11. All Roads Lead to the Non-Coding RNome : Evolution of Multicellularity and Host Response to Bacterial Infection
Abstract : The ability to control gene expression is fundamental for all living organisms. Therefore, a large variety of regulatory mechanisms exist in each cell which are essential for e.g. developmental processes and to quickly adapt to different cellular stresses such as infection. READ MORE

12. Regulation of TGFβ signaling by long non-coding RNAs and ADP-ribosylation
Abstract : Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) signaling pathways participate in embryonic development and tissue homeostasis and have a dual role in cancer. TGFβ acts as a tumor suppressor that promotes cell cycle arrest and apoptosis at initial stages of tumorigenesis. READ MORE

13. Nucleic Acids as Drug Targets - Influence of Platinum Complexes on Duplex Stability and Binding Kinetics
Abstract : Gaining a detailed understanding of how human cells are affected by metal-based drugs is crucial, since these drugs have shown great potential in cancer treatment. Cisplatin is used to treat many different types of cancer, e.g. testicular, ovarian, melanoma, bladder, non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, myelomas and lymphomas. READ MORE

14. Small RNA-mediated Regulation of Gene Expression in Escherichia coli
Abstract : Non-coding RNAs are highly abundant regulators of gene expression in all kingdoms of life that often play important roles in vital cellular functions. In bacteria, small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) usually act post-transcriptionally by regulating mRNAs through base pairing within ribosome binding sites (RBS), thereby inhibiting translation initiation.

15. On Transcriptome Sequencing
Abstract : This thesis is about the use of massive DNA sequencing to investigate the transcriptome. During recent decades, several studies have made it clear that the transcriptome comprises a more complex set of biochemical machinery than was previously believed. READ MORE
