  1. 1. Downstream functions of the Sty1 MAPK pathway in S. pombe

    Author : Eva Asp; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; S.pombe; MAPK; Sty1; Mkp1; oxidative stress; translation; mRNA stability;

    Abstract : MAP kinase pathways are involved in the response to environmental changes in eukaryotic cells regulating transcriptional and translational events. In S. READ MORE

  2. 2. Exploring chromatin organization and transcription in S. pombe and hematopoietic development

    Author : Wenbo Dong; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : DNA in the eukaryotic nucleus is organized into histone-DNA complex, so-called chromatin, through forming an array of nucleosomes. Each nucleosome consists of a 147bp DNA wrapped around a histone octamer harboring two of each H2A-H2B and H3-H4. Chromatin is orderly packed several times forming a chromosome structure. READ MORE

  3. 3. Importance of the Clr2 protein in heterochromatin formation in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe

    Author : Daniel Steinhauf; Leif Andersson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Clr2; Yeast; Heterochromatin; Fission yeast; Schizosaccharomyces pombe; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Epigenetics is an area of biology that studies heritable changes in gene ex- pression without any change in the DNA sequence. The most studied epige- netic mechanisms are DNA methylation, RNA interference and histone mod- ifications. READ MORE

  4. 4. The transcription machinery in schizosaccharomyces pombe and its regulation

    Author : Henrik Spåhr; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Gene expression; transcription regulation; in vitro; RNA polymerase II; holoenzyme; mediator; TBP; TFIIB; TFIIF; TFIIH; Srb8-11; Pmc;

    Abstract : The Mediator complex acts as a bridge, conveying regulatory information from enhancers and other control elements to the general transcription machinery. The Mediator was originally identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and is required for the basal and regulated expression of nearly all RNA polymerase II dependent genes. READ MORE

  5. 5. Fission yeast mediator complex and its role in transcriptional regulation

    Author : Olga Khorosjutina; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Mediator is an evolutionary conserved co-activator complex that regulates transcription of protein encoding genes in eukaryotes. This multiprotein complex was first identified in budding yeast and shown to be indispensable for RNA polymerase II (pol II) dependent transcription. READ MORE
