(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2012)Background Pockmarks (depressions in the seabed) have been discovered throughout the world’s oceans and are often related to hydrocarbon seepage. Although high concentrations of pockmarks are present in ...

(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2011)
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2006)Radiation is a common treatment of cancer. It can be used either as the primary therapy or as an adjuvant treatment. The objective of radiation therapy is to kill the cancer cells, while minimizing the damage on normal ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2007)Background Due to the increased use of genetic modifications in crop improvement, there is a need to develop effective methods for the detection of both known and unknown transgene constructs in plants. We ...
-
(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2007)The goal of the present work was to develop a microchip for amplification and detection of mRNA by employing nucleic acid sequence-based amplification (NASBA) technology. The technology platform should in principle be ...

Molecular and genetic analysis of novel genes involved in imprinting in seed developmentRestricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2010)A cluster of genes in both animals and flowering plants are expressed only from one of the two homologous chromosomes, depending upon whether they are maternally or paternally inherited. This phenomenon is called imprinting, ...
-
Molecular and genetic analysis of the MADS-box Type I transcription factors AGAMOUS-LIKE 28 and AGAMOUS-LIKE 36Restricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2011)Abstract Seed development requires a coordinated interplay between different transcriptional programs in the embryo, the endosperm and the maternally derived seed coat. In angiosperms, the embryo and the endosperm are ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2008)Crucian carp (Carassius carassius) avoids lactic acidosis during prolonged periods of anoxia by producing ethanol as the main anaerobic end-product. Apparently, this is made possible by adaptations in the pyruvate dehydrogenase ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2005)The female gametophyte of higher plants gives rise to the diploid embryo and the triploid endosperm which develop to produce the mature seed. Seed development is a concerted interplay of the embryo, endosperm and the ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2011)
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2007)A central question in biology is how cells in multi-cellular organisms communicate. During the development of the organisms, each single cell needs to know their exact position and function, and cell-cell signaling is ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2007)Non-ribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) are highly refined natural machines for the biosynthesis of secondary oligopeptides which cannot be synthesised by the ribosomal machinery. Due to the attractive biological potential ...
-
(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2010)Adipogenesis is the developmental process that upon appropriate stimuli differentiates progenitor cells into specialized fat storing adipocytes. We studied this process and the potential involvement of two different protein ...
-
(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2007)Androgens are important for the normal development of the male sexual characteristics, but are also involved in pathological conditions such as prostate cancer. The biological effects of androgens are mediated by the ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2006)The elongation step of transcription is now recognized as a critical target for transcription regulation. An increasing number of elongation factors have been identified, and the regulatory mechanism of elongation seems ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2011)Background Conventional high-grade osteosarcoma is a primary malignant bone tumor, which is most prevalent in adolescence. Survival rates of osteosarcoma patients have not improved significantly in the last ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2003)Sammendrag Alle levende organismer inneholder en eller flere DNA polymeraser, og dette enzymet er helt nødvendig for videreføring av arvestoffet fra generasjon til generasjon. DNA- polymeraser har også etter hvert fått ...
-
New insights into the regulation of the tumor suppressor proteins PTEN and Connexin 43 by post-translational modificationsRestricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2012)
-
The nitric oxide synthase protein system in Bacillus cereus : From gene to 3D structureRestricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2012)
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2012)Sensitization of sensory neurons after noxious conditioning may be involved in many chronic pain states, including radiating low back pain and sciatica following disc herniation. Here, we examine such sensitization induced ...
