  3. 2. Computational studies on DNA: insights into structure and dynamics

    University essay from SLU/Department of Plant Biology (from 140101)

    Author : Charan Raju Kanna; [2015]
    Keywords : epigenetic modifications; DNA methylation; G-rich sequence; uracil; molecular dynamics; demethylation;

    Abstract : The best-characterized epigenetic modification is DNA methylation, which was found to shape significantly gene expression in mammalian cells, though bacteria and plants display less sequence specificity. The cytosine methylation of DNA sequence here was studied by the molecular dynamic (MD) method. READ MORE

  4. 3. Study on yeast enzymes Urc1p and Urc4p in a novel uracil catabolism pathway (URC)

    University essay from Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Dineshkumar Kandasamy; [2012]
    Keywords : Uracil catabolism;

    Abstract : Purine and pyrimidine bases are the central precursors of DNA and RNA and theirintracellular concentration is balanced by three pathways- de novo, salvage and catabolicpathways. Uracil catabolism pathway has been found in several bacteria and in some fungi(including yeast). Seven genes, URC1-7 have been found to be involved in this novelpathway. READ MORE

  5. 4. Study of three proteins in uracil catabolism pathway

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : You Lv; [2011]
    Keywords : Uracil degradation; URC pathway; Saccharomyces kluyveri expression system; Proteinvetenskap; Chemistry;

    Abstract : This study focused on expression, purification and functional characterization of three key proteins (Urc1p, Urc2p and Urc8p) in the newly discovered uracil catabolism (URC) pathway. A novel expression system was established by using Saccharomyces kluyveri as a host organism for expression of 6-His tagged Urc1p and Urc2p. READ MORE
