16. Colorectal cancer : genome, transcriptone and proteome dynamics
Sammanfattning : Colorectal carcinomas are the third most common malignancies in the Western World. Despite screening programs about 70% of these tumors are detected at advanced stages. Late diagnosis, however, results in a significant reduction of average survival times. LÄS MER
17. The function of Smc5/6 in Drosophila development and at the heterochromatin-like locus HMR in budding yeast
Sammanfattning : The structural maintenance of chromosome 5/6 (Smc5/6) complex is one out of many factors in the cell that maintain genome stability. Smc5/6 has been implicated in processes such as DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair, replication progression, and chromosome segregation. LÄS MER
18. Comparative studies of alkylating and N-heterocyclic compounds on different genetic endpoints with special emphasis on amplification of minisatellite sequences
Sammanfattning : Several mutational events are involved in the multistage process of cancer. Genetic instability of tumor DNA is shown in a variety of genetic changes such as point mutations, chromosomal aberrations, aneuploidy, DNA amplification and somatic recombination. LÄS MER
19. Genome dynamics and virulence in the human pathogen Candida glabrata
Sammanfattning : Although the yeast Candida glabrata is considered to be a part of the commensal microflora in healthy individuals, during the last years it has been frequently isolated from patients with mucosal and systemic fungal infections. Now it is considered as the second most frequently isolated pathogenic yeast after Candida albicans. Despite its name, C. LÄS MER
20. Involvement of evolutionarily plastic regions in cancer associated CHR3 aberrations
Sammanfattning : A functional test to identify tumor antagonizing regions on chromosome 3 (chr3), called the Elimination Test, was developed in our group. It is based on microcell mediated transfer of human chr3 into mouse or human tumor cells and analysis of the monochromosomal hybrids after their growth in vivo. LÄS MER
