Birte Svensson obtained her M.Sc.(1970) and Ph.D. (1974) from the University of Copenhagen, Denmark, making the thesis projects on immobilisation and chemical modification of subtilisins at the Carlsberg Laboratory, supervised by Martin Ottesen and Hans H. Ussing. She was post-doctoral fellow first at Insitut Pasteur in Paris (1974) working with Borivoj Keil on structure/function relationships of chymotrypsin and collagenases and then at Department of Biochemistry, University of Copenhagen, working on intestinal brush border peptidases. Returning to the Carlsberg Laboratory in the late 70'ies she started to work on Normal 0 21 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 fungal beta-glucanase and then took up purification and sequencing of glucoamylase from Aspergillus niger and identified one of the first very longer highly O-glycosylated linkers as well as one of the first carboydrate binding modules, the starch binding domain
