Comparing Efficiency of Lysis Buffer Solutions and Sample Preparation Methods for Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Human Cells and Plasma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The use of a proper sample processing methodology for maximum proteome coverage and high-quality quantitative data is an important choice to make before initiating a liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS)-based ... -
Functionalization of Nanoparticles with Tyrosine Hydroxylase : Biotechnological and Therapeutic Implications
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-09-30)Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) er et viktig enzym for nervesystemet, fordi det katalyserer det første steget i syntesen av dopamin, noradrenalin og adrenalin. Nivået på TH og dopamin synker hos Parkinsons pasienter pga. den ... -
Structure-based Druggability Predictions of RNA Binding Sites and Design of RNA Ligands
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-09-15)Den post-antibotiske æraen truer og for å møte denne krisen trengs det tilgang til nye klasser av antibiotika. Ribvoswitcher er cis-genregulerende foldete strukturer av ikke-kodende RNA, som handler gjennom konformasjonsendringer ... -
Understanding proteostasis dysregulation in phenylketonuria – a paradigm disease for inborn error of metabolism
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-09-06)Fenylketonuria (PKU) er en medfødt stoffskiftesykdom forårsaket av mutasjoner i genet for fenylalanin hydroksylase (PAH), og fører til ustabile og ofte feilfoldete enzymer med nedsatt evne til å metabolisere aminosyren ... -
Early Evolutionary Selection of NAD Biosynthesis Pathway in Bacteria
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Bacteria use two alternative pathways to synthesize nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) from nicotinamide (Nam). A short, two-step route proceeds through nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) formation, whereas the other ... -
Anti-PD-L1/TGF-βR fusion protein (SHR-1701) overcomes disrupted lymphocyte recovery-induced resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in lung cancer
(Journal article, 2022)Background Second-generation programmed cell death-protein 1/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors, such as bintrafusp alfa (M7824), SHR-1701, and YM101, have been developed to simultaneously block PD-1/PD-L1 ... -
Biochemical and biophysical characterisation of HMBS variants associated with acute intermittent porphyria

AXL targeting restores PD-1 blockade sensitivity of STK11/LKB1 mutant NSCLC through expansion of TCF1+ CD8 T cells
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Mutations in STK11/LKB1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are associated with poor patient responses to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), and introduction of a Stk11/Lkb1 (L) mutation into murine lung adenocarcinomas ... -
Structural and biophysical characterization of transcription factor HNF-1A as a tool to study MODY3 diabetes variants
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1A (HNF-1A) is a transcription factor expressed in several embryonic and adult tissues, modulating the expression of numerous target genes. Pathogenic variants in the HNF1A gene are known to cause ... -
Mechanical stress shapes the cancer cell response to neddylation inhibition
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background The inhibition of neddylation by the preclinical drug MLN4924 represents a new strategy to combat cancer. However, despite being effective against hematologic malignancies, its success in solid tumors, where ... -
Development and Validation of Arc Nanobodies: New Tools for Probing Arc Dynamics and Function
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated (Arc) protein plays key roles in long-term synaptic plasticity, memory, and cognitive flexibility. However, an integral understanding of Arc mechanisms is lacking. Arc is proposed ... -
Metabolic flux analysis of 3D spheroids reveals significant differences in glucose metabolism from matched 2D cultures of colorectal cancer and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cell lines
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Most in vitro cancer cell experiments have been performed using 2D models. However, 3D spheroid cultures are increasingly favored for being more representative of in vivo tumor conditions. To overcome the ... -
The Final Maturation State of β-actin Involves N-terminal Acetylation by NAA80, not N-terminal Arginylation by ATE1
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Actin is a hallmark protein of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells, affecting a range of cellular functions. Actin dynamics is regulated through a myriad of actin-binding proteins and post-translational modifications. The ... -
Human organotypic airway and lung organoid cells of bronchiolar and alveolar differentiation are permissive to infection by influenza and SARS-CoV-2 respiratory virus
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to the initiation of unprecedented research efforts to understand the pathogenesis mediated by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). ... -
The styryl benzoic acid derivative DC10 potentiates radiotherapy by targeting the xCT-glutathione axis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Metastatic tumors with moderate radiosensitivity account for most cancer-related deaths, highlighting the limitations of current radiotherapy regimens. The xCT-inhibitor sulfasalazine (SAS) sensitizes cancer cells to ... -
Inhibitory inputs to an inhibitory interneuron: Spontaneous postsynaptic currents and GABA_A receptors of A17 amacrine cells in the rat retina
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Amacrine cells constitute a large and heterogeneous group of inhibitory interneurons in the retina. The A17 amacrine plays an important role for visual signalling in the rod pathway microcircuit of the mammalian retina. ... -
Biochemical analysis of novel NAA10 variants suggests distinct pathogenic mechanisms involving impaired protein N‑terminal acetylation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)NAA10 is the catalytic subunit of the N-terminal acetyltransferase complex, NatA, which is responsible for N-terminal acetylation of nearly half the human proteome. Since 2011, at least 21 different NAA10 missense variants ... -
The mosaic of AII amacrine cell bodies in rat retina is indistinguishable from a random distribution
