Genome-wide identification and comprehensive analysis of transcriptionsl desert regions
Schaefer, UIf (University of the Western Cape, 2009)The initiation of transcription in mammalian genomes predominatly occurs at 5' promoter regions, however increasingly initiation events have been observed within introns, coding exons and 3' UTRs. Nevertheless there ... -
Identification of bacterial pathogenic gene classes subject to diversifying selection
Panji, Sumir (University of the Western Cape, 2009)Availability of genome sequences for numerous bacterial species comprising of different bacterial strains allows elucidation of species and strain specific adaptations that facilitate their survival in widely fluctuating ... -
Transcription regulation and candidate diagnostic markers of esophageal cancer
Essack, Magbubah (University of the Western Cape, 2009)Esophageal cancer (EC) ranks among the ten most frequent cancers worldwide. Mortality rates associated with EC are very similar to the incidence rates due to the relatively late stage of diagnosis and the poor efficacy of ...
