  1. 16. Role of mitochondrial ribosomal protein S18-2 in cancerogenesis and in regulation of stemness and differentiation

    Författare :Muhammad Mushtaq; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Mitochondria carry their own ribosomes (mitoribosomes) for the translation of mRNA encoded by mitochondrial DNA. The architecture of mitoribosomes is mainly composed of mitochondrial ribosomal proteins (MRPs), which are encoded by nuclear genomic DNA. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Disentangling the Reticulate History of Polyploids in Silene (Caryophyllaceae)

    Författare :Magnus Popp; Bengt Oxelman; Magnus Lidén; Jeff J. Doyle; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; Silene; Sileneae; polyploidy; low copy nuclear DNA; RNA polymerase; RPA2; RPB2; RPD2; internal transcribed spacer; rps16; psbE-petL; concerted evolution; reticulate evolution; lineage sorting; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Sammanfattning : DNA sequences from the rps16 intron and the psbE-petL spacer from the chloroplast genome, the ribosomal nuclear ITS region, and introns from the low copy nuclear genes RPA2, RPB2, RPD2a and RPD2b, are in different combinations used to infer phylogenetic relationships in Sileneae (Caryophyllaceae). Used in concert, the biparentally inherited nuclear regions are useful to distinguish between paralogy due to allopolyploidy and single gene duplications, respectively, because the latter are not expected to give rise to repeated phylogenetic patterns in potentially unlinked sequence regions.

  3. 18. Biochemical analysis of Pfh1, the essential Pif1 family helicase in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

    Författare :Jani B. Mohammad; Nasim Sabouri; Erik Johansson; Per Elias; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; G4; Pfh1; Genome integrity; helicase; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : DNA stores the genetic information of all living organisms, and this information needs to be copied accurately and passed on to each daughter cell when a cell divides. However, the DNA replication machinery often meets obstacles in the genome that cause fork pausing and might result in DNA damage. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Phylogenies and Secondary Chemistry in Arnica (Asteraceae)

    Författare :Catarina Ekenäs; Katarina Andreasen; Anders Backlund; Lynn Bohs; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Biology; phylogeny; ITS; ETS; RPB2; sesquiterpene lactones; PCA; bioassay; NF-κB; neutrophil; chloroplast; Biologi; Arnica; Asteraceae;

    Sammanfattning : The genus Arnica (Asteraceae) was investigated for phylogenetic relationships and sesquiterpene lactone (STL) content with the aims to trace the evolutionary history of the genus and to investigate possible congruencies between DNA sequence data, secondary chemistry, and biological activity. Complex evolutionary patterns in Arnica are evident from phylogenetic analyses of chloroplast regions (the rpl16 and rps16 introns and the psbA–trnH, ycf4–cemA, and trnT–L spacers), nuclear ribosomal regions (the internal and external transcribed spacers) and the nuclear low-copy DNA region coding for the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (RPB2) between exons 17 and 23.

  5. 20. Functional and structural characterization of the human mitochondrial helicase

    Författare :Jenny Korhonen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Mitochondria; mtDNA; replication; replisome; TWINKLE; mtSSB; POL g ; adPEO.;

    Sammanfattning : Mitochondria are the energy producing organelles of the eukaryotic cell. The human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is a double stranded circular molecule of about 16 kb, usually present at 1000-10 000 copies per cell. The genome encodes 13 polypeptides involved in respiration, two ribosomal RNA s and a set of 22 transfer RNA s. LÄS MER
