31. The function of Smc5/6 in Drosophila development and at the heterochromatin-like locus HMR in budding yeast
Sammanfattning : The structural maintenance of chromosome 5/6 (Smc5/6) complex is one out of many factors in the cell that maintain genome stability. Smc5/6 has been implicated in processes such as DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair, replication progression, and chromosome segregation. LÄS MER
32. The puzzling Smc5/6 complex : piecing together functions in segregation and repair
Sammanfattning : Genome stability is essential in order for cells to survive. During their life cycle, parental cells must divide and properly allocate their genetic material to daughter cells. To ensure correct distribution, multiple proteins are involved in replicating and segregating the genome. LÄS MER
33. Thermodynamics of Peptide Nucleic Acid Interactions with DNA
Sammanfattning : Peptide Nucleic Acid (PNA) is a DNA mimic with the natural nucleobases attached to a charge-neutral pseudopeptide backbone. It has remarkably strong and sequence-specific binding affinity to natural nucleic acids (DNA and RNA), mainly attributed to the lack of charge in the PNA backbone. LÄS MER
34. Biology of a small RNA virus that infects Drosophila melanogaster
Sammanfattning : Drosophila melanogaster has been extensively used as a model organism to study diverse facets of biology, including host-pathogen interactions and the basic biology of its pathogens. I have used the fruit fly as a model to study elementary aspects of Nora virus biology, such as the role of the different proteins encoded by the virus genome. LÄS MER
35. Comparative genomics and molecular characterization of N-alpha acetyltransferase in trypanosomes for drug target identification
Sammanfattning : Trypanosoma cruzi and Trypanosoma brucei are flagellated protozoan parasites that cause Chagas disease and African trypanosomiasis in Latin American and African countries, respectively. Currently, over 8 million people are infected with T. cruzi and about 25 million more are at risk. About half a million people are affected by T. LÄS MER
