  1. 1. Non-canonical ATG8 conjugation in ESCRT-driven membrane remodeling processes

    Författare :Anastasia Knyazeva; Yao-Wen Wu; Richard Lundmark; Sascha Martens; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ATG8 conjugation; Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for Transport; membrane remodeling; chemical genetics;

    Sammanfattning : ATG8 family proteins have the unique ability to conjugate to membrane lipids. Initially identified as a hallmark of autophagy, ATG8 lipidation is emerging as an important regulator of a growing list of non-degradative cellular functions. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Characterizing important flavivirus-host interactions : Replication, assembly, restriction factors and vaccine development

    Författare :Pham Tue Hung Tran; Magnus Johansson; Wessam Melik; Naveed Asghar; Sören Andersson; Laurent Chatel-Chaix; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Flaviviruses; virus-host cell interaction; lunapark; ESCRT; ALIX; CHMP4A; ISG15; TRIMs; replicon virus-like particles; vaccine;

    Sammanfattning : The genus Flavivirus (family Flaviviridae) consists of important zoonotic viruses that cause morbidity and mortality worldwide. These viruses are enveloped and have a positive-sense single-stranded RNA genome encoding a polyprotein. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Divisive structures : Two billions years of biofilament evolution

    Författare :Fredrik Hurtig; Ann-Christin Lindås; Lionel Guy; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Evolution; Archaea; Eukaryogenesis; ESCRT-III; Actin; Profilin; Gelsolin; Asgard; TACK; Sulfolobus; Cell division; Cytokinesis; Cytoskeleton; Heimdallarchaeota; Actin-binding protein; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Sammanfattning : Our understanding of the functional and regulatory complexity that existed in the eukaryotic progenitor is poor, and investigations have been hindered by our nebulous understanding of where eukaryotes stem from. Recently discovered archaeal lineages with hitherto unseen homology to eukaryotic systems suggest archaea can further our understanding of the eukaryotic cell’s ancestry. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Unique Solutions to Universal Problems : Studies of the Archaeal Cell

    Författare :Erik A. Pelve; Rolf Bernander; Sonja Verena Albers; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Archaea; Cdv; Cell cycle; Cell division; Cell lysis; Crenarchaea; ESCRT-III; Flow cytometry; Microarray; Microscopy; Nitrosopumilus; SIRV2; Sulfolobus; Thaumarchaea; Transcription; VAP; Virus; Biology with specialization in Molecular Evolution; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär evolution;

    Sammanfattning : Archaea is one of the three domains of life and studies of archaeal biology are important for understanding of life in extreme environments, fundamental biogeochemical processes, the origin of life, the eukaryotic cell and their own, unique biology. This thesis presents four studies of the archaeal cell, using the extremophilic Sulfolobus and ocean living Nitrosopumilus as model systems. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The release of histone proteins from cells via extracellular vesicles

    Författare :Uma Muthukrishnan; Jonathan Gilthorpe; Miles Trupp; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Histone; extracellular vesicles; exosomes; extracellular histones extracellular DNA; cellular stress; proteomics; ESCRT complex; Lrrn1; mid-hindbrain organizer; ovarian cancer; ascites;

    Sammanfattning : Histones are chromatin-associated proteins localized to the nucleus. However, extracellular histones are present in biofluids from healthy individuals and become elevated under disease conditions, such as neurodegeneration and cancer. LÄS MER
