Sanctioning of legal persons
Kratochvílová, Kateřina ; Bohuslav, Lukáš (advisor) ; Vokoun, Rudolf (referee)
Sanctioning of legal persons Abstract This thesis focuses on criminal responsibility of legal persons, with an emphasis on sanctioning. The thesis examines the Act No. 418/2011 Coll., On Criminal Liability of Legal Persons and the Proceedings against them (hereinafter as "the Act"). Further it evaluates how is the Act applied by the courts and what are the problems resulting from the application of the Act, with focus on sanctioning. The thesis further proposes ideas for improvements, including changes in legislation de lege ferenda. The diploma thesis consists of three parts. In the first part the author addresses the basic concepts of criminal responsibility of legal persons, its roots in foreign and international law, and the development of the concept in the Czech Republic. This part further describes the basic institutes of corporate criminal liability, including imputability of criminal act to the legal person, followed by explanation of the concept of exculpation and related case law. Part Two focuses on sanctioning of legal persons from the theoretical perspective. It addresses the basic institutes of sanctioning of legal persons, the purpose and the principles of sanctioning, followed by the analysis of each sanction included in the Czech Act on Criminal Liability of Legal Persons and the...

Acquisition of property from an unauthorised person
Kratochvílová, Kateřina ; Thöndel, Alexandr (advisor) ; Frinta, Ondřej (referee)
130 English Abstract This diploma thesis deals with the issue of acquisition of property from an unauthorised person. Such a possibility deprives the owner of legal protection of his/her ownership rights in favour of protection of good faith of the acquirer, who thus can acquire ownership even though the transferor is a neither an owner nor authorised for any other reason to dispose with the property. The new Civil Code which entered into force on 1 January 2014 introduces new rules governing such situations, while differing significantly from the previous legislation. Legislation which was in effect until 1 January 2014 was inadequate, in particular due to dichotomy between Civil Code and Commercial Code. Another significant deficiency represented the lack of possibility of acquisition of immovable property registered in the cadastral register from an unauthorised person. Material publicity applied only to a limited extent and did not provide sufficient protection to persons who trusted that the rights recorded in the cadastral register also objectively existed. The diploma thesis is divided into six chapters and analyses the institute of acquisition of property from an unauthorised person in its broader context. The first chapter describes ownership right and manners of its acquisition as well as the...

Coat protein-RNA interaction in vivo and the biotechnological use of VLPs
Kratochvílová, Kateřina ; Moravec, Tomáš (advisor) ; Hála, Michal (referee)
The Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is a simple and frequently used model virus which has been studied already more over than 130 years. Due to the intensive study of this virus the details of its infectious cycle, genomic information and also the structure of the created viral particle as well as the mechanism of its creation are known today. The process of encapsidation (viral particle formation) is sufficiently described in the in vitro conditions. In the in vitro conditions the origin of assembly (OAS) was also described. The OAS was identified in the coding sequence of the gene for the movement protein (MP). The importance of replication centers (replication factories) has also been supposed. The aim of the diploma thesis was to study the specificity of the interaction of RNA and coat protein in the process of the particle assembly taking place directly inside the plants. The experiments were performed to verify the necessity of presence of OAS sequence in process of initiation of viral encapsidation. The effect of the cell compartmentation on this process has also been studied. Based on several viral systems (the Tobacco mosaic virus, the Potato virus X, the Bean yellow dwarf virus and Cowpea mosaic virus) gene constructs were created. These constructs enables to study this idea at the molecular...

The use virus derived vectors for the expression of proteins in plants
Kratochvílová, Kateřina ; Moravec, Tomáš (advisor) ; Holá, Dana (referee)
The tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is one of the most studied virus. Its properties (simplicity, self assembly of viral capsid, the ability to proliferate in a large variety of hosts) offers a lot of applications in various scientific or biological fields. Gene vectors based on the tobacco mosaic virus represent a very good way for expressing proteins in plants. Because the tobacco mosaic virus is well researched and a large number of his properties have already been discovered, it is used for nanotechnologic sectors in this period. Not only for the formation of nanoparticles, but also for example for a potential production of vaccines in plants. In this paper I summarize the known information about the process of self assembly of tobacco mosaic virus and the possibility of using this virus in the emerging fields of biology. Key words Tobacco mosaic virus, self assembly, viral vector, nanotechnology
