1. Gene expression editing in myeloma cell lines using CRISPR/Cas9 technique
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologiAbstract : Multiple myeloma, or myeloma, is a bone marrow cancer which characterizes by uncontrolled proliferation of mutant plasma cells. It is a disease that claims many lives every year, mostly due to the absence of curative treatment. Finding a suitable treatment is therefor of great importance. READ MORE

2. 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

3. Production and validation of anti-HCV antibodies for viral neutralization
University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)Abstract : Hepatitis-C Virus (HCV) remains the leading cause of liver transplant in the US and the UK, and the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 71 million people are infected worldwide. A vaccine would drastically impact the healthcare-associated burdens that HCV causes globally. READ MORE

4. Increased expression of therapeutic proteins by identification of 3'-UTRs from high expressing genes in CHO cells
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologiAbstract : Therapeutic proteins, a.k.a. biopharmaceuticals, are most commonly produced in expression systems derived from Chinese Hamstery Ovary (CHO) cells, thanks to great capacity of post-translational modifications like secretation, folding and glycosylation.

5. Increased expression of proteins in CHO cells by identification of signal peptides for improved secretion of translated proteins
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Teknisk biologiAbstract : Main purpose of this study was to increase protein expression in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells by improving protein secretion of translated proteins. The goal was to find signal peptides from the screening of signal peptide libraries for improvement of protein secretion using a CHO-cell express selection system. READ MORE
