  2. 11. Biology of a small RNA virus that infects Drosophila melanogaster

    Author : Sajna Anand Sadanandan; Dan Hultmark; Francis Jiggins; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Nora virus; Drosophila melanogaster; virus biology; host-pathogen interaction; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : Drosophila melanogaster has been extensively used as a model organism to study diverse facets of biology, including host-pathogen interactions and the basic biology of its pathogens. I have used the fruit fly as a model to study elementary aspects of Nora virus biology, such as the role of the different proteins encoded by the virus genome. READ MORE

  4. 12. Molecular Breeding of Sugar Beet, Transformation, Transgene silencing, Virus and Herbicide resistance

    Author : Marie Mannerlöf; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Agrobacterium tumefaciens; BNYVV; coat protein; CP4epsps; gene silencing; glyphosate; herbicide; rhizomania; transformation; sugar beet; Beta vulgaris L.; virus; Plant biochemistry; Växtbiokemi;

    Abstract : The main objectives in sugar beet breeding, are to improve yield, quality and to develop disease resistance. The disease resistance may be developed either by conventional, or molecular breeding techniques. The molecular breeding techniques include, methods to genetically engineer plants for expression of introduced genes. READ MORE

  5. 13. Clearing up Culex Confusion : A Basis for Virus Vector Discrimination in Europe

    Author : Jenny C. Hesson; Jan O. Lundström; Örjan Östman; Åke Lundkvist; Anssi Laurila; Laura D Kramer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Culex torrentium; Culex pipiens; mosquitoes; vector; ornithophilic; Sindbis virus; West Nile virus; Populationsbiologi; Population Biology;

    Abstract : Mosquito species of the Culex genus are the enzootic vectors for several bird-associated viruses that cause disease in humans. In Europe, these viruses include Sindbis (SINV), West Nile and Usutu viruses. The morphologically similar females of Cx. torrentium and Cx. READ MORE

  6. 14. Herpes virus retinitis - clinical and virological characteristics

    Author : Joanna von Hofsten; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cytomegalovirus retinitis; acute retinal necrosis; varicella zoster virus; herpes simplex virus;

    Abstract : In this thesis, we first aimed to determine whether there may be herpes virus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in the aqueous humour of asymptomatic individuals (paper II). Presence of herpes simplex virus (HSV), varicella zoster virus (VZV), cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein Barr virus (EBV) in aqueous humour was measured by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in patients eligible for cataract surgery.

  7. 15. Exploration of analytical methods to study motif-mediated host-virus protein-protein interactions

    Author : Eszter Kassa; Ylva Ivarsson; Gilles Travé; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein-protein interaction; short linear motif; affinity purification-mass spectrometry; virus; SARS-CoV-2; TBEV; Analytical Chemistry; Analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : Proteins are responsible for countless processes in living creatures, but most often they do not perform these tasks alone. Rather, they engage in interactions with other proteins, creating whole protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. READ MORE
