thanks i was not able to figure it out some days before but now i think i can do it myself: a nice function that searches a string in a list.
def parsesb(lis, string):
print lis
for num, nam in enumerate (lis):
print num, nam
if type(nam) == list: parsesb(lis[num],string)
if type(nam) == str: # do something
if nam == string: print 'hit!!!'
