1. 1. Modelling conversion of adult skin cells to neurons

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Viktor Drugge; [2018]
   Keywords : Human adult fibroblast; Neuron; Neural conversion; Transdifferentiation; Direct reprogramming; Direct lineage conversion; Simulation; Regulatory gene network; Gene network topology; Gene circuit; Gene dynamics; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Scientists are now able to directly convert one somatic cell type into another using a procedure known as direct lineage reprogramming or transdifferentiation. In this procedure, transcription factors which are important for initiating a rewriting of the gene expressions are introduced in the cell. READ MORE

3. 2. Rapid prototyping of biomolecular circuits through module characterization in cell-free expression systems

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

   Author : Anton Frisk; [2015]
   Keywords : biocircuits; applied biochemistry; tillämpad biokemi; Synthetic biology; biochemistry; biomolecular circuits; TX-TL; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

   Abstract : Over the past years, the field of synthetic biology has gained a significant array of tools and parts, making way for increasingly complex bio-molecular circuits to be constructed. The development of biocircuits can be facilitated by assembling parts in a less complex, cell-free, environment which contains only the machinery for gene transcription (TX) and translation (TL), which have been extracted from bacteria.
