  2. 1. Modelling Approaches to Molecular Systems Biology

    Author : David Fange; Måns Ehrenberg; Johan Elf; Terence Hwa; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stochastic reaction-diffuion kinetics; antibiotic drugs; efflux pumps; amino acid biosynthesis; Min-system; rRNA operon; transcription; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biotechnology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär bioteknik;

    Abstract : Implementation and analysis of mathematical models can serve as a powerful tool in understanding how intracellular processes in bacteria affect the bacterial phenotype. In this thesis I have implemented and analysed models of a number of different parts of the bacterium E. coli in order to understand these types of connections. READ MORE

  4. 2. Genetic organization of encapsulated and non-encapsulated Haemophilus influenzae strains. Analysis of the glpTQ and 23S rRNA operons

    Author : Xin-Ming Song; Malmö Klinisk mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microbiology; intervening sequence; 23S rRNA; transcription; DNA sequence; glpT; Haemophilus influenzae; glpQ; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Abstract : Encapsulated Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) and non-encapsulated H. influenzae (NTHi) are important pathogens causing invasive and mucosal infections in children. A 42 kDa surface-exposed lipoprotein, protein D, has been found to be a potential virulence factor of NTHi. READ MORE

  5. 3. Accessory factors for ribosomal assembly

    Author : Mattias Lövgren; Mikael Wikström; Dan Andersson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular biology; RimM; RbfA; RlmB; ribosomal assembly; rRNA processing; Molekylärbiologi; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : The assembly of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and ribosomal proteins (r-proteins) into ribosomal subunits (30S and 50S) is a complex process. Transcription of rRNA requires antitermination proteins and the primary transcripts are processed by ribonucleases. READ MORE

  6. 4. Study of the Link between Translation Termination and Ribosome Biogenesis

    Author : Magdalena Kaczanowska; Monica Rydén Aulin; Catherine L. Squires; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Microbiology; Mikrobiologi;

    Abstract : Release factor 1 (RF1) is a ribosome-binding protein required for termination of translation in Escherichia coli. To study the effect of slow termination on protein synthesis, two isolated suppressors to a temperature sensitive (Ts) mutant allele of RF1 were studied. READ MORE

  7. 5. Culture-independent methods and high-throughput sequencing applied to evolutionary microbial genomics

    Author : Anders E. Lind; Thijs JG Ettema; Purificación López-García; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Single cell genomics; metagenomics; amplicon; archaea; haloarchaea; endosymbiosis; ciliate; hydrogenosome; tree reconciliation;

    Abstract : Culture-independent methods allow us to better understand the diversity of microorganisms on earth. By omitting the culturing step, we can gain access to species previously out of our reach.To better capture and understand the diversity of microorganisms, we have developed an alternative to 16S amplicon sequencing.
