  5. 10. Functional characterization of the biological significance of the ZBED6/ZC3H11A locus in placental mammals

    Författare :Shady Younis; Leif Andersson; Ola Hansson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ZBED6; IGF2; ZC3H11A; Muscle development; Transcriptome analysis; CRISPR Cas9; mRNA export; Molekylär genetik; Molecular Genetics; Bioinformatik; Bioinformatics;

    Sammanfattning : The recent advances in molecular and computational biology have made possible the study of complicated transcriptional regulatory networks that control a wide range of biological processes and phenotypic traits. In this thesis, several approaches were combined including next generation sequencing, gene expression profiling, chromatin and RNA immunoprecipitation, bioinformatics and genome editing methods in order to characterize the biological significance of the ZBED6 and ZC3H11A genes.
