Ph.D. Theses: Recent submissions

  • A theoretical study on catalytic steps of hydrogen production and purification 
    Sümer, Aslıhan. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2010., 2010.)
    The aim of this thesis is to obtain information on catalytic activity of transition metals used in different steps of hydrogen production and purification. Density functional theory calculations with periodic slabs have ...
  • Segmental orientation and conformational dynamics of polymer chains 
    Haliloğlu, Türkan. (Thesis (Ph.D)- Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 1992., 1992.)
    Various remarkable features of polymers, as compared with metallic and inorganic materials, arise from the fact that macromolecules can take up various conformations. The study of macromolecular conformations and dynamics ...
  • System biology of yeast signal transduction 
    Arğa, Kazım Yalçın. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2007., 2007.)
    Reconstruction of protein interaction networks that represent groups of proteins contributing to the same cellular function is a key step towards quantitative studies of signal transduction pathways. In the present study, ...
  • Mixed-resolution elastic network models for biological supramolecules 
    Levitas, Ayşe Özge Kürkçüoğlu. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2008., 2008.)
    Mixed coarse-graining approach has been recently introduced to the elastic network model to enable the modeling of a protein’s native conformation with regions of high- and low-resolution. In this model, each node of the ...
  • Stoichiometric models in metabolic systems biology of yeast 
    Çakır, Tunahan. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2006., 2006.)
    A system-level analysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolism was performed through integration of stoichiometric modeling and high-throughput ‘omics’ data. A bridge between metabolic networks and transcriptomics was built ...
  • Supercritical carbon dioxide immobilization of glucose oxidase on conducting polymers towards biosensor production 
    Talay, Defne Kayrak. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2007., 2007.)
    In this work, glucose oxidase (GOX) is immobilized on conducting polymer matrices (polypyrrole film, PPY; polyurethane/polpyrrole composite foam and film, PU/PPY) via Supercritical Fluid Immobilization (SFI) for further ...
  • Recognition and binding processes in HIV-1 protease 
    Özer, Asuman Nevra. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2008., 2008.)
    HIV-1 protease is a drug target against AIDS and understanding its molecu- lar recognition processes is important in development of drugs. Here, the combined computational methodologies used put three different perspectives ...
  • pH and temperature dependence of the rate of dissolution of AgIO3 
    Uyanık, Ömer Lütfi. (Thesis (Ph.D.) - Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 1984., 1984.)
    In this thesis a theory based ona dissolution model was checked experimentally. The theory which is developed by B.V. Enüstün expresses the initial rate of dissolution for a 1:1 type ionic solid in terms of the model ...
  • Computational and experimental investigation of catalytic hydrocarbon fuel processing for autothermal hydrogen production 
    Avcı, Ahmet Kerim. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2003., 2003.)
    Catalytic conversion of hydrocarbon fuels within the context of the operation of a fuel processor for supplying hydrogen to vehicular and stationary fuel cells is investigated using computer-based modeling/simulation studies ...
  • Integrated analysis of metabolome profiles and gene expression in respiratory deficient deletion mutants of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae 
    Pir, Pınar. (Thesis (Ph.D.)-Bogazici University. Institute for Graduate Studies in Science and Engineering, 2005., 2005.)
    A study on transcriptional and metabolic response of S. cerevisiae cells toenvironmental and genetic perturbations was made. Deletion mutants with BY4743backgound were used. Homozygous deletion mutants ho/ho (reference ...
