  1. 6. The role of human papillomavirus in adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix

    Author : Sonia Andersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Cervix; Adenocarcinoma; HPV; Prevalence; Age; PCR; DNA-sequencing; p53; HPV16 - E6 gene - polymorphism;

    Abstract : Background: Cervical carcinoma is the third most common malignant disease in women worldwide. The absolute frequency of adenocarcinoma of cervix uteri has increased during the last decade and accounts for about 15-20% of invasive cervical cancers. READ MORE

  2. 7. The Regulation of Human Papillomavirus Type16 Early Gene Expression

    Author : Xiaoxu Cui; Avdelningen för medicinsk mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Human papillomavirus; splicing; hnRNP D; m6A; LCR;

    Abstract : AbstractHuman papillomaviruses (HPVs) are small non enveloped viruses that contain a double-stranded circular DNA genome of approximately 8kb in size. It has been estimated that approximately 5% of all cancers are caused by HPV infection. Cervical cancer represents the majority of HPV-associated anogenital cancers worldwide. READ MORE

  3. 8. Characterization and Engineering of Protein-Protein Interactions Involving PDZ Domains

    Author : Andreas Karlsson; Per Jemth; Daniel Otzen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; intrinsically disordered protein regions; PDZ domain; binding kinetics; protein engineering; interaction mechanism; specificity; PDZbody; Chemistry with specialization in Biophysics; Kemi med inriktning mot biofysik;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis has contributed with knowledge to several aspects of protein-protein interaction involving PDZ domains. A substantial amount of our proteome contains regions that are intrinsically disordered but fold upon ligand interaction. READ MORE

  4. 9. Regulation of Human Papillomavirus Type 16 Early and Late Gene Expression

    Author : Haoran Yu; Avdelningen för medicinsk mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HPV16; mRNA; Splicing; gene expression;

    Abstract : Human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) is a cancer-causing virus that contributes to at least 70% of cervical cancer as well as to other anogenital cancers and head and neck cancer. Understanding HPV16 gene regulation is important to enhance our understanding of HPV16 infections and may contribute to development of antiviral drugs. READ MORE

  5. 10. Post-synaptic Density Disc Large Zo-1 (PDZ) Domains : From Folding and Binding to Drug Targeting

    Author : Celestine Chi; Per Jemth; Maria Selmer; Sarah Linse; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; protein-protein interaction; protein folding; and drug design; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Understanding how proteins fold and bind is interesting since these processes are central to most biological activity. Protein folding and protein-protein interaction are by themselves very complex but using a good and robust system to study them could ease some of the hurdles. READ MORE
