  1. 11. The ABC of KRAB zinc finger proteins

    Author : Camilla Looman; Lars Hellman; Lars-Gunnar Larsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; Krüppel zinc finger; KRAB; transcription; repression; evolution; Biologi; Biology; Biologi; immunologi; Immunology;

    Abstract : All living organisms consist of cells and the identity of a cell is defined by the genes it expresses. To assure proper function, a cell receives continuous information on which genes to turn on and off. This information is, to a large extent, provided by transcription factors. READ MORE

  2. 12. Trait anxiety as a determinant of psychological test results

    Author : Roger Persson; Institutionen för psykologi; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Environmental health; industrial medicine; Occupational health; work stress; toxic encephalopathy; symptom reporting; neuropsychological testing; organic solvents; repression; psychological methods; social desirability; anxiety; Personality traits; Medicin människa och djur ; Miljömedicin; arbetsmiljömedicin; Yrkesmedicin;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the problem of interpreting test scores. The intention has been to explore and elucidate the effects of trait anxiety on test scores that have been obtained in applied research settings. READ MORE

  3. 13. Towards a comprehensive modeling framework for studying glucose repression in yeast

    Author : Linnea Österberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; budding yeast; glucose repression; metabolism; mathematical modelling; signaling;

    Abstract : The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an important model organism for human health and for industry applications as a cell factory. For both purposes, it has been an important organism for studying glucose repression. READ MORE

  4. 14. Dynamic regulation of the Mig1 transcriptional repressor under glucose de/repression

    Author : Sviatlana Shashkova; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cell signalling; glucose repression; Mig1; phosphorylation; Saccharomyces cerevisiae;

    Abstract : The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae AMP-activated protein kinase/SNF1 is a member of a highly conserved protein family present in all eukaryotes. Snf1 regulates energy homeostasis; in yeast, it is best-known for its role in cellular adaptation to glucose limitation. READ MORE

  5. 15. Molecular mechanisms of transcriptional repression by the orphan receptor SHP

    Author : Ann Båvner; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Nuclear receptor; repression; small heterodimer partner; co-regulator;

    Abstract : SHP (Small Heterodimer Partner) is an atypical orphan member of the mammalian nuclear receptor family that consists of only a putative ligand-binding domain and thus cannot bind DNA. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the molecular mechanisms of the transcriptionally inhibitory effect of SHP. READ MORE
