  2. 11. Chromatin Dynamics in the Fission Yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe

    Author : Carolina Kristell; Pernilla Bjerling; Per Sunnerhagen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chromatin; Gene induction; Silencing; Subnuclear localization; Stress; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Molekylär genetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Abstract : In the eukaryotic cell nucleus, spatial organization and dynamics of the genome is important in the regulation of gene expression. This thesis describes the use of the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, to study chromatin regulation and dynamics. We used nitrogen starvation to induce transcription of genes in fission yeast cells. READ MORE

  4. 12. Chromatin regulators and transcriptional control of Drosophila development

    Author : Qi Dai; Mattias Mannervik; Albert J. Courey; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chromatin; Co-factors; Transcription; Development; Drosophila; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental Biology; miljömedicinsk utvecklingsbiologi;

    Abstract : The development of a multicellular organism is programmed by complex patterns of gene expression. In eukaryotic cells, genes are packaged by histone proteins into chromatin. Chromatin regulators often function as transcription co-factors. READ MORE

  5. 13. Epigenetic Regulation of Higher Order Chromatin Conformations and Gene Transcription

    Author : Anita Göndör; Reinald Fundele; Thomas Graf; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Genomic imprinting; Chromatin; Epigenetics; Cancer; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi;

    Abstract : Epigenetic states constitute heritable features of the chromatin to regulate when, where and how genes are expressed in the developing conceptus. A special case of epigenetic regulation, genomic imprinting, is defined as parent of origin-dependent monoallelic expression. READ MORE

  6. 14. Epigenetic Regulation of Genomic Imprinting and Higher Order Chromatin Conformation

    Author : Gholamreza Tavoosidana; Rolf Ohlsson; Job Dekker; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Epigenetic; Imprinting; Chromatin; CTCF; H19 ICR; 4C; Utvecklingsbiologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : The genetic information encoded by the DNA sequence, can be expressed in different ways. Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon that results in monoallelic expression of imprinted genes in a parent of origin-dependent manner. Imprinted genes are frequently found in clusters and can share common regulatory elements. READ MORE
