1. A novel Adenoviral miRNA, a candidate for development of a novel gene therapy startegy
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : In 2017, a novel miRNA was found at the MLTU-region of adenoviral genome, termed as MLP-TSS-sRNA. This current study started with performing a series of mutations in the MLP-TSS-sRNA in order to investigate how the MLP-TSS-sRNA as a single stranded small RNA was protected from rapid RNA degradation in transfected cells (in vivo).

2. Lactobacilli Suppress Gene Expression of Key Proteins Involved in miRNA Biogenesis in HT29 and VK2/E6E7 Cells
University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknikAbstract : It has previously been demonstrated that lactic acid bacteria are able to influence the innate immune response of host cells. One way this can be achieved is through modulation of inflammatory cascades initiated by pattern recognition elements such as toll-like receptors. READ MORE

4. mRNA and natural endogenous antisense RNA in Dictyostelium discoideum
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Molecular BiosciencesAbstract : The aim of this Master's Thesis was to investigate the presence and regulation of RNAi in the model organism Dictyostelium discoideum. The background for the project is a cDNA library representing 18-25nt RNAs (9000 clones) from Dictyostelium discoideum that recently was constructed. READ MORE
