  2. 1. Exploring genetic heterogeneity in cancer using high-throughput DNA and RNA sequencing

    Author : Erik Fasterius; Cristina Al-Khalili Szigyarto; Mathias Uhlén; Peter-Bram ’t Hoen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biotechnology; bioinformatics; RNA-seq; WGS; WES; systems biology; variant analysis; single nucleotide variant; gene expression; machine learning; clustering; open source; R; bioconductor; Python; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : High-throughput sequencing (HTS) technology has revolutionised the biomedical sciences, where it is used to analyse the genetic makeup and gene expression patterns of both primary patient tissue samples and models cultivated in vitro. This makes it especially useful for research on cancer, a disease that is characterised by its deadliness and genetic heterogeneity. READ MORE

  4. 2. The relationship between orthology, protein domain architecture and protein function

    Author : Kristoffer Forslund; Erik Sonnhammer; Cristina Al-Khalili Szigyarto; Sarah Teichmann; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; homology; orthology; paralogy; gene duplications; protein function prediction; low-complexity regions; protein domains; domain architecture evolution; introns; intron position conservation; orthology conjecture; domain grammar hypothesis; biokemi; inriktning teoretisk kemi; Biochemistry with Emphasis on Theoretical Chemistry;

    Abstract : Lacking experimental data, protein function is often predicted from evolutionary and protein structure theory. Under the 'domain grammar' hypothesis the function of a protein follows from the domains it encodes. READ MORE

  5. 3. Proteomic strategies for blood biomarker development in rare dystrophinopathies

    Author : Camilla Johansson; Cristina Al-Khalili Szigyarto; Ola Söderberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Duchenne muscular dystrophy; Becker muscular dystrophy; proteomics; affinity-proteomics; biomarkers; DIA-MS; SRM-MS; immunoassay; suspension bead arrays; Duchenne muskeldystrofi; Becker muskeldystrofi; proteomik; affinitetsproteomik; biomarkörer; DIA-MS; SRM-MS; immunoassay; suspension bead array; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) are two rare genetic disorders of the family dystrophinopathy. They are both caused by the lack of, or reduced production of, the protein dystrophin. READ MORE

  6. 4. Development of DNA-based methods for analysis of protein interactions

    Author : Axel Klaesson; Ola Söderberg; Mats Nilsson; Cristina Al-Khalili Szigyarto; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; In situ proximity ligation assay PLA ; rolling circle amplification RCA ; Hybridization chain reaction HCR ; proxHCR; Oligonucleotide design; Protein-protein interactions; Post-translational modifications.; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science; Molekylär cellbiologi; Molecular Cellbiology;

    Abstract : In situ proximity ligation assay (PLA) is a method for detection of protein interactions, post-translational modifications (PTMs) and individual proteins that allows information about their localization in a cell or tissue to be extracted. The method is based on oligonucleotide-conjugated antibodies (proximity probes) that upon binding of two epitopes in close proximity give rise to an amplifiable DNA circle. READ MORE

  7. 5. Analysis of PDGF receptor internalization and signaling using proximity ligation assays

    Author : Marie Rubin Sander; Ola Söderberg; Cristina Al-Khalili Szigyarto; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; PDGFRβ; dynamin; proteolytic cleavage; signaling; internalization; protein-protein interaction; short linear motif; viral hijack; in situ PLA; Molboolean;

    Abstract : Cell signaling is mediated by signaling proteins that relay the signal in an intricate network of interactions before the signal is translated into a biological response. Short linear motifs (SLiMs) in intrinsically disordered regions of proteins serve as docking sites for protein interaction in all aspects of cell regulation including signal transduction. READ MORE
