1. Design and production of adeno-associated virus vectors for imaging mitochondrial networks in the brain
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that function in a complex interconnected network within the cell. Neurons are sensitive and highly energy demanding cells in the brain which require a functioning mitochondrial network that is able to provide ATP and modulate calcium. READ MORE

2. Visualizing neuronal cell sub-populations using novel transgenic zebrafish lines.
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologiAbstract : Zebrafish is a frequently used model organism with an array of transgenic lines that have been used indevelopmental and physiological studies. We aim to generate novel transgenic zebrafish reporter lines to study subpopulations of spinal neurons in vivo. READ MORE

3. Characterization of the fusion protein mNG-Aβ1-42 as a fluorescence reporter probe for amyloid structure
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologiAbstract : Alzheimer’s Disease, also called AD, is a horrible, degenerative brain disease that more than 35 million people over the world have. Today, there is no cure for this disease, only treatments that are temporarily relieving the symptoms. The two proteins that is thought to be the main cause of AD is amyloid β (Aβ) and tau. READ MORE

4. Development of bicistronic transcription and translation unit (TNT) for reliable expression of heterologous genes in Synechocystis PCC 6803
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : Rational metabolic engineering requires tools for precise control of heterologous gene expression at predictable levels. Especially, regulatory genetic elements, such as promoters and ribosome binding sites, that can provide strong and reliable expression, are needed. READ MORE

5. Assessment of the Fluorescent Activities of Different Fluorescent Proteins for Potential Use as Biosensors in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologiAbstract : Development of genetically modified microorganisms such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae for use as microbial cell factories to produce fine and bulk chemicals has lately proceeded very rapidly, much thanks to new gene editing methods based on a CRISPR/Cas9 system adapted from bacteria which increases the rate of genetic engineering. However, development of methods which enable fast and simple screening of the best performing strains with specific sought-after characteristics is not advancing at the same pace. READ MORE
