• The Impact of polypharmacology on chemical biology

  Antolín Hernández, Albert (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2014-10-09)

  There is now ample evidence that drugs have biologically relevant interactions with more than one protein, a behavior that is commonly referred to as polypharmacology. This finding is starting to have a true impact on the ...
• Intrinsic and environmental influences on DNA methylation and gene expression in fish

  Anastasiadi, Dafni (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2016-11-14)

  Epigenetic mechanisms, influenced by intrinsic and environmental factors are crucial for the regulation of gene expression and, ultimately, the phenotype. The European sea bass is used as a model to study these influences ...
• Characterization of the role of the CPEB family of RNA-binding proteins in neurodegeneration

  Anta Rodríguez, Héctor (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2016-12-15)

  Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia in the elderly. It is associated to a progressive loss of memory, problems in learning and behaviour changes. This disease is characterized by the accumulation ...
• Characterization of the human sperm centrosome and its role in (in)fertility

  Amargant i Riera, Farners (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2018-07-19)

  The centrosome is an essential organelle for the development of a new organism in animals. Upon fertilization the spermatozoon enters into the oocyte providing its basal body that converts into the first centrosome of the ...
• Bonobo evolution : from the perspective of genomes

  Han, Sojung (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2019-10-16)

  Bonobos are an interesting species to study due to their unique evolutionary features such as a peaceful social nature and hypersexual behavior. The prolonged exaggerated sexual swelling in females is a notable difference ...
• The Role of Msi2 in adult and embryonic hematopoiesis

  Andrés Aguayo, Luisa de (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2017-05-05)

  The life-long production of blood cells is enabled by hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) residing in the bone marrow. An understanding of the genes that control how HSPCs work to sustain the continued production ...
• The evolutionary landscape of the DNA damage response network: a computational approach

  Arcas Mantas, Aida (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2013-04-25)
