6. Bactericidal/Permeability-Increasing Protein (BPI) and Proteinase 3: Studies at the Transcriptional Level
Sammanfattning : In myelopoiesis, neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages are formed from a common myeloid precursor cell in the bone marow. During maturation of neutrophils, cytoplasmic granules are formed in the cells and the content of these granules is critical for the function of neutrophils in the first line of defense against invading microorganisms.

7. Molecular studies of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1)
Sammanfattning : Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is an autosomal dominant familial cancer syndrome characterized by tumors of the parathyroids, the endocrine pancreas and anterior pituitary. The MEN1 locus has been previously localized to chromosome 11q13 and subsequently a MEN1 minimum region was defined by a combination of linkage and tumor deletion studies. LÄS MER
8. Assignment and assessment of orthology and gene function
Sammanfattning : Several genomes from different species have been sequenced over the last years, most notably the human genome. An important task of computational biology is to classify and functionally annotate the large amount of sequence data created by the genome sequencing projects. LÄS MER
9. Functional Inference from Orthology and Domain Architecture
Sammanfattning : Proteins are the basic building blocks of all living organisms. They play a central role in determining the structure of living beings and are required for essential chemical reactions. One of the main challenges in bioinformatics is to characterize the function of all proteins. LÄS MER
10. Analyses of protein evolution, function, and architecture
Sammanfattning : Proteins can evolve over time in many different ways. An ancestral protein sequence inherited in different species will gradually undergo changes in primary sequence and sometimes in domain architecture. Some of these changes will affect its function, and evolutionary analyses can be used to predict function shift. LÄS MER
