  1. 1. Studies of gene fusions and copy number alterations in salivary and adnexal neoplasms

    Author : Marta Persson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : cancer genetics; fusion oncogenes; chromosome translocation; MYB; NFIB; CRTC1; MAML2; salivary gland; breast; adenoid cystic carcinoma; mucoepidermoid carcinoma; hidradenoma;

    Abstract : Cancer is a genetic disease caused by the accumulation of genetic changes such as mutations and chromosomal rearrangements. An increasing number of genetic studies of both hematological and solid neoplasms have shown that recurrent chromosome translocations often result in fusion oncogenes. READ MORE

  2. 2. Transcriptomic and functional studies of fusion oncogene-driven salivary gland tumors

    Author : Maryam K. Afshari; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; fusion oncogene; MYB; NFIB; PLAG1; HMGA2; adenoid cystic carcinoma; pleomorphic adenoma; targeted therapy;

    Abstract : Fusion genes are potent oncogenic drivers resulting from exchange of regulatory/coding sequences between two genes. They were originally identified in leukemias but are now recognized as key oncogenic events also in many solid tumors, including salivary gland tumors (SGTs). READ MORE

  4. 4. Investigation of genes and proteins involved in xylan biosynthesis

    Author : Anders Winzell; Ines Ezcurra; Johan Edqvist; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Populus; xylan biosynthesis; hemicellulose; glycosyltransferase; GT43; IRX; glycoside hydrolase; GH10; Xyn10A; CAZy; transcription factor; MYB; wood formation; secondary cell wall; Arabidopsis; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : Wood formation or xylogenesis is a fundamental process for so diverse issues as industry, shelter and a sustainable environment. Wood is comprised of secondary xylem, rigid large cells with thick cell walls that are lignified. READ MORE

  5. 5. Functional studies of Mediator in Arabidopsis thaliana and Saccharomyces cerevisiae

    Author : Nils Elfving; Stefan Björklund; Jesper Svejstrup; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Transcriptional regulation; chromatin; stress; Pol II; mediator; DREB2A; ZFHD1; MYB-like; Msn2; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : Mediator has been shown to be essential for regulation of RNA Polymerase II mediated transcription. Mediator functions as an interface between the general transcriptional machinery and a multitude of DNA binding transcriptional regulators, although the molecular mechanism for the process is elusive.
