  1. 1. Ligation-mediated Molecular Analysis of Influenza Subtypes, Splicing and Protein Glycosylation

    Author : Tim Conze; Ulf Landegren; Mats Nilsson; Ola Söderberg; Jörn Glökler; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ligase; proximity ligation; gastric cancer; glycosylation; alternative splicing; avian influenza; padlock probe; Molecular medicine genetics and pathology ; Molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

    Abstract : Binder-based assays are employed throughout the life sciences. Powerful signal amplification techniques have enabled detection of very rare molecule species diluted in simple buffers. Unspecific binding of primary binders leads to increased background in more complex samples. READ MORE

  2. 2. A study on the E3 ligase TRIM21/Ro52

    Author : Alexander Espinosa; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Patients with the systemic autoimmune diseases Sjögren's syndrome (SS) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), often have antibodies against the intracellular protein TRIM21/Ro52. Although the presence of anti-TRIM21/Ro52 autoantibodies is used as a diagnostic tool, the biological function of TRIM21/Ro52 is still unknown. READ MORE

  3. 3. Mechanisms of modulation of PDGFRβ signaling

    Author : Niki Sarri; Carl-Henrik Heldin; Bengt Hallberg; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : Platelet-derived growth factors (PDGF) constitute a family of five functional dimers that bind to two structurally related tyrosine kinase receptors i.e. PDGF receptor α and β (PDGFRα and PDGFRβ, respectively), controlling cell growth, proliferation, and migration in cells of mesenchymal origin.

    Abstract : Throughout history, people have used products from different microorganisms and plants for many medicinal and nutritional applications. Chilli peppers have been used for spicing up food, but also for their pharmacological properties. READ MORE

  5. 5. The TRIM21/Ro52 E3 ligase and its antibodies in autoimmune disease

    Author : Aurélie Ambrosi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Patients with the systemic autoimmune diseases systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) often have autoantibodies against Ro/SSA (composed of the TRIM21/Ro52 and Ro60 antigens) and La/SSB. The biological function of the TRIM21/Ro52 protein itself has remained unknown until its recent description as a tripartite-motif (TRIM) family member and an E3 ligase involved in ubiquitination.
