Centre for Embryology and Healthy Development (CRESCO)

Noen av de mest avgjørende hendelsene i en organismes liv skjer under befruktningen og i de aller tidligste stadiene av embryoutvikling. Disse hendelsene omfatter modning av kjønnsceller, befruktning og aktivering av gener. Genetisk reprogrammering er en forutsetning for befruktning og embryoutv...

FRIPRO-Fri prosjektstøtte

Epitranscriptomic regulation and genome stability in meiosis and the preimplantation embryo

En av de mest inngående endringene i et liv til en organisme er reprogrammeringen av gener under modning av eggcellen og i det tidligere embryo. Under modning av egg blir gener skrudd av slik at de er helt avhengige av stabile mRNA (mRNA representerer et bindeledd mellom et gen på et kromosom og ...

FRIMED2-FRIPRO forskerprosjekt, medisin og helse

Epitranscriptomic regulation of meiosis and the preimplantation embryo

Dynamiske modifikasjoner på DNA og protein er helt nødvendige for å regulere genuttrykk i cellene våre og det er slike modifikasjoner som gjørt at en hudcelle er så forskjellig fra f.eks en hjernecelle. Slike modifikasjoner har vært kjent i flere tiår. Dynamiske modifikasjoner på RNA er en mye ny...

Reversible 6-methyladenine (m6A) base modification in mRNA: molecular function and role in disease

Kjemiske modifikasjoner i DNA og protein har blitt studert i flere tiår og oppdagelsen av deres reverserbare potensial har endret vår forståelse av dynamisk genregulering.. Det er nettopp identifisert en modifikasjon som er dynamisk i mRNA. Foreløpige resultater indikerer at denne modifikasjonen ...

STAMCELLER-Stamcelleforskning

Reversible methyl modifications in DNA and RNA: dynamics in stem cell growth and differentiation.

A broad repertoire of modifications is known to underlie adaptable coding and structural function of proteins, DNA and various RNA species. Methylations of mammalian DNA and histone residues are known to regulate transcription and the discoveries of demet hylases that remove methylation in DNA an...

4th EU-US meeting on Endogenous genome damage

The main scientific focus of this meeting will be on DNA repair mechanisms and mutagenesis. Most mutagenic and carcinogenic agents induce covalent changes in the structure of the DNA and living organisms have evolved a large number of gene functions speci fically designed to repair or tolerate su...

STAMCELLER-Stamcelleforskning

Mapping of histone modifications in totipotent and pluripotent cells in vivo and characterization of a novel epigenetic mark

This project focuses on revealing the epigenetic basis of in vivo pluripotency and totipotency, characterizing a putative novel epigenetic mark with relevance to pluripotency and the characterization of candidate enzymes for the regulation of this mark. Fertilization produces a totipotent zygo...

FRIMEDBIO-Fri prosj.st. med.,helse,biol

The AlkB family of hydroxylases; unique roles in DNA, RNA and histone hydroxylation/demethylation.

This project is partly based upon the intriguing phenotype and breeding pattern of Alkbh1, Alkbh4 and Alkbh7 (AlkB homolog 1, 4 and 7) targeted mice. Alkbh1 targeting in mice cause sex-ratio distortion and asymmetric left-right eye development. Alkbh1 is highly expressed in embryonic stem (ES) c...

STAMCELLER-Stamcelleforskning

The AlkB family of demethylases; putative roles in embryonic stem cell identity and epigenetic reprogramming of the germ line.

This project is initiated primarily based upon the intriguing phenotype and breeding pattern of Alkbh (AlkB homologs) targeted mice. Targeting of mouse Alkbh's (8 in total) cause various degree of sex-ratio distortion and developmental abnormalities incl uding asymmetric left-right eye developme...

Role of AlkB homologs 1 and 7 (ABH1 and 7) in epigenetic reprogramming

This project is primarily based upon the intriguing phenotype and breeding pattern of mABH1 (mouse AlkB homolog 1) targeted mice. As outlined below, this dioxygenase is required for faithful embryonic development. Major developmental defects include failu re of eye, nose and limb development (Fig...
