  4. 2. The diverse functions of the ADAR enzymes : Editing and editing-independent effects on gene expression

    Author : Victor Karlström; Neus Visa; Ayelet Lamm; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; RNA editing; ADAR; Alternative splicing; miRNA processing; neuronal differentiaton; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Abstract : The adenosine deaminase acting on RNA (ADAR) family of enzymes consists of three members (ADAR1-3). These enzymes are responsible for the deamination of adenosine into inosine in double-stranded RNA, one of the most common RNA modifications in mammals. READ MORE

  5. 3. Deregulation and editing of microRNAs in metastatic prostate cancer

    Author : Gjendine Voss; Avdelningen för translationell cancerforskning; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; prostate cancer; bone metastasis; microRNA; RNA editing; A-to-I editing; ADAR; miR-96; miR-379;

    Abstract : Prostate cancer bone metastasis is still not fully understood, and increased knowledge could aid in the development of better treatment options for patients in the future. This thesis focuses on microRNAs (miRNAs), which modulate gene expression in healthy and tumour cells. READ MORE

  6. 4. Growth hormone and PPARa in the regulation of lipoprotein metabolism

    Author : Daniel Lindén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : growth hormone; insulin; fatty acids; PPARa; apolipoprotein B; VLDL; mRNA editing;

    Abstract : In humans, apolipoprotein B (apoB)-100 is produced in the liver and apoB-48 is formed in the intestine. In the rat, however, the two forms of apoB are produced in the liver, leading to the formation of VLDL consisting of either apoB-48 or apoB-100. READ MORE

  7. 5. Selective ADAR editing and the coordination with splicing

    Author : Annika Källman; Marie Öhman; Mary O’Connell; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molekylärbiologi; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : Maturation of precursor messenger RNAs (pre-mRNA) in eukaryotes includes processes like capping, 3’ end formation and splicing. Some premRNAs undergo an additional process called RNA editing where a single nucleotide is modified to generate a new nucleotide identity. READ MORE
