  1. 1. Comparative genomics of Central Arctic Ocean microbiota for observation of Alternative Carbon Fixation Pathways

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Kaavya Venkateswaran; [2023]
    Keywords : comparative genomics; microbial ecology; bioinformatics; carbon fixation; pangenomics;

    Abstract : The Central Arctic Ocean is a repository of rich and diverse biota, whose major portion is one of the most important drivers of global biogeochemical cycles, including carbon cycling. In this study, the functional potential of the microbiota to fix carbon with alternative carbon fixation pathways were investigated along with their chemolithotrophic characteristics. READ MORE

  3. 2. Saponiner i ärta : biosyntes av soyasaponiner och dess genetiska mekanismer i ärtväxter

    Keywords : Pisum sativum; baljväxter; Fabaceae; proteingrödor; växtförädling; jämförande genomik;

    Abstract : Efterfrågan på proteinrika vegetabiliska livsmedel ökar och intresse finns från både konsument, politiker och industri att använda svenskodlade råvaror i större utsträckning. Ärta (Pisum sativum L. READ MORE

  4. 3. Whole-Genome Sequencing of two Swedish Individuals on PromethION

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatik

    Author : Nazeefa Fatima; [2019]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Background: Chromosomes can undergo various changes such as deletions, inversions, insertions, and/or translocations resulting in structural variation differences between individuals. Structural variants are a common source of variability in the human genome and have been known to be associated with common diseases such as autism, cancer, and rare human diseases [1, 2]. READ MORE

  5. 4. Detection of artefacts in FFPE-sample sequence data

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Hugo Swenson; [2019]
    Keywords : Cancer; FFPE; Sequence Artefacts; Precision Medicine; Bioinformatics; Program;

    Abstract : Next generation sequencing is increasingly used as a diagnostic tool in the clinical setting. This is driven by the vast increase in molecular targeted therapy, which requires detailed information on what genetic variants are present in patient samples. READ MORE

  6. 5. Exploration of an all-atom thermodynamic model to predict site-specific evolutionary rates in proteins

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Fábio Dias Correia de Oliveira; [2019]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Understanding the patterns of evolutionary sequence divergence is fundamental for comparative analyses like phylogenetics or genomics. The rate at which the different sites of protein sequences evolve is multifactorial and the causes of variation among them are highly convoluted. READ MORE
