1. Genome-Wide Studies of Transcriptional Regulation in Human Liver Cells by High-throughput Sequencing
Sammanfattning : The human genome contains slightly more than 20 000 genes that are expressed in a tissue specific manner. Transcription factors play a key role in gene regulation. By mapping the transcription factor binding sites genome-wide we can understand their role in different biological processes. LÄS MER
2. Membrane protein topology : prediction, experimental mapping and genome-wide analysis
Sammanfattning : Membrane proteins constitute a large and important class of proteins. They are responsible for many crucial processes in living cells, and about 25% of all proteins encoded by a typical genome are predicted to be membrane proteins. Despite their importance, very few structures have been determined at atomic resolution. LÄS MER
3. Population level genome-wide association studies in dairy cattle
Sammanfattning : In recent years, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) has become a dominant tool for detecting genetic architectures for complex traits. Thousands of associated genetic variants have been reported. However, the resolution of these studies was limited by the available marker density for the quantitative trait loci (QTL) region. LÄS MER
4. Mapping genetic diseases in northern Sweden
Sammanfattning : The population of northern Sweden has previously been shown to be well suited for the mapping of monogenic diseases. In this thesis we have tested the hypothesis that this population could also be used for efficient identification of risk genes for common diseases. LÄS MER
5. Genome-wide epigenetic profiling of B cell leukemia and lymphoma
Sammanfattning : Epigenetic modifications, at the level of DNA methylation and post-translational modifications of histone tails cooperatively function in the organization of the genome, and thereby establish the gene expression profiles, phenotypes, and cellular fates. In this work, we investigated the aberrant epigenome in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) which is one of the most frequent lymphoid malignancies in the west including the Nordic countries. LÄS MER
