  1. 11. Genetic Analyses using Rolling Circle or PCR Amplified Padlock Probes

    Author : Johan Banér; Sanjay Tyagi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Molecular medicine; Padlock probes; rolling circle amplification; PCR; genotyping; microarray; expression analysis; Molekylärmedicin; Molecular medicine genetics and pathology ; Molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ; Medical Genetics; medicinsk genetik;

    Abstract : Padlock probes are useful in a variety of genetic applications, some of which require that the probes are amplified in order to generate detectable signals. Two general padlock amplification methods, RCA and PCR, are discussed in this thesis. READ MORE

  2. 12. Methods for Analyzing Genomes

    Author : Patrik L. Ståhl; Joakim Lundeberg; Ivo Gut; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; array; sequence capture; genotyping; trinucleotide threading; sequencing; massively parallel sequencing; single molecule sequencing; Visual DNA; p53; single nucleotide polymorphism; biomarker; Genetics; Genetik;

    Abstract : The human genome reference sequence has given us a two‐dimensional blueprint of our inherited code of life, but we need to employ modern‐day technology to expand our knowledge into a third dimension. Inter‐individual and intra‐individual variation has been shown to be larger than anticipated, and the mode of genetic regulation more complex. READ MORE

  3. 13. Molecular Tools for Nucleic Acid Analysis

    Author : Deirdre O'Meara; KTH; []
    Keywords : nucleic acid capture; modular probes; biosensor; bio-magnetic separation; hepatitis C; sequencing; pyrosequencing; mutation detection; HIV-1; drug resistance; SNP; allele-specific extension; apyrase; genotyping.;

    Abstract : Nucleic acid technology has assumed an essential role invarious areas ofin vitrodiagnostics ranging from infectious diseasediagnosis to human genetics. An important requirement of suchmolecular methods is that they achieve high sensitivity andspecificity with a fast turnaround time in a cost-effectivemanner. READ MORE

  4. 14. Chlamydia trachomatis: Development of molecular typing methods and applications in epidemiology

    Author : Markus Klint; Björn Herrmann; Jonas Blomberg; Michael Ward; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Chlamydia trachomatis; Lymphogranuloma venereum; Genotyping; MLST; nvCT; hctB; Hc2; Clinical bacteriology; Klinisk bakteriologi; Klinisk bakteriologi; Clinical Bacteriology;

    Abstract : A general aim was to combine molecular typing methods with clinical background information to increase epidemiological knowledge about Chlamydia trachomatis infections.An outbreak of Lymfogranuloma venereum (LGV), caused by a more invasive variant of C. trachomatis, was reported from the Netherlands in 2003 among men who have sex with men (MSM).

  5. 15. From Tissue to Mutations : Genetic Profiling of Colorectal Cancer

    Author : Lucy Mathot; Tobias Sjöblom; Mats Nilsson; Alberto Bardelli; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Nucleic acid extraction; genotyping; targeted sequencing; mutation analysis; colorectal cancer; metastatic disease; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Abstract : Comprehensive characterisation of the mutational landscapes of solid tumours is a multistep process involving the collection of suitable samples, the extraction of nucleic acids and the preparation of these materials for mutational analyses. In this thesis, I aimed to develop a streamlined process for the analysis of colorectal cancer (CRC) patient samples in order to identify novel mutations that hallmark the development of advanced disease.
