  1. 1. Quantification of DNA Nanoballs Using Image Processing Techniques

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen Vi3

    Author : Sara Lindberg; [2023]
    Keywords : image analysis; fluorescence microscopy; quantification; DNA; rolling circle amplification; machine learning; deep learning; transfer learning; neural networks;

    Abstract : In gene editing, it is important to identify the number of edited and unedited nucleic acids in the development of new therapies and drugs. Countagen is developing a technology for accelerating genomic research and their product is called GeneAbacus. READ MORE

  3. 2. Developing a reproducible bioinformatics workflow for canine inherited retinal disease

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Melina Toni Marie Martin; [2023]
    Keywords : CanFam4; Nextflow; Inherited Retinal Degeneration; dog; whole-genome sequencing; bioinformatics;

    Abstract : Inherited Retinal Degenerations (IRDs) are a heterogenous group of diseases which lead to vision impairment and can be found both in humans and in dogs. About 1 in 1,380 humans is estimated to suffer from an autosomal recessive IRD, which would be 5.5 million people worldwide, and many more are estimated to be unaffected carriers. READ MORE

  4. 3. Phylogenomics of Ascetosporea

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Systematisk biologi; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Harshal Kunal Bhawe; [2022]
    Keywords : phylogenetics; ascetosporea; bioinformatics; mussel;

    Abstract : Ascetosporea is a class of poorly studied unicellular eukaryotes that function as parasites of marine invertebrates. These parasites cause mass mortality events in aquaculture species such as oysters and mussels. READ MORE

  5. 4. Review and Analysis of single-cell RNA sequencing cell-type identification and annotation tools

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Corentin Raoux; [2021]
    Keywords : Single-cell RNA sequencing; Automatic cell types annotation; Classification; Benchmark; Evaluation; Encells-RNA-sekvensering; Automatisk annotering av celltyper; Klassificering; Riktmärke; Värdering;

    Abstract : Single-cell RNA-sequencing makes possible to study the gene expression at the level of individual cells. However, one of the main challenges of the single-cell RNA-sequencing analysis today, is the identification and annotation of cell types. READ MORE

  6. 5. Sex and tissue specific DNA methylation patterns in the house sparrow (Passer domesticus)

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Yuming Shi; [2021]
    Keywords : DNA methylation; tissue-specific pattern; sex-specific pattern; house sparrow;

    Abstract : DNA methylation patterns are sex and tissue specific in many species, yet many studies useblood samples, due to its accessibility, to establish links between the DNA methylation anddifferent phenotypes. This raises the question of whether DNA methylation in blood samplesreflect the DNA methylation pattern in other tissues that are more relevant to the phenotypebeing studied. READ MORE
