21. Modelling of the DNA Helix’s Duration for Genome Sequencing
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Nanopore sequencing is the next generation ofsequencing methods which promises to deliver cheaper andmore portable genome sequencing capabilities. A single DNAor RNA strand is passed through a nanopore nested in anartificial membrane with an electric potential applied across it. READ MORE

22. Genetic background of temperament traits in standardbred trotters
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and GeneticsAbstract : The genetic background of temperament traits in horses has been subject for research for many years to obtain understanding of domestication, breed differences and welfare. Previous studies have found heritabilities ranging from low to moderate for temperament. READ MORE

23. Epigenetic and transcriptional effects of full-length LINE-1 retrotransposons in human neural progenitor cells
University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatikAbstract : Transposable elements (TE) are parasitic genetic entities that have the ability to alter their position within a genome and have the potential to influence its functionality. Although TEs play beneficial roles in the evolution of their host, they are active in various human disorders including neurological diseases, where may contribute to the progress of the disease.

24. Role of PARN gene in telomere maintenance in a zebrafish model
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : The telomeres are highly conserved repetitive DNA sequence elements present at the ends of linear chromosome. These structures function as a biological clock of the cell since telomeres become shorter with each replication cycle and finally reach a critical threshold in their length after which the cell enters senescence.

25. Targeting the epigenetic state of refractory and relapsing acute myeloid leukaemia
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a heterogeneous group of myeloid lineage malignancies arising from a spectrum of mutations. AML is characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation of clonal cells, which are unable to properly differentiate into mature myeloid cells. READ MORE
