2. 1. On Transcriptome Sequencing

   Author : Daniel Klevebring; Joakim Lundeberg; Ulf Gyllensten; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Transcriptome; RNA-seq; DNA sequencing; gene expression profiling; non-coding RNA; small RNA; Functional genomics; Funktionsgenomik; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik; Genetics; Genetik; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Cell biology; Cellbiologi;

   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

4. 2. Interpreting the human transcriptome

   Author : Beata Werne Solnestam; Joakim Lundeberg; Piero Carninci; KTH; []
   Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Transcriptome; RNA sequencing; high-throughput sequencing; gene expression profiling; multiplex amplification; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

   Abstract : The human body is made of billions of cells and nearly all have the same genome. However, there is a high diversity of cells, resulted from what part of the genome the cells use, i.e. which RNA molecules are expressed. READ MORE

5. 3. Mining the transcriptome - methods and applications

   Author : Valtteri Wirta; Joakim Lundeberg; John Quackenbush; KTH; []
   Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; transcriptome; gene expression profiling; EST; microarray; RNA amplification; stem cells; neurosphere; Genetic engineering including functional genomics; Genteknik inkl. funktionsgenomik;

   Abstract : Regulation of gene expression occupies a central role in the control of the flow of genetic information from genes to proteins. Regulatory events on multiple levels ensure that the majority of the genes are expressed under controlled circumstances to yield temporally controlled, cell and tissue-specific expression patterns.

6. 4. Genome and Transcriptome Comparisons between Human and Chimpanzee

   Author : Anna Wetterbom; Ulf Gyllensten; Lucia Cavelier; Tomas Bergström; Evan Eichler; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; human; chimpanzee; genome; transcriptome; comparative studies; exon arrays; next-generation sequencing; premature termination codon; alternative splicing; primate evolution; Molecular medicine genetics and pathology ; Molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ; Bioinformatik; Bioinformatics;

   Abstract : The chimpanzee is humankind’s closest living relative and the two species diverged ~6 million years ago. Comparative studies of the human and chimpanzee genomes and transcriptomes are of great interest to understand the molecular mechanisms of speciation and the development of species-specific traits.

7. 5. Methylome and Transcriptome Profiling of Hepatocytes Derived from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells

   Author : Nidal Ghosheh; Göteborgs universitet; Göteborgs universitet; Gothenburg University; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; human pluripotent stem cells; gene transcription; gene regulation; DNA methylation; transcriptome; hepatocytes;

   Abstract : Six hundred million people suffering from liver diseases worldwide of which the lethality is two million. Freshly isolated hepatocytes from the liver have been used for transplantation purposes and are extensively used to recapitulate drug metabolism. READ MORE
