11. The mitoribosome as a hub for integrating mitochondrial gene expression : Regulation of translation and early assembly of cytochrome b
Sammanfattning : The mitochondrial proteome is a mosaic of proteins from two different genetic systems. The majority of mitochondrial proteins are encoded in the nuclear genome and are synthesized in the cytosol before imported to mitochondria. LÄS MER
12. Mitochondrial dysfunction and treatment strategies
Sammanfattning : The mitochondria are essential for cellular energy production and are involved in many processes in the cells. The mitochondria contain their own DNA (mtDNA) that is vital for oxidative phosphorylation since it encodes enzymes of the respiratory chain. LÄS MER
13. Mitochondrial and chromosomal genomics in type 2 diabetes
Sammanfattning : Understanding the mechanisms of complex polygenic diseases like type 2 diabetes (T2D) is as complex as their nature. Cellular processes involved in glucose homeostasis need high and reliable energy supply. Mitochondria are the major energy producers in mammalian cells. LÄS MER
14. Genes involved in Parkinson's disease : focus on mitochondrial and detoxifying enzymes
Sammanfattning : Parkinson's disease is a common progressive neurodegenerative disorder which mostly affects the elderly population, with a prevalence of more than 1.5% in the population over the age of 65 years. Clinical motor symptoms are mainly caused by degeneration of dopamine neurons in substantia nigra pars compacta. LÄS MER
15. A new perspective on avian phylogeny - a study based on mitochondrial genomes
Sammanfattning : The Class Aves (birds) is generally divided into two main groups - the Palaeognathae and the Neognathae. Paleognathous birds are the flightless ratites and the tinamous, while Neognathae include all other extant birds (more than 9,000 species). LÄS MER
