  1. 6. Evaluating targeted combination therapies in EGFR wild-type non-small-cell lung cancer using mass spectrometry-based proteomics

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för immunteknologi

    Author : Johan Thorsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Survival for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients has been significantly improved by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in patients with EGFR mutations. However, certain subpopulations of NSCLC patients with EGFR wild-type (wt) status have been shown to also respond to EGFR-TKIs. READ MORE

  3. 7. Investigations of miR-34a structure and dynamics by SHAPE MaP and optimal time between transfection and modification by qPCR

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Ellinor Lindén; [2023]
    Keywords : SHAPE MaP; qPCR; miRNA; HNF4α; mRNA-34a; SHAPE MaP; qPCR; miRNA; HNF4α; mRNA-34a;

    Abstract : microRNA (miRNA) är korta icke-kodande RNA sekvenser som har fått ökande uppmärksamhet då de kan binda till mRNA och styra vårt genuttryck. Omkring trettio procent av våra proteinkodande gener styrs av miRNA. miRNA binder till mRNA vilket hindrar dess translation eller leder till nedbrytning av mRNA. READ MORE

  4. 8. 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

  5. 9. Recombinant Expression of Novel Wild Type Oat Hemoglobins in Escherichia Coli

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi; Lunds universitet/Beräkningskemi

    Author : Frank Rummukainen; [2022]
    Keywords : Recombinant technology; Protein expression; Hemoglobin; Phytoglobin; Escherichia coli; Oat; Avena sativa; Heme; Iron; Biosynthesis; Transcription; qPCR; SDS-PAGE; Fermentation; Recombination; Applied Biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Hemoglobin is a protein transporting oxygen through our bloodstreams and is as such essential for aerobic life. Hemoglobins also exist in plants, with a wide variety of functions other than oxygen transport. READ MORE

  6. 10. Pollen identification using sequencing techniques

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Bimaljeet Kaur; [2022]
    Keywords : pollen; rbcL gene; barcoding; metabarcoding; Sanger sequencing; MinION sequencing;

    Abstract : Palynology or the study of pollen, is essential understand the relationship between plants and their pollinators. Traditionally, pollen grains are identified by microscopy. The method has several shortcomings, such as being time-consuming and having low taxonomic resolution. READ MORE
