Human proteinase 3 resistance to inhibition extends to alpha-2 macroglobulin
Polymorphonuclear neutrophils contain at least four serine endopeptidases, namely neutrophil elastase (NE), proteinase 3 (PR3), cathepsin G (CatG), and NSP4, which contribute to the regulation of infection and of inflammatory processes. In physiological co ...
2020The Split Luciferin Reaction
Studying biological processes on the level of live cells with the help of biocompatible reac-tions has tremendously advanced our understanding of basic biology. However, the great complexity of many human pathologies such as cancer, diabetes and neurodegen ...
EPFL2017Engineering the Extra Domain A of fibronectin as a vaccine adjuvant and study of its role in tissue regeneration
The extracellular matrix (ECM) protein fibronectin (FN) is a remarkably multifaceted molecule, including numerous fibronectin type III (FNIII) repeats carrying out different functions, which despite being extensively studied for over thirty years still pre ...
EPFL2016Biomechanical analysis of cerebral arteries
The intent of this thesis is to study the function of elastin in cerebral arteries, its contribution into the aging process and its implication into different cerebral diseases and in particular cerebral aneurysms. As of today, little is known on the genes ...
EPFL2008The Catalytic Site of Serine Proteinases as a Specific Binding Cavity for Xenon
Background: Under moderate pressure, xenon can bind to proteins and form weak but specific interactions. Such protein-xenon complexes can be used as isomorphous derivatives for phase determination in X-ray crystallography. Results: Investigation of the ser ...
