  1. 11. The Adenovirus L4-33K Protein : A Key Regulator of Virus-specific Alternative Splicing

    Author : Heidi Törmänen Persson; Göran Akusjärvi; Stefan Schwartz; Marie Öhman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; L4-33K; adenovirus; splicing; phosphorylation; localization; replication centers; L4-22K; MLTU; DNA-PK; DNA-dependent protein kinase; PKA; cAMP-dependent protein kinase; transcription sites; SR protein; Medical Virology; Medicinsk virologi;

    Abstract : Adenoviruses have been extensively studied in the field of gene regulation, since their genes are subjected to a tightly controlled temporal expression during the virus lifetime. The early-to-late shift in adenoviral gene expression distinguishes two completely different programs in gene expression. READ MORE

  2. 12. Viral Strategies to Regulate Transcription and Pre-mRNA Splicing

    Author : Shaoan Fan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Adenovirus E1B-55kDa; E4-ORF4; E4-ORF6 proteins; L1 mRNA; Polyoma virus small T antigen; regulation; transcription; splicing; PP2A; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Medical Virology; medicinsk virologi;

    Abstract : A typical DNA virus encodes for a few key regulatory proteins that modify the host cell biosynthetic machinery to achieve a selective viral gene statement. One such example is illustrated by the adenovirus E4-ORF4 protein, which form an enzymatically active complex with the serine and threonine-specific protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A). READ MORE

  3. 13. Functional analysis of genetic variants in putative low penetrate breast cancer genes

    Author : Haixin Lei; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Breast cancer; low penetrance gene; CDH1; ILC; IDC; mutation; SNP; BA CHI; ATM; EST1; cryptic splice site; SR proteins; dinucleotide repeats; splicing silencer.;

    Abstract : Paper I & II: CDH1 germline mutations predispose individuals to diffuse gastric cancer, but its role in breast cancer is less clear. Somatic CDH1 mutations were reported to be frequent in lobular tumours (ILC), but they have not been found in ductal carcinomas (IDC). READ MORE

  4. 14. Studies on scavenger receptor class B type I and genes implicated in foam cell formation

    Author : Per-Arne Svensson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; scavenger receptor class B type I; high-density lipoprotein; oxidized low-density lipoprotein; macrophages; expression profiling;

    Abstract : The risk of atherosclerosis correlates with plasma levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and is inversely correlated to plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. Accumulation of oxidized LDL (oxLDL) by arterial macrophages is a key event in the development of atherosclerosis. READ MORE

  5. 15. Functional Characterization of the Cellular Protein p32 : A Protein Regulating Adenovirus Transcription and Splicing Through Targeting of Phosphorylation

    Author : Christina Öhrmalm; Göran Akusjärvi; Neus Visa; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Cell and molecular biology; Adenovirus; p32; ASF SF2; E4-ORF4; Splicing; Transcription; CTD; RNA Pol II; Cell- och molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : Cellular processes involved in the conversion of the genetic information from DNA into a protein are often regulated by reversible phosphorylation reactions. By modulating the phosphorylated status of key proteins their activity can either be enhanced or repressed. READ MORE
