1. Methyltransferase Ash1, histone methylation and their impact on Polycomb repression
Sammanfattning : Antagonistic interactions between Polycomb Group (PcG) and Trithorax Group (TrxG) proteins orchestrate the expression of key developmental genes. Distinct maternally loaded repressors establish the silenced state of these genes in cells where they should not be expressed and later PcG proteins sense whether a target gene is inactive and maintain the repression throughout multiple cell divisions.

2. Chromatin, histones, and epigenetic tags
Sammanfattning : The fundamental building blocks of chromatin are the nucleosomes. Each such unit is composed of about 200 bp of DNA, the well-conserved core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4) and a linker histone (H1). LÄS MER
3. Phylogeny and Taxonomy of Childia (Acoela) : New characters for unraveling acoel phylogenies from molecules, ultrastructure, immunocytochemistry and confocal microscopy
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a comprehensive phylogenetic and taxonomic study of an acoel subgroup, the Childiidae. Members of this taxon are characterized by well-developed male copulatory organs with conical/cylindrical stylets. LÄS MER
4. Biomarkers in endotoxemia with a special interest in citrullinated histone H3
Sammanfattning : Background: Sepsis with multi-organ failure has an unacceptably high mortality rate of 25- 30% despite the use of antibiotics and modern intensive care. Attenuating the multi-organ failure and finding new biomarkers for early detection of septic shock would be of high clinical relevance in order to improve outcome. LÄS MER
5. The Interaction of the Adenovirus E1B-55K Protein with a Histone Deacetylase Complex: Its Importance in Regulation of P53 Protein Functions
Sammanfattning : The human tumour suppressor protein p53 is an effective inhibitor of cell growth, by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. However, p53-induced cell growth inhibition can be detrimental for virus multiplication. Therefore, viruses encode for proteins, which can interfere with the functions of the p53 protein. LÄS MER
