  1. 1. Genomic signatures in viruses

    Author : Joel Gustafsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Virus evolution; Bioinformatics; Markov Chains; Genomic signatures;

    Abstract : In an age of global pandemics, studying how viruses and their genomes evolve is of great importance. It has previously been found that the genomes of many eukaryotes and prokaryotes have specific preferences for nucleotides, dinucleotides, and codons. READ MORE

  2. 2. Symbiosis in Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi : Unearthing genomic signatures

    Author : Shadi Eshghi Sahraei; Anna Rosling; Vasilis Kokkoris; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi; mutualistic symbiosis; soil microeukaryotic communities; phylogenomics; single spore assembly; gene family evolution; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Genetics; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär genetik;

    Abstract : Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi have been on earth since 470 million years ago. AM fungi form mutualistic symbiosis with most terrestrial plants and thus, are thought to have played important roles in land colonization together with plants. READ MORE

  3. 3. Molecular Signatures of Cancer

    Author : Esther Edlundh-Rose; Joakim Lundeberg; Peter Södervist; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; : BRAF; NRAS; MGMT; methylation; pyrosequencing; microarray technology; gene expression analysis; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : Cancer is an important public health concern in the western world, responsible for around 25% of all deaths. Although improvements have been made in the diagnosis of cancer, treatment of disseminated disease is inefficient, highlighting the need for new and improved methods of diagnosis and therapy.

  4. 4. Computational studies of mutational sequence signatures in cancer genomes

    Author : Markus Lindberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cancer; Genomcis; Mutational signatures; Ultraviolet light; Multifocal tumors;

    Abstract : Cancer typically forms when mutational processes modify key cancer driver genes, resulting in positive selection and tumor growth. As such, mutational processes are at the core of the disease. Trinucleotide mutational signatures have emerged in the last decade as essential tools for analysis of mutational processes. READ MORE

  5. 5. Gamma Spectrometric Measurements Of Nuclear Material For Nuclear Forensic Purposes

    Author : Anna Vesterlund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nuclear forensics; americium; signatures; uranium; gamma spectrometry; abundance;

    Abstract : Nuclear forensics is a scientific discipline that aims to aid in criminal investigations concerning illicit use of nuclear and other radioactive material. The discipline aims to find signatures within the nuclear material that can help to find the attribution, or the origin and intended use of the seized material. READ MORE
