1. 1. Spray Induced Gene Silencing in Phytophthora infestans : investigating exogenous dsRNA application for the control of potato late blight

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)

   Author : Poorva Sundararajan; [2024]
   Keywords : Phytophthora infestans; RNAi; potato late blight; gene silencing; SIGS;

   Abstract : Phytophthora infestans is an oomycete pathogen and the causal agent of late blight disease in potato and tomato. Even today, it causes massive loss to crop and economy worldwide. Current disease control strategies include breeding for resistance and extensive fungicide spray. READ MORE

3. 2. Digital Front End Algorithms for Sub-Band Full Duplex

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

   Author : Midhat Rizvi; Khaled Al-Khateeb; [2023]
   Keywords : Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio; Bit Error Rate; Clipping and Filtering; Crest Factor Reduction; Digital front end; Digital Pre-Distortion Error Vector Magnitude; Frequency Division Duplex; Power Amplifier; Peak to Average Power Ratio; Peak Cancellation Crest Factor Reduction; Sub Band Full Duplex; Self-Interference Cancellation; Signal-to-Interference Noise Ratio; Signal-to-Noise Ratio; Turbo Clipping; Time Division Duplex; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Sub-band full duplex is a new communication scheme technology, where a single frequency band is partitioned into sub-bands for downlink (DL) and up-link(UL) transmissions, and both can take place simultaneously. The idea behind the sub-band full duplex development is to improve the throughput, and coverage and reduce the latency of the UL communication by allowing the UL reception during the DL transmission.

4. 3. Investigating the expression and function of RNA-binding protein FUBL-1 in C. elegans

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Védís Mist Eyju Agnadóttir; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : RNA interference (RNAi) is an important mechanism of gene silencing in Caenorhabditis elegans, in which short RNAs direct sequence-specific silencing of gene expression mediated by Argonaute proteins. RNAi in C. READ MORE

5. 4. The role of AmotL2 in the regulation of mesenchymal transitioning of endothelial cells

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

   Author : Anita-Ann Monteiro; [2023]
   Keywords : Endothelial-mesenchymal transition EndMT ; atherosclerosis; transforming growth factor β TGF-β ; Angiomotin-Like 2 AmotL2 ; Scrambled Scr ; knockdown kd ; Immunofluorescence IF ;

   Abstract : Background During development, endothelial cells acquire mesenchymal-like properties to migrate and facilitate normal vascular formation. This process of transformation is known as endothelial to mesenchymal transition (EndMT) and has also been implicated in diseases like vascular pathologies contributing to endothelial inflammation, atherosclerosis and tumour angiogenesis.

6. 5. Expression of FLAG-tagged argonautes in Dictyostelium discoideum

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för cell- och molekylärbiologi

   Author : Zozek Abdul Rahman; [2022]
   Keywords : Dictyostelium; discoideum; Argonaute; Protein; FLAG; FLAG-tag; Molecular Biology; Microbiology; SorMC; agnA; agnC; agnE; electrophoresis; pDM304;

   Abstract : Argonautes are conserved RNA-binding proteins that can regulate gene expression post transcriptionally through a process known as RNA interference (RNAi). This is done through the use of small RNAs, e.g. sRNAs that act as a guide for the argonautes, allowing for sequence-specific binding to the target site. READ MORE
