Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with the fundamental principles affecting protein adsorption. The effects of surface chemistry and topography on protein adsorption characteristics have been identified and quantified. Particular attention has been made to understand how the conformation of surface-bound proteins was affected by the surface onto which they adsorbed. Quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), UV-Vis spectroscopy and fluorometry were used to assess protein-surface affinity and amounts of protein adsorbed at surface saturation levels. Infrared spectroscopy was used to quantify protein conformatio

Abstract:
Is it possible to find an easy, generic method for protein refolding? The preparation of functionally active protein molecules from the unfolded state can be a difficult task. Although there are many well-established techniques for protein refolding, such as dilution, dialysis, chromatography and others, in many instances these methods can be time consuming and inefficient. A rapid, inexpensive and simple method for protein folding is a much sought after technique. Proteins in the unfolded state (either inclusion bodies or unfolded by chemical or physical means) are generally solubilised in so

Abstract:
Le repliement et la stabilité des protéines dépendent des conditions physico-chimiques de leur environnement. En particulier, le pH, la température, l’agitation et les interactions avec d’autres macromolécules ou avec les interfaces (liquide–surfaces des matériaux ; air-liquide ; etc.) sont connues pour induire des phénomènes de dénaturation et d’agrégation des protéines.Le contrôle de la stabilité des protéines thérapeutiques représente un enjeu médical et économique pour l’industrie pharmaceutique. L’insuline, qui est la protéine thérapeutique la plus produite, est connue in vitro pour forme
