  1. 1. Key Sentence Extraction From CRISPR-Cas9 Articles Using Sentence Transformers

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

    Author : Sandra Henningsson; Brage Stranden Lae; [2023-11-09]
    Keywords : NLP; Transformers; CRISPR; semantic search; keyphrase extraction;

    Abstract : The annotation of CRISPR-related articles and extraction of key content has traditionally relied on manual efforts. Manual annotation is error-prone and timeconsuming. This thesis presents an alternative approach using transfer learning and pre-trained models based on the Transformer architecture. READ MORE

  3. 2. CRISPR Screen to Identify Genes Regulating Melanoma Cell Invasiveness

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Emma Kroon; [2023]
    Keywords : CRISPR-Cas9; gene knockout; viral packaging; transduction; invasionstest; CRISPR-Cas9; genknockout; viruspackning; transduction; invasion assay;

    Abstract : Maligna cancerceller har förmågan att sprida sig okontrollerat i kroppen och metastasera till avlägsna organ. Kritiskt i metastaserings processen är cancercellers förmåga att invadera närliggande vävnader innan de sprider sig vidare ut i kroppen. READ MORE

  4. 3. Gene expression editing in myeloma cell lines using CRISPR/Cas9 technique

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Author : Wilma Wadman; [2023]
    Keywords : BMPR1A; BMPR2; bone morphogenetic protein; gene knockout; multiple myeloma;

    Abstract : Multiple myeloma, or myeloma, is a bone marrow cancer which characterizes by uncontrolled proliferation of mutant plasma cells. It is a disease that claims many lives every year, mostly due to the absence of curative treatment. Finding a suitable treatment is therefor of great importance. READ MORE

  5. 4. Establishing novel approaches for assessing safety of genome-editing-based therapeutics

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Noorul Shaheen Sheikh Farid; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Genome editing based medicines are a new therapeutic modality being developed. They show great promise for a spectrum of genetic diseases lacking conventional treatment strategies. A major obstacle that prevents such therapies to reach the clinic is their safety. READ MORE

  6. 5. Avelsarbetets roll i kampen mot antibiotikaresistenta bakterier : hur kan avel och genredigering reducera behovet av antibiotikatill produktionsdjur?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Author : Ebba Gustafsson; [2023]
    Keywords : antibiotikaresistens; avel; husdjur; selektion; bakteriell infektion; infektionsresistens; infektionstolerans; genredigering; genetisk markör; genom; CRISPR;

    Abstract : Antibiotikaresistenta bakterier utgör ett globalt hot för både sjukvård och livsmedelsproduktion då de begränsar möjligheten att behandla bakterieinfektioner hos både människor och djur. Förekomsten av resistenta bakterier växer globalt till följd av överflödig och felaktig användning av antibiotikapreparat. READ MORE
