  1. 1. CRISPR Screen to Identify Genes Regulating Melanoma Cell Invasiveness

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Emma Kroon; [2023]
    Keywords : CRISPR-Cas9; gene knockout; viral packaging; transduction; invasionstest; CRISPR-Cas9; genknockout; viruspackning; transduction; invasion assay;

    Abstract : Maligna cancerceller har förmågan att sprida sig okontrollerat i kroppen och metastasera till avlägsna organ. Kritiskt i metastaserings processen är cancercellers förmåga att invadera närliggande vävnader innan de sprider sig vidare ut i kroppen. READ MORE

  3. 2. Towards a tunable, wide-band acoustic transducer operating in the quantum regime.

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Abel Hugot; [2022]
    Keywords : Hybrid quantum systems; Acoustics; Impedance matching; SQUIDs; Hybrida kvantsystem; Akustik; Impedansanpassning; SQUIDs.;

    Abstract : In the past decade we have seen fast development of new quantum technologies that promise to revolutionise communications and computing. Many different routes are explored to physically implement such quantum technologies. Among others, we can mention superconducting circuits, spin-based devices and photonic devices. READ MORE

  4. 3. Modulation of a model ligand-gated ion channel by amphetamine derivatives

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Strukturbiologi

    Author : Emelia Karlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : pentameric ligand-gated ion channels; sTeLIC; electrophysiology; psychostimulants; amphetamine derivatives;

    Abstract : Pentameric ligand-gated ion channels are critical mediators of electrochemical signal transduction in neurons and other excitable cells, causing them to be important targets of psychoactive drugs. Structural data for these complex proteins are limited, particularly among eukaryotic family members and for the functionally critical open state. READ MORE

  5. 4. The impact of oral microbiota and other factors on taste perception

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Lisa Vasquez Johansson; [2022]
    Keywords : Mouth microflora; PROP-sensitivity; taste receptors; flavor; microbial composition; Smakperception; munnens mikroflora; smakuppfattning; smaklökar;

    Abstract : En mängd olika faktorer har visat sig påverka smakperceptionen. Ålder, fetma och den mikrobiellamiljön i munhålan är bara några exempel på omständigheter som kan resultera i smak-skillnader. READ MORE

  6. 5. Analyzing the use of Humidity Cue in Navigation of Drosophila melanogaster

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Kalle Andersson; [2022]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Humidity is one of the main abiotic factor of ecosystems and affects animals behaviour, fitness and distribution. Due to their small size and inability to thermoregulate using metabolism, insects, such as the fruit fly Drosophila Melanogaster, are especially reliant on humidity. READ MORE
