  1. 21. Genetic mechanisms regulating proliferation and cell specification in the Drosophila embryonic CNS

    Författare :Shahrzad Bahrampour; Stefan Thor; Jan-Ingvar Jönsson; Simon Sprecher; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The central nervous system (CNS) consists of an enormous number of cells, and large cellular variance, integrated into an elaborate network. The CNS is the most complex animal organ, and therefore its establishment must be controlled by many different genetic programs. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Long Noncoding RNA Mediated Regulation of Imprinted Genes

    Författare :Faizaan Mohammad; Chandrasekhar Kanduri; Kristian Helin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Genomic imprinting; noncoding RNA; epigenetics; chromatin; DNA methylation; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon that causes a subset of mammalian genes to be expressed from only one allele in a parent-of-origin manner. The defects in the imprinting regulation result in disorders that affect development, growth and metabolism. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Computational modelling in systems biology: from rewriting cell fates to detecting tumours

    Författare :Emil Andersson; Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC); []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Beräkningsmodeller; Systembiologi; Genreguleringsnätverk; Cellomprogrammering; Energilandskap; iPSC; Agentbaserad modellering; T-cellsutveckling; Maskininlärning; Tumördiagnostik; Computational modelling; Systems biology; Gene regulatory network; Cell reprogramming; Energy landscape; iPSC; Agent-based modelling; Multi-scale modelling; T-cell development; Machine learning; Tumour diagnostics;

    Sammanfattning : Computational modelling is becoming an increasingly important tool in biological research. By performing computer simulations of models, it becomes possible to test theories about a biological system against experimental data. Simulations can also be used as a replacement for experiments otherwise unattainable. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Epigenetic Control of Mammalian Development : Studies on an imprinting control region

    Författare :Liang Liu; Pärt Peterson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Epigenetic; Genomic imprinting; DNA methylation; Igf2; H19; Insulator; CTCF; Imprinting control region; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; zoologisk utvecklingsbiologi; Animal Development;

    Sammanfattning : A subset of autosomal genes is preferentially or exclusively expressed from one of the parental alleles. This phenomenon, termed genomic imprinting, is highlighted by the neighboring Igf2 and H19 genes, which are monoallelically expressed on opposite parental chromosomes. These features are governed by a 2. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Finding fitness : empirical and theoretical explorations of inferring fitness effects from population-level SNP data

    Författare :Bea Angelica Andersson; Xiao-Ru Wang; Åke Brännström; Tanja Slotte; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; distribution of fitness effects; site frequency spectra; missing data filtering; downsampling; imputation; sample size; population structure; inbreeding; selfing; homozygosity; Arabidopsis; Pinus; DFE-alpha; SLiM; population genomics; adaptation; biology; biologi; evolutionär genetik; evolutionary genetics; populationsbiologi; Population Biology; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology; Genetics; genetik;

    Sammanfattning : The distribution of fitness effects (DFE) describes the likelihood that a new mutation has a specific effect on the fitness of an individual in a given population. The shape of the DFE is a result of several factors such as population size, mating system and selective environment, and can in turn influence the evolutionary potential of a species. LÄS MER
