  1. 36. Genome characterisation and mobility investigation in trypanosomes

    Författare :Carole Branche; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Trypanosoma brucei - Trypanosoma cruzi - karyotype - genome organisation -flageflum mobility - RNAi - functional studies.;

    Sammanfattning : Trypanosomes are uni-flagellated protozoa responsible for some of the most debilitating human infections such as Chagas disease (Trypanosoma cruzi) and sleeping sickness (Trypanosoma brucei). Unravelling their genome organisation and their biology would improve our basic knowledge and could contribute to find new drug target specific to the species. LÄS MER

  2. 37. Meiotic Recombination in Human and Dog : Targets, Consequences and Implications for Genome Evolution

    Författare :Jonas Berglund; Matthew Webster; Kerstin Lindblad-Toh; Leif Andersson; Nadia Singh; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; recombination; biased gene conversion; CpG island; copy number variation; substitutions; methylation; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik; Biology with specialization in Evolutionary Genetics; Biologi med inriktning mot evolutionär genetik; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär evolution; Biology with specialization in Molecular Evolution; Molekylär genetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding the mechanism of recombination has important implications for genome evolution and genomic variability. The work presented in this thesis studies the properties of recombination by investigating the effects it has on genome evolution in humans and dogs. LÄS MER

  3. 38. Genome Evolution in Maternally Inherited Insect Endosymbionts

    Författare :Lisa Klasson; Siv Andersson; Jonas Sandström; George Weinstock; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Sammanfattning : Symbiosis is a widely common phenomenon in nature and has undoubtedly contributed to the evolution of all organisms on earth. Symbiotic associations can be of varying character, such as parasitic or mutualistic, but all imply a close relationship. LÄS MER

  4. 39. DNA Sequence Variants in Human Autoimmune Diseases

    Författare :Chuan Wang; Ann-Christine Syvänen; Anna Lobell; Jeffrey C. Barrett; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Association study; Gene resequencing; ChIP-seq; Type I interferon system; Systemic lupus erythematosus; Rheumatoid arthritis; Asthma; Medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics; Molekylär genetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Human autoimmune diseases are hallmarked by inappropriate loss-of-tolerance and self-attacking response of the immune system. Studies included in this thesis are focusing on the implication and functional impact of genetic factors in three autoimmune diseases rheumatoid arthritis (RA), asthma, and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

  5. 40. Influenza A Virus : Spatial analysis of influenza genome trafficking and the evolution of the neuraminidase protein

    Författare :Dan Dou; Robert Daniels; Martin Schwemmle; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Influenza A virus; IAV; neuraminidase; NA; IAV genome trafficking; viral entry; viral replication; co-infection; antigenic drift; antigenic shift; NA assembly; transmembrane domain; evolution; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Influenza A viruses (IAVs) are a common infectious agent that seasonally circulates within the human population that causes mild to severe acute respiratory infections. The severity of the infection is often related to how the virus has evolved with respect to the pre-existing immunity in the population. LÄS MER
