  1. 1. NMR studies of DNA/RNA-binding proteins

    Author : Helena Berglund; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the structure and internal dynamics inDNA and RNA-binding proteins. While it has long been known thata proper three-dimensional structure is essential for aprotein's ability to interact with other biomolecules, theinfluence of the inherent protein dynamics is less wellunderstood.

  2. 2. RNA binding proteins and epigenetics in SCA7

    Author : Frida Niss; Anna-Lena Ström; Ann-Kristin Östlund-Farrants; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Abstract : Polyglutamine diseases are a group of nine disorders that includes, among others SCA7. The common denominator is an expanded glutamine tract in the respective disease protein caused by unstable replication during meiosis. READ MORE

  3. 3. RNA-binding proteins in transcription and genome integrity

    Author : Chiara Pederiva; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : For decades, it was believed that RNA was merely an intermediate step between DNA and protein effectors. It is now appreciated that RNA is an extremely versatile molecule that affects almost every aspect inside a cell. READ MORE

  4. 4. Structural and Functional Studies of Wilms Tumour Protein - WT1; Novel Insights into Functionality of Zinc Finger Proteins

    Author : Elmar Nurmemmedov; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Naturvetenskap; Natural science; function; structure; transcription factor; cancer; affinity; kinetics; Biacore; RNA binding; DNA binding; Wilms tumour WT1 ; zinc finger;

    Abstract : The molecular process under which message in DNA is relayed onto RNA is called transcription, and it accomplished through involvement of so-called transcription factors. Zinc finger proteins are one of the most abundant classes of regulatory proteins in eukaryotic cells where they play central roles in a variety of cellular activities. READ MORE

  5. 5. Studies of genes involved in regulating flowering time in Arabidopsis

    Author : Maria Svensson; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arabidopsis thaliana; flowering time; fold recognition; GA biosynthesis; promoter trapping; RNA-binding; T-DNA tagging; Biology; Biologi; Naturvetenskap; Natural sciences;

    Abstract : Transition from a vegetative growth phase to flowering in plants occurs in response to both environmental conditions and endogenous signals. Identification of genes that are involved in regulating the time of flowering is of great importance in agri- and horticulture. READ MORE
