  3. 2. Regulatory Driven Clustering of Single-Cell Data; Clustering of single-cell RNA sequencing from glioblastoma with a novel mathematical method

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för matematiska vetenskaper

    Author : Kári Kristjánsson; [2023-08-08]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. Single-cell RNA sequencing has arisen as an important method to explore the gene expression of biological cells, including cancer cells. In this study, we deployed a computational algorithm known as ScRegClust to dissect single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from brain tumors. READ MORE

  5. 4. Methodological development of human telomere sequencing with the Oxford Nanopore Technologies

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för hälsovetenskaper

    Author : Jennifer Arnqvist; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Human DNA is protected with telomeres, which consist of the repetitive DNA-sequence TTAGGG. A 3’-overhang folds back and in combination with the shelterin complex protects the ends of the DNA. READ MORE

  6. 5. Characterization of Mitilysin Pores by Cryo-electron Microscopy

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Vladimir Novakovic; [2023]
    Keywords : Mitilysin; Mly; Structural Biology; Cryo-EM; pore; toxin; pore forming proteins; pore forming toxins; PFP; PFT;

    Abstract : Pore forming toxins (PFTs) are a large group of proteins found mainly in bacteria with some exceptions found in animals. They bind and form pores in their target membranes and form pores, which leads to cell death. Among these are cholesterol-dependent cytolysins (CDC), which require the presence of cholesterol to bind target membranes. READ MORE
