  1. 1. Functional characterization of the human adenovirus pVII protein and non-coding VA RNAI

    Author : Raviteja Inturi; Tanel Punga; Goran Akusjarvi; Thomas Dobner; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adenovirus; VA RNA; protein VII; Ubiquitination; proteasome; anti-viral; Medical Biochemistry; Medicinsk biokemi; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; Medical Virology; Medicinsk virologi;

    Abstract : Human adenovirus (HAdV) is a common pathogen causing a broad spectrum of diseases. HAdV encodes the pVII protein, which is involved in nuclear delivery, protection and expression of viral DNA. To suppress the cellular interferon (IFN) and RNA interference (RNAi) systems, HAdVs encode non-coding virus-associated (VA) RNAs. READ MORE

  2. 2. Evolution of protein and non-coding RNA genes studied with comparative genomics

    Author : Marcela Davila Lopez; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bioinformatics; evolution; non-coding RNA; gene prediction; gene order; bidirectional promoter; homologue prediction; secondary structure; RNAse P; RNase MRP;

    Abstract : The identification of protein and non-coding RNA (ncRNA) genes is one important step in the analysis of a genome. This thesis focuses on the identification and analysis of proteins and ncRNAs homologues by exploiting a variety of computational methods in order to reach conclusions as to their structure, function, evolution and regulation.

  3. 3. Matrix degrading proteases in the ovary : expression and function

    Author : Patrik Wahlberg; Tor Ny; Ilpo Huhtaniemi; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biochemistry; ovary; ovulation; corpus luteum; plasminogen; PA; MMP; rat; mouse; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Extracellular matrix degrading proteases from the plasminogen (plg) activator (PA) and the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) systems have been implicated as important mediators of ovulation and corpus luteum (CL) formation and regression. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the expression and regulation of PAs and MMPs in the ovary and to examine their functional roles for CL formation and function. READ MORE

  4. 4. Genome-Wide Studies of Transcriptional Regulation in Mammalian Cells

    Author : Ola Wallerman; Claes Wadelius; Jussi Taipale; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ChIP; ChIP-chip; ChIP-seq; transcription factors; motif discovery; nucleosome positioning; HepG2; genome-wide; RNA-seq; Medical genetics; Medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics; Medicinsk genetik;

    Abstract : The key to the complexity of higher organisms lies not in the number of protein coding genes they carry, but rather in the intrinsic complexity of the gene regulatory networks. The major effectors of transcriptional regulation are proteins called transcription factors, and in this thesis four papers describing genome-wide studies of seven such factors are presented, together with studies on components of the chromatin and transcriptome.

  5. 5. Molecular genetic studies on cystinuria

    Author : Lotta Harnevik; Peter Söderkvist; Catharina Larsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Amino acid transport systems; Amino acids diamino; Mutation; Sulphydryl compounds; urine; Cystine; Carrier proteins; Cystinuria; DNA mutational analysis; Dog diseases; genetic; Membrane glycoproteins; Medical genetics; Medicinsk genetik;

    Abstract : Cystinuria is defined as an inherited disorder characterized by increased urinary excretion of cystine and the dibasic amino acids arginine, lysine and ornithine. The only clinical manifestation of cystinuria is renal cystine stone formation due to the low solubility of cystine in the urine. READ MORE
