1. Network and gene expression analyses for understanding protein function
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. A genomic approach to smooth muscle differentiation and diversity
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. Methylome and Transcriptome Profiling of Hepatocytes Derived from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells
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. Gene networks and modules in atherosclerosis
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. Studies of the chromatin form of yeast Mediator and the function of its tail module
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
