FRIBIO-Biologi og biomedisin

The study of translocation of extragenous growth factors into cells- mechanisms and biological function of intracellular growth factors.

The growth, development and repair of cells and organs are controlled by a variety of hormones, growth factors and cytokines. Many of these factors are proteins that bind to specific molecules (receptors) at the cell surface. These receptors reside in the plasma membrane. Lipid membranes control...

Cell cycle regulation: the role of replication clamps and interacting proteins

DNA replication is executed by enzymes called polymerases. The polymerases are tethered to the DNA template by binding to so-called clamps, which are doughtnut-shaped protein complexes encircling the DNA. The clamps are being loaded onto the DNA by clamp loaders, another protein complex. All orga...
