  1. 36. A comparative validation of the human variant simulator SIMdrom

    University essay from

    Author : Sofia Ånäs; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The past decade’s progress in next generation sequencing has drastically decreased the price of whole genome and exome sequencing, making it available as a clinical tool for diagnosing patients with genetic disease. However, finding a disease-causing mutation among millions of non-pathogenic variants in a patient’s genome, is not an easy task. READ MORE

  3. 37. The genetics of glioma : and the use of dogs as model for human glioma

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

    Author : Vanja Börjesson; [2016]
    Keywords : c-MET; canine; gene therapy; genome wide association studies GWAS ; next generation sequencing NGS ; glioma;

    Abstract : Glioma is the most common type of primary brain tumor in humans, and the second most common in canines. This tumor type originates from glial cells in the brain and is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in genes regulating important cellular functions. The current diagnosis of glioma is based on histopathological evaluations and gradings. READ MORE

  4. 38. Methods for Finding Structural Variations in DNA Barcodes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Johannes Isaksson; [2016]
    Keywords : DNA; barcodes; computational; biology; genome; antibiotics; plasmids; structural; variations; genes; mutation; sequencing; resistance; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Rapid spread of antibiotic resistance is currently one of the greatest threats to human health according to the World Health Organization [1] [2]. It is directly connected to horizontal gene transfer of plasmids, wherein resistance-coding genes often appear as structural variations (SVs). READ MORE

  5. 39. Genetic characterization of canine respiratory coronavirus

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Simon Larsson; [2015]

    Abstract : Kennelhosta är ett samlingsnamn för en grupp virus- och bakterieinfektioner som ofta drabbar hundar som är tillsammans med större grupper av andra hundar. Symptomen är oftast milda, vanligtvis med en torr, hackande hosta, men kan i vissa fall ta sig uttryck som svårare symptom som lunginflammation. READ MORE

  6. 40. Prevalence and Identification of Lactobacillus Species Isolated from Infected Root Canals by MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry, 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing and API 50 CHL

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Tandläkarutbildning

    Author : Billie Sjöholm; Babak Bahrami; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Lactobacillus, a part of the commensal oral microflora, is frequently found in infected root canals but is not considered to be an endodontic pathogen. Lactobacilli have proven to be difficult to identify on species level with biochemical and gene sequencing methods. READ MORE
