Multifunctional Building in Dobříš
Čapek, Pavel ; Vlček, Karel (referee) ; Vlček, Milan (advisor)
The master´s thesis is focused on the design and preparation of project documentation of the polyfunctional house in Dobříš city. Polyfunctional house is a rectangular shape with dimensions of 16,12 x 26,12 m. The building has one underground and three floors, the last floor is the attic. Horizontal and vertical structural system is BS Klatovy, the roof is gabled with a skylights.

Mutation Screening in Familial Cardiovascular Diseases
Čapek, Pavel ; Brdička, Radim (advisor) ; Gregor, Pavel (referee) ; Baxová, Alice (referee)
Introduction: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a congenital cardiac disease with autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance and incomplete penetrance. With the knowledge of the responsible genes, the ability to detect the underlying genetic change and with the study of functional analysis of defected protein, we might be able to determine whether specific genotypes lead to different phenotypes. Aims of Study: To comprehensively analyze the mechanism of genesis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in Czech patients afflicted with this disorder from molecular genetic point of view (MYH7, TNNT2 gene) to functional analysis of the 3D molecular model of defected β-myosin heavy chain protein in silico. Beside these aims of the study, the reduction of production of inflammatory aggregates in the cardiovascular system was studied in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The reason of this study was to look into possibilities of therapeutical effect on selected cardiovascular risks in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy simultaneously suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus. Both of these groups of patients have substantially increased risk of cardiovascular diseases due to development of premature atherosclerosis. Material and Methods: A total of 170 probands were enrolled in this study of MYH7 gene. DNA...

Synthesis of Purine - Amino Acid Conjugates
Čapek, Petr ; Hocek, Michal (advisor) ; Kotora, Martin (referee) ; Dvořák, Dalimil (referee) ; Mazal, Ctibor (referee)
4. Conclusions A simple and efficient approach to the synthesis of (purin-6-yl)alanines based on Negishi cross-coupling reactions of 6-iodopurines and iodozinc- alanines applicable to the synthesis of both racemic and optically pure compounds was developed. Though analogous reactions were used before for the synthesis of some simple aryl- or hetarylaranines, this was the first successful use in the functionalization ofprotected nucleobases and nucleosides. A practical method for synthesis of enantiomerically pure (purin-6_ yl)phenylalanines by palladium catalyzeď, copper mediated Stille cross-coupling reactions ofprotected 4-(trimethylstanyl)phenylalanines and 6-iodopurines was developed. This method was used in the synthesis of series of (purin_6_ yl)phenylalanines (bases and nucleosides) varying in substitution in position 9 of purine scaffold and in absolute configuration on o-carbon ofphenylalanine. The shaughnessy method for the Suzuki cross-coupling reactions in aqueous media was further optimized and applied to the single-step synthesis of novel optically pure (adenin-8-yl)phenylalanines and (purine_6_yl)phenyl_ alanines. wide tolerance of this methodology towards variety of functionalities and its applicability to 1abile systems was demonstrated particularly by the very first examples of couplings...

Polymorphism of STR loci on the X chromosome and its usage in forensic genetics.
Kotrčová, Eva ; Čapek, Pavel (advisor) ; Zachová, Markéta (referee)
Personal or kinship identification by STR (short tandem repeat) loci is currently a routinely used method, not only in forensic practise. Autosomal STRs are usually analyzed, Y chromosome also being popular because of his great importance (especially in genealogy) due to his recombination incapability. The X chromosome has been used least frequently in these respect, even though in specific cases, it might be more descriptive than autosomal loci. The purpose of this work is to provide a basic overview of the STR sequences and methods that are commonly used to analyze microsatellites, with emphasis on their specific behavior (if located on the X chromosome) and the subsequent possibilities of using these specifities especially in forensic genetics.

Measurement of \kur{in situ}Phasporus Availability in Acidified Soils using Iron-Infused Resin soils.
ČAPEK, Petr
A hybrid anion resin was tested for in situ phosphorus (P) availability measurement in soils of two stands recovering from acidification and having different P-sorption characteristics. The phosphate (P-PO4) sorption capacity of the resin (before saturation) was 48 mol g-1. Sorption and elution were tested under P-PO4 concentrations common in acidic soils (0 0.42 mmol l-1) either with or without the presence of sulfate (0.2 mmol l-1). The efficiency of P-PO4 sorption was independent of the sulfate and was 100 +/- 0.2% (n = 56, +/- SD). The P-PO4 recovery stabilized after six elution steps (each: 50 ml of 0.5 M sodium hydroxide, resin/solution 5:1). The efficiency of P-PO4 recovery was 80 +/- 7% and was used to evaluate field measurements. We determined the amount of P-PO4 in the field using resin bags in three consecutive years. The results indicate that bioavailable P is negatively related to the soil ability to retain P.

Role fosforu v biologické aktivitě kryogenních půd
ČAPEK, Petr
The combined effect of temperature, moisture and phosphorus availability on soil organic matter mineralization in permafrost affected soils of northern circumpolar region was investigated. This study was a part of research activities of the European project CryoCARB and it was primarily focused on the cryoturbated organic horizons of permafrost affected soils. During this study, the temperature sensitivity of the organic matter mineralization and its relation to the soil moisture and phosphorus availability was investigated using series of incubation experiments and field measurements.
