7. Search for MODY and Type 2 diabetes genes
Sammanfattning : Diabetes is a heterogeneous disease influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is considered as a subform of Type 2 diabetes, which is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion and expressed at childhood or early adult life. LÄS MER
8. Phylogeny of Artiodactyla and Cetacea - based on mitochondrial genomes
Sammanfattning : Artiodactyla (eved-toed ungulates) and Cetacea (whales) are two mammalian orders that are commonly recognised as sistergroups. Recently it has been suggested that Cetacea originated within Artiodactyla, but the relationships among the different artiodactyl lineages and Cetacea have not been conclusively established. LÄS MER
9. Mitochondrial plasmids, genetic conflicts and sex-determination in Silene vulgaris
Sammanfattning : Plants like all other eukaryotic organisms carry most of their DNA in the nucleus. In addition, plants also have both chloroplasts and mitochondria that contain their own genetic material. The genomes in chloroplasts and mitochondria control certain vital processes, but most often the organelles act under strict nuclear control. LÄS MER
10. Metabolic disorders : genes and mechanisms
Sammanfattning : Mitochondrial disorders constitute a subgroup of the large family of rare monogenic diseases called Inborn Errors of Metabolism (IEM), but defects in mitochondrial activity have also been reported in more common and complex pathologies. In the present thesis, I validate new disease-causing variants and study the underlying molecular defects in three different cases of IEM. LÄS MER
