1. The relationship between orthology, protein domain architecture and protein function
Sammanfattning : Lacking experimental data, protein function is often predicted from evolutionary and protein structure theory. Under the 'domain grammar' hypothesis the function of a protein follows from the domains it encodes. LÄS MER
2. 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
3. Inference of functional association networks and gene orthology
Sammanfattning : Most proteomics and genomics experiments are performed on a small set of well-studied model organisms and their results are generalized to other species. This is possible because all species are evolutionarily related. When transferring information across species, orthologs are the most likely candidates for functional equivalence. LÄS MER
4. Novel resources enabling comparative regulomics in forest tree species
Sammanfattning : Lignocellulosic plants are the most abundant source of terrestrial biomass and are one of the potential sources of renewable energy that can replace the use of fossil fuels. For a country such as Sweden, where the forest industry accounts for 10% of the total export, there would be large economical benefits associated with increased biomass yield. LÄS MER
5. Orthology and protein domain architecture evolution
Sammanfattning : A major factor behind protein evolution is the ability of proteins to evolve new domain architectures that encode new functions. Protein domains are widely considered to constitute the "atoms" of protein chains, acting as building blocks of proteins as well as evolutionary units. LÄS MER
