  1. 1. Investigating ERβ chromatin binding and its potential interaction with LRH-1 in an ovarian context

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Mick Phenphak; [2023]
    Keywords : estrogen receptor beta; ovary; granulosa cells; ChIP; qPCR; östrogen receptor beta; äggstock; granulosa celler; ChIP; qPCR;

    Abstract : Invasiv äggstockscancer anses vara en av de mest dödligaste gynekologiska maligniteterna. Granulosacelltumör i äggstocken är en sällsynt subtyp av äggstockstumör, som utgör 1–5% av alla äggstockstumörer. De kan kännetecknas av den långsamma tillväxthastigheten och produktionen av höga östrogennivåer. READ MORE

  3. 2. The effect of TRAP150 on HPV16 E1 gene regulation

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Emma Svanberg Frisinger; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Human papilloma virus (HPV) is a small DNA virus that is known as the causative agent in cervical cancer. The virus is found worldwide and causes more than 300 000 deaths yearly. Although there are many types of HPV, HPV16 is found in 99 % of cervical cancer cases. READ MORE

  4. 3. A Comparison of Sensitive Splice Aware Aligners in RNA Sequence Data Analysis in Leaping towards Benchmarking

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Chizoba Oguchi; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Bioinformatics, as a field, rapidly develops and such development requires the design ofalgorithms and software. RNA-seq provides robust information on RNAs, both alreadyknown and new, hence the increased study of the RNA. READ MORE

  5. 4. Identification of adenovirus new splice sites

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Uzair Tauheed; [2012]
    Keywords : Alternative splicing; human adenovirus type 2; RNA sequencing; splice sites; major late transcription unit; adenovirus DNA; PCR analysis.;

    Abstract : RNA splicing is a process where introns are removed and exons are joined together. Human adenovirus type 2 pre-mRNAs undergoes intensive alternative splicing and produce more than 40 differently spliced mRNAs.  This thesis work is focused on the identification of new splice sites in adenovirus.

  6. 5. Alternative splicing and its regulation under normal and abnormal conditions

    University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Jenny Ackelman; [2010]
    Keywords : Alternative splicing; ESE; ESS; hnRNP proteins; ISE; ISS; Regulation; Spliceosome; SR proteins;

    Abstract : During the maturation of pre-mRNA introns are removed and exons are spliced together, to form a primary transcript, a reaction that is catalyzed by the spliceosome. Alternative splicing is a complex reaction that mainly utilizes one of four mechanisms; exon skipping, 5’ splice site choice, 3’ splice site choice and intron retention. READ MORE
