  1. 11. The mitoribosome as a hub for integrating mitochondrial gene expression : Regulation of translation and early assembly of cytochrome b

    Författare :Andreas Carlström; Martin Ott; Chris Meisinger; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mitochondria; gene expression; mitochondrial ribosome; translation regulation; feedback loop; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    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

  2. 12. Mitochondrial dysfunction and treatment strategies

    Författare :Shuba Krishnan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    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

  3. 13. Mitochondrial and chromosomal genomics in type 2 diabetes

    Författare :Avinash Abhyankar; Genetik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adaptive evolution; nuclear-mitochondrial interaction; linkage analysis; QTL; phylogenetic analysis; congenic; type 2 diabetes; GK rat;

    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

  4. 14. Genes involved in Parkinson's disease : focus on mitochondrial and detoxifying enzymes

    Författare :Anna Anvret; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    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

  5. 15. A new perspective on avian phylogeny - a study based on mitochondrial genomes

    Författare :Anna Bartosch-Härlid; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Genetics; thyroid; neoteni; mitochondrial DNA; phylogeny; Class Aves; Palaeognathae; cytogenetics; Genetik; cytogenetik;

    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
