1. Development of DNA-based methods for analysis of protein interactions
Abstract : In situ proximity ligation assay (PLA) is a method for detection of protein interactions, post-translational modifications (PTMs) and individual proteins that allows information about their localization in a cell or tissue to be extracted. The method is based on oligonucleotide-conjugated antibodies (proximity probes) that upon binding of two epitopes in close proximity give rise to an amplifiable DNA circle. READ MORE

2. Method development for the analysis of protein interactions
Abstract : Biological processes take place through interactions between macromolecules, such as nucleic acids and proteins. It is, therefore, fundamental to understand the functions of proteins and how they form complexes in order to carry out their role. READ MORE

3. Advancing DNA-based proximity methods
Abstract : Cellular functions are governed by intricate chains of interactions between proteins. In order to properly understand cellular biology one must look into, not only protein function, but also its interacting network. READ MORE

4. Improvements and Applications of in situ Proximity Ligation Assays
Abstract : The cells building up the human body is in constant communication with each other. This communication is done through large complex networks of signaling pathways for inter- and intracellular signal transduction. The signaling activity regulates many important processes, for example cell death, proliferation and differentiation. READ MORE
