  2. 1. The multi-faceted RNA molecule : Characterization and Function in the regulation of Gene Expression

    Author : Mats Ensterö; Marie Öhman; Jørgen Kjems; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular biology; Computational Biology; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : In this thesis I have studied the RNA molecule and its function and characteristics in the regulation of gene expression. I have focused on two events that are important for the regulation of the transcriptome: Translational regulation through micro RNAs; and RNA editing through adenosine deaminations. READ MORE

  4. 2. Protein-Protein Interactions in Human Aquaporin Regulation

    Author : Jennifer Virginia Roche; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Membrane proteins; Human Aquaporins; water channels; Protein-protein interaction; Regulation; AQP2; AQP0; LIP5; CaM;

    Abstract : Water is an essential compoment of every living orgamism and forms a major part of the human body. Regulated water transport is crucial for proper cell functioning and body homeostasis. READ MORE

  5. 3. Characterization of the inner nuclear membrane protein Samp1, during interphase and mitosis

    Author : Veronica J. Larsson; Einar Hallberg; Katharine S. Ullman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Samp1; LINC complex; nuclear lamina; MCLIP; nuclear envelope; spindle assembly; spindle stability; k-fiber; gamma tubulin; Aurora B; Haus6; Augmin; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Abstract : The nucleus, a hallmark in eukaryotic cells, contains the genome separating it from molecules in the cytoplasm. The nucleus is surrounded by a nuclear envelope consisting of two concentric membranes, the outer nuclear membrane and the inner nuclear membrane, the nuclear lamina and nuclear pore complexes.

  6. 4. Towards membrane engineering as a tool in cell factory design: A case study on acetic acid tolerance in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Author : Lina Lindahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; butanol; inhibitors; lipidomics; Key words: Lignocellulose; Zygosaccharomyces bailii; molecular dynamics simulations; membrane permeability; carbon-14 uptake; ethanol; robustness;

    Abstract : The sustainable production of fuels, chemicals, and materials using renewable resources is a necessity if we are to reduce our ecological footprint and the rate of climate change. Lignocellulosic biomass, the major constituent of plant cell walls, is a renewable raw material with great potential due to its high abundance. READ MORE

  7. 5. Reinforcement in Biology : Stochastic models of group formation and network construction

    Author : Qi Ma; David Sumpter; Edward Codling; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; reinforcement in biology; merge and split model; preferential attachment; reinforced random walk; network construction; shortest path problem; transport networks; ant algorithm; slime mould; physarum polycephalum; speed-accuracy tradeoff.; Mathematics with specialization in Applied Mathematics; Matematik med inriktning mot tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : Empirical studies show that similar patterns emerge from a large number of different biological systems. For example, the group size distributions of several fish species and house sparrows all follow power law distributions with an exponential truncation. READ MORE
