1. 1. Gene expression editing in myeloma cell lines using CRISPR/Cas9 technique

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

   Author : Wilma Wadman; [2023]
   Keywords : BMPR1A; BMPR2; bone morphogenetic protein; gene knockout; multiple myeloma;

   Abstract : 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

   Abstract : Mellan 1960 och idag har världspopulationen dubblerats medan matproduktionen tredubblats. Det har möjliggjorts av kemiskt framställda gödsel som introducerades på mitten av 1900-talet. Sedan 1965 har användandet av kvävegödsel ökat sexdubblet. READ MORE

5. 4. Navigating Large-Scale Plasmid DNA Purification : A Recommendation of Current and Future Downstream Purification Solutions

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Matilda Eriksson; Alva Wells; Maria Frey; Lisa Johansson; Gabriel Pettersson; David Sjöberg; [2023]
   Keywords : Plasmid purification; pDNA; large-scale chromatography;

   Abstract : Previous small-scale methods for plasmid DNA (pDNA) purification fail to meet theindustry’s demand for sufficient quantities. Greater volumes of bacterial lysates are a consequence of larger volumetric fermentations and traditional large-scale down-stream purification processes have some disadvantages and limitations.

   Abstract : The protein hemoglobin (Hb) is vital for us humans to ensure enough oxygen replacement in the body. Hb-resembling proteins also exist in plants, these are called phytoglobins (Pgbs). Pgbs are very interesting since they can play a considerable role in the development of blood substitutes and iron supplements for human use. READ MORE
