  1. 1. Functional characterization of the alternative reading frame protein p14ARF

    Författare :Mikael Lindström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :p14ARF; p19ARF; alternative reading frame; CDKN2A; p53; B23; nucleophosmin; Burkitt´s lymphoma; nucleolus; senescence; Myc; E2F; phosphorylation; RNA interference; ribosome biogenesis;

    Sammanfattning : A deeper understanding of the molecular events underlying tumor development is a prerequisite for the design of novel and efficient therapies. Inactivation of the p53 and retinoblastoma (Rb) tumor suppressor pathways appears as a common theme in most malignant human tumors. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Evolutionary and functional studies of protein H: a surface molecule of Streptococcus pyogenes

    Författare :Inga-Maria Frick; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intracellular transportation; adhesion; aggregation; FNIII domain; albumin-binding; M-like protein; convergent evolution; protein G; Streptococcus pyogenes; IgG-binding; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Several bacterial species express surface proteins with affinity for the Fc part of human IgG. This thesis describes evolutionary and functional studies of protein H, an IgGFc-binding surface protein of the human pathogen Streptococcus pyogenes. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Mechanistic Implications and Characterization of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) mutations in Neuroblastoma

    Författare :Damini Chand; Bengt Hallberg; Christer Larsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neuroblastoma; ALK; crizotinib; receptor tyrosine kinase; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that was first reported as a fusion partner of nucleophosmin in Anaplastic large cell lymphoma in 1994. ALK is involved in myriad of cancers including neuroblastoma which is the most common extracranial solid tumor affecting young children. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Studies of penta-decameric binding proteins: AP-4 and CBF-A

    Författare :Alaitz Aranburu; Immunologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biochemistry; transplantation; Metabolism; serologi; metabolism; Biokemi; serology; Immunology; hnRNP H; NPM; CBF-A; AP-4; transcription; B cells; immunoglobulin; Immunologi;

    Sammanfattning : Each immunoglobulin (Ig) V gene segment contains an upstream promoter region. The octamer element and the TATA box are the only elements that are conserved in all Ig promoters. The presence of the octamer element is necessary, but not sufficient to support high levels of transcription. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase mutations and downstream signalling

    Författare :Christina Schönherr; Ruth H Palmer; Aristidis Moustakas; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase; oncogene; RTK; neuroblastoma; crizotinib; NVP-TAE684; gain-of-function; MYCN; transcription factor; small GTPase; Rap1; C3G; PC12 cells; neurite outgrowth; molecular cell biology; molekylär cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The oncogene Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) is a Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) and was initially discovered as the fusion protein NPM (nucleophosmin)-ALK in a subset of Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphomas (ALCL). Since then more fusion proteins have been identified in a variety of cancers. LÄS MER
