  1. 1. Network and gene expression analyses for understanding protein function

    Författare :Oliver Frings; Erik Sonnhammer; Rune Linding; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biological networks; network inference; network analysis; clustering; network module; network crosstalk; expression analysis; gene signature; biomarker; biokemi; inriktning teoretisk kemi; Biochemistry with Emphasis on Theoretical Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Biological function is the result of a complex network of functional associations between genes or their products. Modeling the dynamics underlying biological networks is one of the big challenges in bioinformatics. LÄS MER

  2. 2. A genomic approach to smooth muscle differentiation and diversity

    Författare :Sven Nelander; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Keywords: smooth muscle; phenotype; transcriptional regulation; differentiation; transcriptome; microarray; computational prediction; co-expression network; regulatory sequence analysis; gene module; gene battery;

    Sammanfattning : Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are a broad class of contractile cells that are found in a number of organs systems, including the vasculature, the urogenital system, the bronchi and the gastrointestinal tract. The two main functions exerted by SMCs are to provide contractile force and to synthesize structural components of the extracellular matrix. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Methylome and Transcriptome Profiling of Hepatocytes Derived from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells

    Författare :Nidal Ghosheh; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; human pluripotent stem cells; gene transcription; gene regulation; DNA methylation; transcriptome; hepatocytes;

    Sammanfattning : Six hundred million people suffering from liver diseases worldwide of which the lethality is two million. Freshly isolated hepatocytes from the liver have been used for transplantation purposes and are extensively used to recapitulate drug metabolism. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Gene networks and modules in atherosclerosis

    Författare :Jesper Lundström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis we are using global gene expression profiles to unravel functional gene networks and modules. The focus is atherosclerosis, a disease with manifestations in the artery wall where deposits of lipids accumulate and trigger immune responses causing the development of plaques, which upon rupture can lead to a myocardial infarction or stroke.

  5. 5. Studies of the chromatin form of yeast Mediator and the function of its tail module

    Författare :Miriam Nilsson; Stefan Björklund; Claes Gustafsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Mediator complex; Transcriptional regulation; yeast; tail module; transcription; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Mediator is a large, multifunctional complex that is conserved in eukaryotes. It was first discovered in Saccharomyces cerevisiaeas required for transcriptional activators to function in a reconstituted in vitro system. Mediator is also important for stimulation of basal, unregulated transcription, and transcriptional repression. LÄS MER
