21. Regulation of Drosophila Jun by phosphorylation and the ubiquitin system during eye development
Sammanfattning : The goal of these studies has been to elucidate the biological relevance of post-translational modifications in the context of a living organism. The model system used is photoreceptor differentiation during development of the compound eye in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. LÄS MER
22. Chromosome-wide gene regulatory mechanisms in Drosophila melanogaster
Sammanfattning : In Drosophila there are two different chromosome-wide targeting systems, the dosage compensation system that equalizes the transcriptional output from X-linked genes between males and females, and the regulation of the 4th chromosome mediated by the POF protein. The best studied of these two mechanisms is the dosage compensation system. LÄS MER
23. Aneuploidy compensatory mechanisms and genome-wide regulation of gene expression in Drosophila melanogaster
Sammanfattning : Stimulation or repression of gene expression by genome-wide regulatory mechanisms is an important epigenetic regulatory function which can act to efficiently regulate larger regions or specific groups of genes, for example by compensating for loss or gain of chromosome copy numbers. In Drosophila melanogaster there are two known chromosome-wide regulatory systems; the MSL complex, which mediates dosage compensation of the single male X-chromosome and POF, which stimulates expression from the heterochromatic 4th chromosome.

24. Mitotic aberrations in mammalian cells
Sammanfattning : Almost all cancer cells are aneuploid showing the wrong chromosome number and often with structural aberrations. The degree of aneuploidy correlates with an increase of the severity of the disease and tumour cells with chromosomal instability are more prone to acquire resistance to chemotherapy than other cells. LÄS MER
25. Polymorphism in pattern recognition receptor genes in pigs
Sammanfattning : The mammalian immune defense consists of two systems, which are interconnected and co-operate to provide host defense. The innate immune system is always active and detects and responds to non-self without delay. The adaptive immune system has a lag phase, but is more specific and has got a memory. LÄS MER
