Kort intervju i Vetenskapsradion om fin streptokock-studie från Fredric Carlssons forskargrupp!

Nya genetiska svar på varför vissa dör av streptokocker - Vetenskapsradion Nyheter I en ny studie har forskare från bland annat Lunds universitet och Karolinska Institutet hittat förklaringar i vår arvsmassa på varför streptockocker hos ...

Very happy that our edited book Bacterial Pathogenesis - Methods and Protocols in The Springer Nature book series Methods in Molecular Biology is now available online! A heartfelt thanks to all the authors and editors!

Bacterial Pathogenesis This book presents methodological approaches designed to improve our understanding of bacterial infections from a wide range of bacterial species.

Clever protocol using our favourite enzymes! Mattias' valuation and original paper:

Do you want to produce defined glycoforms (currently G0, G1, G2 or G2S2) of your favorite IgG antibodies? Now you can with this neat system that our friends at Genovis has developed partly based on enzymes discovered in our group!

Genovis » TransGLYCIT TransGLYCIT is a platform that enables specific IgG glycan remodeling and prepares antibodies with defined and homogenous glycoforms using fast and robust enzymatic workflows. With the optional FucosEXO 16™ enzyme, afucosylated antibodies can be obtained that enable direct comparison of antibodi...
