  2. 11. Chromosome-wide gene regulatory mechanisms in Drosophila melanogaster

    Author : Anna-Mia Johansson; Jan Larsson; Kristen M. Johansen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chromatin structure; Drosophila; POF; disage compensation; gene expression; MSL; heterochromatin; Genetics; Genetik; genetik; Genetics;

    Abstract : In Drosophila there are two different chromosome-wide targeting systems, the dosage compensation system that equalizes the transcriptional output from X-linked genes between males and females, and the regulation of the 4th chromosome mediated by the POF protein.   The best studied of these two mechanisms is the dosage compensation system.

  5. 13. Evolution of protein and non-coding RNA genes studied with comparative genomics

    Author : Marcela Davila Lopez; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bioinformatics; evolution; non-coding RNA; gene prediction; gene order; bidirectional promoter; homologue prediction; secondary structure; RNAse P; RNase MRP;

    Abstract : The identification of protein and non-coding RNA (ncRNA) genes is one important step in the analysis of a genome. This thesis focuses on the identification and analysis of proteins and ncRNAs homologues by exploiting a variety of computational methods in order to reach conclusions as to their structure, function, evolution and regulation.

  6. 14. Classification, Evolution, Pharmacology and Structure of G protein-coupled Receptors

    Author : Malin C Lagerström; Helgi B. Schiöth; Robert Fredriksson; Anthony J. Harmar; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacology; Classification; Structure; Pharmacology; Evolution; G protein-coupled receptor; Farmakologi; Pharmacological research; Farmakologisk forskning;

    Abstract : G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) are integral membrane proteins with seven α-helices that translate a remarkable diversity of signals into cellular responses. The superfamily of GPCRs is among the largest and most diverse protein families in vertebrates. READ MORE

  7. 15. Hypospadias : gene mapping and candidate gene studied

    Author : Thi Thai Hanh Trinh; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Hypospadias is a common congenital malformation in boys, characterized by incomplete fusion of the urethral folds, abnormal opening of urethra and different degrees of curvature of the penis. In Sweden, the incidence of hypospadias is 1.14 per 300 male live-births according to the annual Swedish Malformation Registry. READ MORE
