  1. 1. The Function of FoxB During Limb Development and Axis Formation in the Spider Parasteatoda tepidariorum

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Miriam Heingård; [2017]
    Keywords : spider; RNA interference; FoxB; ventral patterning; appendage; Drosophila; spindel; RNA interferens; FoxB; ventral; lemmar; Drosophila;

    Abstract : Arthropods are the most diverse and speciose group of animals on the planet. A key factor in their success is the adaptation of various appendages to new functions and environments, resulting in radically different morphologies. To understand this diversity, it is important to study the underlying genetic mechanisms. READ MORE

  3. 2. Delay-dependent Stability of Genetic Regulatory Networks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Johan Ugander; [2008]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Genetic regulatory networks are biochemical reaction systems, consisting of a network of interacting genes and associated proteins. The dynamics of genetic regulatory networks contain many complex facets that require careful consideration during the modeling process. READ MORE

  4. 3. Dynamics in Boolean Networks

    University essay from Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Fredrik Karlsson; [2005]
    Keywords : Electronics; Random Boolean Networks; Derrida plots; Genetic regulatory networks; Elektronik;

    Abstract : In this thesis several random Boolean networks are simulated. Both completely computer generated network and models for biological networks are simulated. Several different tools are used to gain knowledge about the robustness. These tools are Derrida plots, noise analysis and mean probability for canalizing rules. READ MORE

  5. 4. Predicting gene expression using artificial neural networks

    University essay from Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Lisa Lindefelt; [2002]
    Keywords : Artificial neural networks gene expression;

    Abstract : Today one of the greatest aims within the area of bioinformatics is to gain a complete understanding of the functionality of genes and the systems behind gene regulation. Regulatory relationships among genes seem to be of a complex nature since transcriptional control is the result of complex networks interpreting a variety of inputs. READ MORE

  6. 5. Modelling Gene Expression during Ontogenetic Differentiation

    University essay from Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Simon Lundell; [2001]
    Keywords : Genetic Networks; Neural Networks; Gene Expression analysis;

    Abstract : Various types of recurrent neural networks have been used as models for the regulatory relationships between genes. The neural network is trained on the data from micro-array techniques, each gene corresponds to a neuron in the network. READ MORE
