1. 6. Evaluation and implementation of quality control parameters for genome-wide DNA methylome sequencing

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

   Author : Sara Ekberg; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Epigenomics is the study of modifications to the genetic material without changes to the DNA sequence, one such modification is methylation of nucleotides. DNA methylation is associated with gene regulation and is studied in a variety of fields such as cancer and ageing. READ MORE

3. 7. Understanding sequence errors in analysis of short tandem repeats through optimisation of a library preparation protocol utilising unique molecular indices

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Nelly Gyllö Lind; [2022]
   Keywords : polymerase chain reaction; massively parallel sequencing; DNA analysis; short tandem repeats; DNA polymerase; unique molecular indices;

   Abstract : In the last few years massively parallel sequencing (MPS) has become important for forensic DNA analysis by providing new and broader possibilities, such as increased discrimination power for short tandem repeat (STR) analyses. An imperative part of MPS analysis is library preparation where there is a fundamental reliability on in vitro DNA polymerisation, which is prone to errors. READ MORE

4. 8. Spruce associated Porodaedalea species distribution in Sweden

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Monica Guilera Recoder; [2022]
   Keywords : Fungi; Genetics; Porodaedalea;

   Abstract : Wood-inhabiting fungi have very important roles in the ecosystem in the degradation of dead wood by acting respectively as parasites and saprotrophs in boreal forests. Porodaedalea chrysoloma is a wood-decay parasite poroid fungi that is considered a key species in the old growth boreal forests. Due to forestry its habitat is declining. READ MORE

5. 9. Population Dynamics of Transposable Elements in Leptidea sinapis

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Ahmet Melih Öten; [2022]
   Keywords : transposable elements; transposons; population dynamics; Leptidea sinapis; genomics; bioinformatics;

   Abstract : Although transposable elements (TEs) have been subjected to detailed study in various organisms such as humans, maize, and drosophila, this is not the case for all organisms. Despite numerous studies on the effects of TEs in the field of evolution and functional genomics, there has not been many studies yet on how much variation these elements show in populations.

6. 10. Pre-analysis of Nanopore Data for DNA Base Calling

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Milad Javadi; Yun Luk Liu; [2022]
   Keywords : Nanopore sequencing; DNA sequencing; bioinformatics; machine learning; neural networks; linear regression; supervised learning;

   Abstract : Nanopore sequencing is a relatively new DNA sequencing method which measures the current over a nanopore in a membrane as each nucleotide of the DNA passes through the nanopore. From the resulting current signal it is possible to determine the sequence of nucleotides in the DNA by using a base caller.
