication of biomedical devices for addressing a range of applications. Critical to advancing this field is the ability to establish an understanding of these proteins in their native and engineered states as well as in developing scalable processing strategies, which can fully exploit or enhance the stability, structure, and functionality of the two constituent proteins, silk fibroin and sericin. The research outlined in this dissertation focuses on the evolution in architecture and capability of silks, to e

Abstract:

Il est désormais admis que le caractère invasif d'une tumeur est lié, non seulement, au génotype des cellules cancéreuses, mais aussi à leurs interactions avec le microenvironnement tumoral (MT). Au sein du MT, une déstabilisation de la matrice stromale favorise la progression tumorale et la dissémination métastatique. Le remaniement de la matrice extracellulaire est souvent piloté par des enzymes protéolytiques. En revanche, les effets de l'inhibition de la formation de cette matrice sont peu étudiés. C’est dans cette optique que nous nous sommes intéressés à la protéine C (PC) et son récepte

This thesis concerns synthesis and characterization of carbon-based materials and theinvestigation of the possible use, of a selection of these materials, in biomedicalapplications. Protein adsorption and blood plasma tests were used for this purposeutilizing a surface sensitive technique called spectroscopic ellipsometry. The materials were synthesized by physical vapor deposition and characterizedregarding microstructure, mechanical properties and optical properties. The ternaries BC-N and Si-C-N as well as carbon and carbon nitrides (CNx) of different microstructureshave been examined. In t

Abstract:

The genome constitution and phylogeny of hexaploid timothy (Phleum pratense L., 2n = 42) have been studied with C-banding and genome-specific DNA techniques. The cultivated species and two diploid wild relatives P. alpinum (2n = 14) and P. bertolonii (2n = 14) were karyotyped. In P. pratense, two sets of seven chromosomes could not be distinguished from each other either in gross morphology or in C-banding patterns and the third set was found to be differentiated from them. Two genomes, A and B, were established in this species presumably with the genome formula of AAAABB. The banded karyotype
