1. Positional Cloning of Disease Causing Genes : A Genetic Study of Obesity, Ichthyosis Prematurity Syndrome and Meniere's Disease
Abstract : Positional cloning is a method to identify genes from their position in the genome without prior knowledge about function. We used this approach to investigate the basis for three distinct genetic disorders; Obesity, Ichthyosis Prematurity Syndrome and Meniere's disease. READ MORE

2. CRISPR based technologies for high-throughput metabolic engineering of yeast
Abstract : The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a commonly used microorganism for metabolic engineering applications since it has a very well-studied metabolism and it can be easily genetically modified. This led to its use as a cell factory for the production of a wide variety of industrially relevant chemicals such as fuels, cosmetics and food additives. READ MORE

3. Glycoside hydrolases from extremophiles isolated in Iceland. alpha-L-Rhamnosidases and pectin degrading enzymes
Abstract : Extreme environments (high and low temperature, high and low pH, etc.) are inhabited by a vast and diverse flora of microorganisms, which are adapted to these environments (extremophiles). READ MORE

4. The cholecystokinin receptor family : molecular cloning and pharmacological characterization
Abstract : Cholecystokinin (CCK) and gastrin are hormones/neurotransmittors of the gastrointestinal tract and central nervous system. The receptors for gastrin and CCK are members of the G protein-coupled receptor family. The aim of this study was to clone and pharmacologically characterize vertebrate and invertebrate CCK receptors and splice variants. READ MORE

5. Galactoglucomannan-degrading enzymes from Aspergillus niger
Abstract : Galactoglucomannan and galactomannan are among the most abundant plant polysaccharides in nature. The central enzymes involved in their degradation, i.e., endo-1,4-beta-mannanase (beta-mannanase, EC 3. READ MORE
