1. 1. Construction and Evaluation of a Cre-lox-Based Fluorescent Conjugation Tracking System

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

   Author : Carl Brännström; [2022]
   Keywords : Antibiotic resistance; horizontal gene transfer; plasmids; conjugation; conjugational frequency; Cre loxP system;

   Abstract : Plasmids are small, circular, extrachromosomal double-stranded genetic elements present in bacteria. Plasmids can replicate independently of the bacterial chromosome and play an important role as a transmitter of antibiotic resistance genes between bacteria. READ MORE

3. 2. Construction and evaluation of a bacterial fluorescent conjugation tracking system

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

   Author : Otto Lindahl; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Plasmids are small, circular, extrachromosomal genetic elements that replicate independently of the bacterial chromosome. Plasmids play a crucial role in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes through conjugation. READ MORE

4. 3. Optimization of PCR protocols used for genotyping transgenic mice & Evaluation of a method for co-detecting mRNA and protein

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Jämförande fysiologi

   Author : Amanda Isaksson; [2017]
   Keywords : Ventral tegmental area; Substantia nigra; Parkinson’s disease; transgenic mice; Cre-Lox recombination;

   Abstract : The aim of the current study was divided into two separate goals, (i) optimization of a number of PCR-based protocols employed for genotyping transgenic mouse lines and (ii) evaluating a protocol for co-detection of mRNA and its correlated protein in the mouse midbrain. The optimization was performed on PCR protocols for genotyping the following transgenic mouse lines; Dat-Cre, Vglut2-Lox, Vglut2-Cre and Vmat2-Lox. READ MORE
