  2. 11. Naturally derived cell-penetrating peptides and applications in gene regulation : A study on internalization mechanisms and endosomal escape

    Author : Pontus Lundberg; Ülo Langel; Bernard Lebleu; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; peptide; oligonucleotide; endocytosis; gene regulation; Neurochemistry; Neurokemi;

    Abstract : Cell-penetrating peptides are a class of peptides which have achieved a lot of recognition due to their vector abilities. Since their discovery over a decade ago, there has been an uncertainty concerning the mechanism by which they are internalized into the cells. READ MORE

  4. 12. Strategies for the Discovery of Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes from Environmental Bacteria

    Author : Johan Larsbrink; Vincent Bulone; Harry Brumer; Birte Svensson; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CAZyme discovery; xyloglucan; polysaccharide-utilisation locus; microbiota; α-xylosidase; GH31; transglucosidase; human gut; SRA - Molekylär biovetenskap; SRA - Molecular Bioscience;

    Abstract : The focus of this thesis is a comparative study of approaches in discovery of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes). CAZymes synthesise, bind to, and degrade all the multitude of carbohydrates found in nature. READ MORE

  5. 13. Discovery and Characterization of a Novel Microtubule Associated Protein Involved in Cellulose Biosynthesis

    Author : Alex Selvanayagam Rajangam; Tuula Teeri; Anne-Mie Emons; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MAP; unknown gene; cellulose biosynthesis; Populus; microtubule; DCB; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

    Abstract : Cell walls are a distinct feature of plants and their chemical constituents, cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin, are economically valuable. Plant fibres rich in cellulose, which mainly resides in their cell wall, are traditionally used in making paper and textiles. READ MORE

  6. 14. Applications of Four-Colour Fluorescent Primer Extension Technology for SNP Analysis and Discovery

    Author : Annika Ahlford; Ann-Christine Syvänen; Mats Nilsson; David Schwartz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Single nucleotide polymorphism; Genotyping; Massively parallel sequencing; Gene mapping; Lab-on-a-chip; Medical genetics; Medicinsk genetik; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

    Abstract : Studies on genetic variation can reveal effects on traits and disease, both in humans and in model organisms. Good technology for the analysis of DNA sequence variations is critical. Currently the development towards assays for large-scale and parallel DNA sequencing and genotyping is progressing rapidly. READ MORE

  7. 15. Gene networks from high-throughput data : Reverse engineering and analysis

    Author : Mika Gustafsson; Michael Hörnquist; Jesper Tegnér; Reinhard Guthke; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Experimental innovations starting in the 1990’s leading to the advent of high-throughput experiments in cellular biology have made it possible to measure thousands of genes simultaneously at a modest cost. This enables the discovery of new unexpected relationships between genes in addition to the possibility of falsify existing. READ MORE
