Characterization of a VHS virus genotype III isolated from rainbow trout (Oncorhychus mykiss) at a marine site on the west coast of Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-01-26)Background Norwegian production of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) has been without any outbreaks of VHS for many years until the disease emerged in a farm in western Norway in November 2007. The fish were, in addition ... -
Characterization of benthic communities at Loki’s Castle vent field using a photomosaic
(Master thesis, 2021-08-30)Loki’s Castle was the first black smoker hydrothermal vent field to be discovered on the Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge (AMOR), and is known to host a specialized and highly endemic fauna. Despite being studied since its discovery ... -

Characterization of Evolutionarily Conserved Trypanosoma cruzi NatC and NatA-N-Terminal Acetyltransferase Complexes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03-06)Protein N-terminal acetylation is a co- and posttranslational modification, conserved among eukaryotes. It determines the functional fate of many proteins including their stability, complex formation, and subcellular ... -
Characterization of hARD2, a processed hARD1 gene duplicate, encoding a human protein N-α-acetyltransferase
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2006-04-25)Background: Protein acetylation is increasingly recognized as an important mechanism regulating a variety of cellular functions. Several human protein acetyltransferases have been characterized, most of them catalyzing ... -
Characterization of insertion variants of the carboxyl-ester lipase (CEL) gene - A role in pancreatic disease?
(Master thesis, 2018-06-26)Carboxyl ester lipase (CEL) is a digestive enzyme that is mainly expressed in the acinar cells of the pancreas. The CEL gene is highly polymorphic due to a variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) region in the last exon. ... -
Characterization of NAA10 mutations in patients exhibiting phenotypes associated with N-terminal acetylation deficiency
(Master thesis, 2018-12-19)Approximately 80% of the proteins found in human cells are acetylated on their N-terminus, either partially or completely, by a group of enzymes called N-terminal acetyltransferases (NATs)^1. To date, seven NATs, NatA-NatF^2–7 ... -
Characterization of Not homeobox genes during development in Nematostella vectensis
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01) -
Characterization of Nuclear Respiratory Factor 1 using transgenic zebrafish
(Doctoral thesis, 2006-12-01)Nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1) is a transcription factor essential for the embryonic development of vertebrates. The zebrafish mutant nrf is characterized by apoptotic photoreceptor death during embryogenesis followed ... -
Characterization of Pseudoterranova ceticola (Nematoda: Anisakidae) larvae from meso/bathypelagic fishes off Macaronesia (NW Africa waters)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The genus Pseudoterranova includes parasite species of cetaceans and pinnipeds. The third stage larva (L3) of seal-infecting species occur in second intermediate or paratenic fish hosts mainly in neritic waters. This study ... -
Characterization of regulatory T cells in Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome type I, a model disease for autoimmunity
(Master thesis, 2018-12-21)The T and B lymphocytes of the adaptive immune system face the challenge of correctly recognizing antigens originating from a vast number of rapidly evolving pathogens, while ignoring those pertaining to the host itself. ... -
Characterization of Small, Mononuclear Blood Cells from Salmon Having High Phagocytic Capacity and Ability to Differentiate into Dendritic like Cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-11-14)Phagocytes are the principal component of the innate immune system, playing a key role in the clearance of foreign particles that include potential pathogens. In vertebrates, both neutrophils and mononuclear cells like ... -
Characterization of some Kunitz domain containing genes - possible link to Salivary gland
(Master thesis, 2015-10-15)As a hematophagous parasite, anticoagulants are crucial for L. salmonis. In hematophagous animals specific anticoagulants are produced by salivary gland in order to keep the blood liquid and to allow the parasite to process ... -
Characterization of the 18s rRNA gene for designing universal eukaryote specific primers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02-07)High throughput sequencing technology has great promise for biodiversity studies. However, an underlying assumption is that the primers used in these studies are universal for the prokaryotic or eukaryotic groups of interest. ... -
Characterization of the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua L) eggs for estimation of spawning time and proportion of spawning females
(Master thesis, 2011-05-29)A set of eggs from first time spawning Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua L) was investigated for the understanding of variations in egg sizes, e.g. with time in the spawning season, daily inter and intra variations, daily ... -
