1. 1. Single-molecule Imaging of the Cell Division Ring in Escherichia coli Using the ALFA-tag

   University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

   Author : Emma Westlund; [2023]
   Keywords : ALFA-tag; Escherichia coli; Divisome protein FtsZ; mEos3.2; Nanobodies; Nanotags; PALM; Plasmid transformation; sfGFP; Single-molecule Imaging; ALFA-tag; Escherichia coli; Divisomprotein FtsZ; mEos3.2; Nanokroppar; Nanotaggar; PALM; Plasmidtransformation; sfGFP; Enmolekyl-mikroskopi;

   Abstract : The use of super-resolution (SR) microscopy is an important tool for understanding the inside mechanisms of bacterial cells. However, for SR imaging, the labelling of the proteins of interest is a great challenge as flourescent proteins (FPs) are often too big to be directly fused to the target protein and traditional immunolabelling with antibodies creates too long separation between the fluorophore and the target protein.

3. 2. Adipocytes from SERCA2 knockout mice exhibit a dysregulation in the secretion of adiponectin and resistin

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

   Author : Divya Bansal; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Obesity leading to Type-2-diabetes is a major health issue all over the world. Obesity characterized by expansion of adipose tissue, in particular white adipose tissue (WAT) which controls the metabolic physiology in the body by secreting proteins like adiponectin and resistin.

4. 3. Stress-induced alternative splicing of Serine/Arginine-rich proteins in the moss Physcomitrella patens

   University essay from Molekylär genetik

   Author : Jessica Olsen; [2011]
   Keywords : Alternative splicing; Physcomitrella patens; Serine Arginine-rich proteins; Stress;

   Abstract : Plants are sessile organisms and thus more exposed to stressful environments. By changing the expression of stress related genes, plants are able to cope with stress. Alternative splicing (AS) of pre-mRNA is a major contributor to proteome diversity in eukaryotes. READ MORE

5. 4. Serine/Arginine-rich proteins in Physcomitrella patens

   University essay from Molekylär genetik; Tekniska högskolan

   Author : Andreas Ring; [2011]
   Keywords : Physcomitrella patens; SR protein; gene expression analysis; overexpression;

   Abstract : Serine/Arginine-rich proteins (SR-proteins) have been well characterized in metazoans and in the flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana. But so far no attempts on characterizing SR-proteins in the moss Physcomitrella patens have been done. SR-proteins are a conserved family of splicing regulators essential for constitutive- and alternative splicing. READ MORE

6. 5. Alternative splicing and its regulation under normal and abnormal conditions

   University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

   Author : Jenny Ackelman; [2010]
   Keywords : Alternative splicing; ESE; ESS; hnRNP proteins; ISE; ISS; Regulation; Spliceosome; SR proteins;

   Abstract : During the maturation of pre-mRNA introns are removed and exons are spliced together, to form a primary transcript, a reaction that is catalyzed by the spliceosome. Alternative splicing is a complex reaction that mainly utilizes one of four mechanisms; exon skipping, 5’ splice site choice, 3’ splice site choice and intron retention. READ MORE
