Involvement of the Microtubule-Regulated RhoGEF GEF-H1 in the G12 family signaling pathways

Garrido Antequera, Georgina (Date of defense: 16-09-2014)
Heterotrimeric G proteins are masters regulators of cell homeostasis. They coordinate the signaling between G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and their intracellular effectors. Heterotrimeric G proteins are composed of ...
Reterritorialising the Caribbean: Marching alongside Earl Lovelace

Grau Perejoan, Maria (Date of defense: 15-05-2015)
This study revolves around the figure of Caribbean writer Earl Lovelace. The thesis demonstrates that the emphasis on the deterritorialisation of the Caribbean region and the focus on transnationalism has meant that what ...
Backbone N-modified peptides: beyond N-methylation

Fernández-Llamazares Onrubia, Ana Iris (Date of defense: 09-12-2013)
Backbone N-methylation is becoming an increasingly important tool in peptide drug design, and has been widely used to optimize the activity and selectivity of peptide ligands as a result of conformational modulation. ...
Deterritorialising patriarchal binary oppositions: Deleuze & Guattari, Virginia Woolf, Masculinities and Film Adaptations

Ortega, Dolors (Date of defense: 30-01-2013)
This thesis aims to problematise the hegemonic set of relations that has been aligned to gender and sex within the framework of binary thought when reading Woolf’s narrative of gender. Woolf’s elusive and intense style, ...
Elucidating catalytic mechanisms of glycoside hydrolases and transferases by means of ab initio molecular dynamics simulations

Iglesias Fernández, Javier (Date of defense: 19-09-2014)
Carbohydrates play a central role in transport and storage of energy and as molecular building blocks. Additionally, glycoconjugates, specifically glycoproteins and glycolipids, are important components of cell surfaces ...
Synthesis, Biological Evaluation and Insights into the Mode of Action of Quinoxaline Containing Peptides

Zamudio Vázquez, Rubí (Date of defense: 14-02-2014)
Triostins are members of the quinoxaline antibiotic family, together with the "prototypical bisintercalator" echinomycin. These molecules display interesting antitumour activities as they inhibit transcription through ...
Physical Activity Adherence and Prescription in the Catalan population

Pardo Fernández, Alba (Date of defense: 24-01-2014)
The behaviour of individuals, communities and populations is one of the major determinants of their health outcomes. This thesis presents the findings from three research projects related to the need of health care systems ...
Protein dynamics studied by coarse-grained and atomistic theoretical approaches

Orellana, Laura (Date of defense: 30-05-2014)
Protein structure, dynamics and function, are inseparable in order to understand the mechanisms of Life at the molecular level. From the structure comes dynamics, and from dynamics many, if not all, protein functions. ...
Strategies to improve the oxidative stability of bakery products fortified with heme iron

Alemán, Mercedes (Date of defense: 03-10-2014)
Iron deficiency is the most prevalent nutritional issue worldwide. The fortification of food products could help covering the iron requirements, mainly in certain population groups where prevalence of iron deficiency anaemia ...
Argument Structure and the Syntax-Morphology Interface. A Case Study in Latin and other Languages

Acedo-Matellán, Víctor (Date of defense: 01-12-2010)
In this dissertation I put forth a syntactic theory of argument structure and the syntaxmorphology interface and I apply it mainly to Early and Classical Latin, although comparison with other languages and discussion of ...
