Abstract:
At the time of writing this thesis, the complete genomes of more than 180 organisms have been sequenced and more than 80000 biological macromolecular structures are available in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). While the number of sequenced genomes and solved three-dimensional structures are rapidly increasing, the functional annotation of protein sequences and structures is a much slower process, mostly because the experimental de-termination of protein function is expensive and time-consuming. A major class of in silico methods used for protein function prediction aim to transfer annotations bet

Die dynamische Regulation von Protein-Protein Interaktionen (PPIs) ist wichtig für den Ablauf von biologischen Prozessen. Die circadiane Uhr, die einen ~24 Stunden Rhythmus generiert und eine Vielzahl von physiologischen Parametern steuert kann auch die Dynamik von PPIs regulieren. Um neue Erkenntnisse über regulatorische Mechanismen innerhalb des molekularen Oszillators zu gewinnen, habe ich zunächst alle möglichen PPIs zwischen 46 circadianen Komponenten mittels eines systematischen yeast-two-hybid (Y2H) Screens bestimmt.

Abstract:
Dynamic combinatorial chemistry (DCC) is a novel approach to medicinal chemistry which integrates the synthesis and screening of small molecule libraries into a single step. The concept uses reversible chemical reactions to present a dynamic library of candidate structures to a template which selects and removes the best binder from equilibrium. Using this evolutionary process with a biopolymer template, such as a protein, leads to the protein directing the synthesis of its own best ligand. Biological DCC applications are extremely challenging since the thermodynamic criterion of reversibility

Abstract:
Research into the relationship between the structure and function of proteins has been ongoing now for several decades. More recently, there has been an explosion in the investigation of the dynamic properties of proteins, and how their dynamic propensity relates to their function. This new direction in protein research requires new techniques to analyse protein dynamics, since most traditional techniques are biased towards a fixed tertiary structure. Mass spectrometry (MS) is emerging as a powerful tool to probe protein dynamics since it can provide information on interconverting conformation

Inference for dynamic systems and conformational sampling for protein folding are two problems motivated by applied data, which pose computational challenges from a statistical perspective. Dynamic systems are often described by a set of coupled differential equations, and methods of parametric estimation for these models from noisy data can require repeatedly solving the equations numerically. Many of these models also lead to rough likelihood surfaces, which makes sampling difficult. We introduce a method for Bayesian inference on these models, using a multiple chain framework that exploi

Protein palmitoylation represents the only reversible lipid modification in the cell.

In mammalian cells, twenty-three PATs have been identified; however, the mechanisms that regulate their enzymatic activity are largely unexplored.

Small heat shock proteins (sHsps) are oligomeric proteins expressed by cells in response to high temperatures. It is believed that sHsps are produced as a defensive mechanism against temperature stress and act as molecular chaperones by binding and protecting heat-labile proteins from irreversible aggregation. Binding results in the formation of sHsp/substrate complexes from which substrate can later be refolded by ATP-dependent chaperones. Despite past investigations, many aspects of this model remain poorly defined. Results presented here provide new insight into the mechanism of sHsp action

The correct patterning of embryos requires the exchange of information between cells. This is in part achieved by the proper distribution of signaling molecules, many of which exert their function by establishing gradients of concentration. Because of this property they were named &amp;quot;morphogens&amp;quot;, or &amp;quot;form giving&amp;quot; substances. Among these, proteins belonging to the Hedgehog (Hh) family have received much attention, owing to their unusual double lipid modification and their involvement in human disease, causing congenital birth defects and cancer.

Abstract:
<p> Photosystem II (PSII) is recognized as the main site for high light induced damage. One of the core subunits of PSII, D1 protein encoded by the <i> psbA</i> gene, is identified as a high turnover protein that undergoes degradation and replacement as a part of the repair process in PSII. Studies on D1 repair have shown the synchronous nature of D1 degradation and synthesis. FtsH a AAA protease, is known to cause D1 degradation. Therefore, it is widely speculated that damaged D1 is replaced by newly synthesized D1. Although, there is no direct evidence suggesting the removal of damaged subun

Thesis for the Degree of Master of Science in Biotechnology Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia<br>The present work focuses the optimization of the production of human Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (hLIF) by human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) - EBNA1 cell line cultured as suspension aggregates in spinner flask. The effects of initial cell density and feeding-regime in cellular growth and productivity were evaluated. A first phase occurs until the end of exponential growth in medium containing serum, being followed by puromycin selection of cells containing hLIF p
