36. Analyses of circular DNA molecules in the leafhopper Psammotettix alienus for identification of viruses and plasmids
University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant BiologyAbstract : Microorganisms often depend on vectors for transmission. A single vector may carry different species of microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria and viruses. In Sweden, leafhoppers of the species Psammotettix alienus are known as a vector of wheat dwarf virus, but they may be carriers of other microorganisms as well. READ MORE

37. 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).

38. Molecular detection and characterization of begomoviruses from Burkina Faso and Nicaragua
University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant BiologyAbstract : Agriculture plays a major role in the economy of countries in Africa and America. Viruses have emerged as major plant pathogens during the last few decades on agriculturally important field crop plants. The genus Begomovirus belongs to the family Geminiviridae, which is the largest family of plant-infecting viruses. READ MORE

39. Protecting Privacy: Automatic Compression and Encryption of Next-Generation Sequencing Alignment Data
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Experimentell och klinisk onkologiAbstract : As the field of next-generation sequencing (NGS) matures and the technology grows more advanced, it is becoming an increasingly strong tool for solving various biological problems. Harvesting and analysing the full genomic sequence of an individual and comparing it to a reference genome can unravel information about detrimental mutations, in particular ones that give rise to diseases such as cancer.

40. The impact of CRISPR/Cas9 generated mutations in pioneer transcription factors FOXA1 and GATA3 on oestrogen receptor function
University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologiAbstract : Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women and two thirds of all breast cancers are classified as oestrogen receptor positive. ER is a transcription factor that regulates gene expression and promote cell proliferation that is critical in mammary gland development, and its aberrant activity is commonly present in breast cancer.
