  1. 1. Bioinformatic Methods in Metagenomics

    Författare :Johannes Alneberg; Anders F. Andersson; Lars Arvestad; Nicola Segata; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bioinformatics; Metagenomics; Microbiome; Binning; Baltic Sea; Bioinformatik; Metagenomik; Mikrobiom; Binning; Östersjön;

    Sammanfattning : Microbial organisms are a vital part of our global ecosystem. Yet, our knowledge of them is still lacking. Direct sequencing of microbial communities, i.e. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Evolutionary genomics of host-microbe interactions

    Författare :Elin Videvall; MEMEG; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; host; microbiota; avian malaria; ostrich; parasite; dual RNA-seq;

    Sammanfattning : The microbes living inside hosts have highly important consequences for host health and fitness. From the host’s perspective, some microbes exhibit mutualistic tendencies, others parasitic, and some commensal, but this is context-dependent and opportunistic lifestyles are widespread in nature.

  4. 3. Bio-based recovery of organic carbon from municipal waste streams : Process optimization and microbial community dynamics

    Författare :Isaac Owusu-Agyeman; Zeynep Cetecioglu; Elzbieta Plaza; Piet Lens; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Resource recovery from waste contributes to the transition to a sustainable society. Municipal organic wastes have enormous potential for resource recovery due to the inherent organic content which makes it possible to obtain bio-based chemicals and bioenergy. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Towards spatial host-microbiome profiling

    Författare :Britta Lötstedt; Joakim Lundeberg; Petri Auvinen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 16S sequencing; RNA sequencing; spatially resolved transcriptomics; antibody-based measurements; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Sammanfattning : Sequencing technologies and applications have pushed the limits and enabled novel studies of biological mechanisms, evolutionary relationships and communication networks between cells. The technical developments leading to single cell RNA-sequencing have enabled detection of rare cell populations while spatial resolution added insights into larger biological environments, like tissues and organs.

  7. 5. Roles of secreted bacterial factors in modulation of host cell signalling

    Författare :Eric Toh; Sun Nyunt Wai; Teresa Frisan; Staffan Bohm; Ann-Beth Jonsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bacteria-host interaction; motility-associated killing factor A; outer membrane vesicles; cytolysin A; phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase alpha; enhancer of zeste homologue 2; epigenetic modulation; Medical Cell Biology; medicinsk cellbiologi; mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

    Sammanfattning : Pathogenic bacteria employ several secretion systems to release or inject virulence factors that may alter host cell processes, generate a replicative niche, and aid bacterial survival in adverse environments. This thesis presents my investigations on how bacterial factors can modulate host cell signalling mechanisms. LÄS MER
