  1. 11. Mutational analysis of the csgD mRNA leader: search for a mode of regulation

    University essay from Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Linnea Jonsäll; [2013]
    Keywords : Regulatory small RNA; enterobacteria; CsgD; OmrA; OmrB; mutational analysis; in vivo and in vitro translation assay;

    Abstract : The CsgD protein is the master regulator of a pathway leading to the formation of curli, in essence regulating the switch between a motile and a sessile lifestyle for bacteria. The 5’-UTR region of the csgD mRNA is a hotspot for multiple regulatory small RNAs (sRNA) involved in a complex regulatory network. READ MORE

    Abstract : Dengue Virus (DENV) is a positive single stranded RNA virus presented in four serotypes, DEN1V, DEN2V, DEN3V and DEN4V. Its structure is composed of three structural proteins, capsid, precursor membrane (prM) and envelope, and seven non structural (NS) proteins, NS1, NS2A, NS2B, NS3, NS4A, NS4B, and NS5. READ MORE

  4. 13. PCR Optimisation and Sequencing of L1CAM for the Verification of a Mutation in a Family with L1 Syndrome

    University essay from Institutionen för klinisk och experimentell medicin

    Author : Malin Eriksson; [2009]
    Keywords : L1CAM; L1 syndrome; PCR optimisation; cycle sequencing;

    Abstract : L1 syndrome is an X-linked recessive disorder, characterised by congenital hydrocephalus, adducted thumbs, spastic paraplegia, agenesis of the corpus callosum and mental retardation. The disease is caused by mutations in the L1CAM gene, encoding a protein predominantly expressed in the nervous system. READ MORE
