1. Functional Characterisation of Effectors from Biotrophic and Necrotrophic Wheat Pathogens in Heterologous Expression Systems
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant PathologySammanfattning : Effector proteins play an important role in the interactions between fungal pathogens and their host plant. Recognition of effectors can lead to localised cell death in plants. The necrotrophic fungus Parastagonospora nodorum utilises this mechanism to induce cell death in wheat and cause Stagonospora nodorum blotch (SNB). LÄS MER
2. Functional analysis of effectors from Blumeria graminis and their effect on the plant microbiome
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant PathologySammanfattning : With an expected population of 10 billion by the next century, agricultural production has to increase at the same pace to match such demand. One of the main obstacles to achieving this are the pathogenic microorganisms that reduce food quality and yields every year. LÄS MER
3. Differential expression and function of fubl-1 gene isoforms in C. elegans
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Molekylärbiologi; Uppsala universitet/Mikrobiologi och immunologi; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Alternative splicing is the process of producing a variety of transcripts from one and the same gene. This adds further possible variability to gene expression and can in theory mean that one protein coding gene can produce multiple proteins with potentially different functions. LÄS MER
4. Search for the Argonaute protein that governs miRNA regulation in Dictyostelium discoideum
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression through RNA interference. These small RNAs enact gene silencing by forming a RNA-inducing silencing complex together with the effector protein Argonaute. The function of the Argonautes in the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum is not yet fully understood. LÄS MER
5. Phylogenetic analysis of secretion systems in Francisellaceae and Legionellales : Investigating events of intracellularization
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Host-adapted bacteria are pathogens that, through evolutionary time and host-adaptive events, acquired the ability to manipulate hosts into assisting their own reproduction and spread. Through these host-adaptive events, free-living pathogens may be rendered unable to reproduce without their host, which is an irreversible step in evolution. LÄS MER
