  1. 1. Acquired and lost structure-functions of non-enveloped and enveloped viruses

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Diogo Filipe; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Viruses are biological entities that constantly affect the world around us and in many cases they can harm the health of humans and negatively impact food production, in agriculture andfisheries. The project concept is that, through the structural studies of viruses that infectsimple hosts, it is possible to point out structural features that are unique and conserved inviruses, that infect human, other animals, and crops, in the same phylogenetic lineage.

  4. 3. Genomic analyses of Scandinavian TRB farmers and their relation to other Neolithic populations

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Människans evolution; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Tatiana Ruiz-Bedoya; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Human population history and the social composition of human groups during the Middle Neolithic (MN) in Scandinavia is still to be fully understood. The possibility of obtaining genomic data from ancient tissues has opened a new horizon for understanding ancient human populations. READ MORE

  5. 4. Modelling conversion of adult skin cells to neurons

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Viktor Drugge; [2018]
    Keywords : Human adult fibroblast; Neuron; Neural conversion; Transdifferentiation; Direct reprogramming; Direct lineage conversion; Simulation; Regulatory gene network; Gene network topology; Gene circuit; Gene dynamics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Scientists are now able to directly convert one somatic cell type into another using a procedure known as direct lineage reprogramming or transdifferentiation. In this procedure, transcription factors which are important for initiating a rewriting of the gene expressions are introduced in the cell. READ MORE

  6. 5. Phylogenetic fatemapping: estimating allelic dropout probability in single cell genomic sequencing

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för datavetenskap och kommunikation (CSC)

    Author : Marie Kindblom; Ezeddin Al Hakim; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Single-cell genomic sequencing is a rapidly developing field that will play a vital role in human biology and science in the future. As of now, next-generation sequencing is accelerating in speed and decreasing in cost more quickly than Moore's law. READ MORE
