(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2004)Fibroblast growth factors and the four related high-affinity, tyrosine kinase fibroblast growth factor receptors are involved in the regulation of many key cellular responses in developmental and physiological processes. ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2004)Abstract The interest for commercial rearing of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) has grown over the last decades. However, heterogeneous growth and cannibalism during early juvenile stages causes serious financial losses. ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2004)In order to assess the biological role of the flap endonuclease 1 (Fen1), RNA interference (RNAi) was chosen as a method for FEN1 down-regulation in this study. Knock down of FEN1 was achieved both in stable transfected ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2004)A total of nine single-copy transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana lines displaying varying degrees of silencing of a nos promoter-nptII marker gene (encoding kanamycin-resistance) have been studied, with emphasis on two of these, ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2004)Glutamat er kvantitativt den dominerende eksitatoriske nevrotransmitteren i sentralnervesystemet (CNS) hos pattedyr, og er sannsynligvis involvert i de fleste aspekter ved normal hjernefunksjon, inkludert hukommelse og ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2004)The rbcL gene is constitutively expressed in the Chlamydomonas chloroplast. The gene encodes the large subunit of ribulose-l,S-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco), the enzyme responsible for CO2 fixation in ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2004)Background Microarray-based comparative genomic hybridisation (array CGH) is a technique by which variation in relative copy numbers between two genomes can be analysed by competitive hybridisation to DNA ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2004)Background The transcription factor c-Myb is expressed in hematopoietic progenitor cells and other rapidly proliferating tissues, regulating genes important for proliferation, differentiation and survival. ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2004)Functions of taurine in animal cells have caught interest for a long time. Its efflux activity has been well-studied during cellular volume regulation, but has also been investigated during stimulation with hormones. In ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2004)ABSTRACT: A reporter gene was constructed consisting of the 5´ region of the C. reinhardtii rbcL gene from position –70 to +47, relative to the transcription start point, fused to the E. coli uidA(GUS) structural gene ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2005)DNA polymeraser er av fundamental betydning for levende organismer, ettersom de spiller en avgjørende rolle i replikasjon og reparasjon av DNA. I de siste årene er de blitt viktige genteknologiske verktøy, og varmestabile ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2005)Antimicrobial peptides produced by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are extensively studied, but little is know about their three-dimensional structures. Solution structures of these peptides will be useful to gain information ...
-
(Master thesis / Hovedoppgave, 2005)Production of DNA damage is the basis of cancer treatments, such as radiotherapy. The limitation of the treatment dose tends to be how well the tumor and normal cell within the body can tolerate the therapy. In order to ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2005)The major histocompatibility (MHC) class II molecules present peptides to the T cell receptor on CD4+ lymphocytes. The diversity of the epitopes presented depends critically on the processing of the ingested antigens, and ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2005)Prostate cancer (PCa) and obesity are currently two of the most prevalent health problems in the western world. Some epidemiological studies suggest a connection between PCa and fat intake and obesity. In addition, androgens, ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2005)
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2005)Covalent modifications of the DNA and histones through acetylation, phosphorylation, methylation, etc are central to gene regulation, recombination, DNA replication and many other processes in the cell. With respect to ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2005)Histone lysine methylation is considered to be a relatively stable modification associated with important functions in epigenetic gene control and for organizing chromatin domains. Genes encoding mammalian homologues of ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2005)The high densities of receptors found in synapses are crucial for effective transmission between a nerve and its target cell. At the neuromuscular junctions, acetylcholine is the transmitter substance and its receptor, the ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2005)Androgen ablation during the initial stages of prostate cancer causes regression of the tumor due to an increase in apoptosis and reduced cellular proliferation. However, some prostate cancer cells survive in the androgen ...
