  1. 1. Plasticity and variation of synaptic responses in hippocampus. Role of AMPA and NMDA receptors

    Author : Yin-Ping Niu; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : learning and memory; synaptic plasticity; hippocampus; synapse; AMPA receptor; NMDA receptor; LTP; LTD; CV; TFS;

    Abstract : It is generally believed that synaptic plasticity in the central nervous system may underlie learning and memory as well as neuronal development. The most wellstudied examples of such synaptic plasticity are long-term potentiation (LTP) andlong-term depression (LTD). READ MORE

  2. 2. Stelar Performance Under Drought : Regulation of Developmental Robustness and Plasticity of the Arabidopsis Root Xylem

    Author : Prashanth Ramachandran; Annelie Carlsbecker; Ari Pekka Mähönen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HD-ZIP III TFs; miR165; Xylem; ABA; VND; plasticity; water deficit; Biologi med inriktning mot fysiologisk botanik; Biology with specialization in Physiological Botany;

    Abstract : Plants have evolved genetic mechanisms to sense, modulate and modify developmental programs in response to the changing environment. This brings forth challenges in stably generating tissue patterns while simultaneously allowing amenability. READ MORE

  3. 3. Decoding the contribution of transcription factors to cell fate determination

    Author : Bei Wei; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : It is well accepted that transcription factors (TFs) play a crucial role in determining cell identity. Although RNA expression or protein abundance data show that a large fraction of the total TFs are expressed in a given cell, however, only a small set of them is essential for specifying cell identity.

  4. 4. Determination of transcription factor binding specificities

    Author : Arttu Jolma; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The term "genetic code" refers to the way in which the information encoded in nucleic acids is converted into the amino-acid sequence of proteins. There is however also a second genetic code, one that is used by the cells to read the blueprints of the entire organism. READ MORE

  5. 5. The role of RFX transcription factors in neurons and in the human brain

    Author : Debora Sugiaman-Trapman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : RFX transcription factors (TFs) are conserved in animals, fungi and some amoebae, but not in algae, plants and protozoan species. The conservation is based on the protein sequence of the DNA binding domain (DBD). The RFX DBD recognizes and binds to a DNA sequence motif called the X-box. READ MORE
