1. From Sequence to Sorting : Prediction of Signal Peptides
Sammanfattning : In the present age of genome sequencing, a vast number of predicted genes are initially known only by their putative nucleotide sequence. The newly established field of bioinformatics is concerned with the computational prediction of structural and functional properties of genes and the proteins they encode, based on their nucleotide and amino acid sequences.

2. Wnt-5a signaling in breast cancer metastasis
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common form of malignancy affecting women in the Western world. Today, anticancer treatment can control primary breast tumors, but treatment and prevention of metastatic disease still represents a major challenge in the management of breast cancer patients.

3. On inflammatory cytokines and β-amyloid peptides in acute and chronic neurodegeneration
Sammanfattning : Insults to the brain as well as neurodegenerative diseases are known to elicit inflammatory responses. Inflammation in the brain can on one hand initiate processes that are harmful to the injured tissue and exacerbate the damage, leading to neuronal degeneration and glial activation, and on the other hand activate processes that may be necessary for repair mechanisms and regeneration.

4. Predicting transmembrane topology and signal peptides with hidden Markov models
Sammanfattning : Transmembrane proteins make up a large and important class of proteins. About 20% of all genes encode transmembrane proteins. They control both substances and information going in and out of a cell. LÄS MER
