(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2004-09-21)
      Methanotrophs are ubiquitous bacteria that can use the greenhouse gas methane as a sole carbon and energy source for growth, thus playing major roles in global carbon cycles, and in particular, substantially reducing ...
    • The Human N-Alpha-Acetyltransferase 40 (hNaa40p/ hNatD) Is Conserved from Yeast and N-Terminally Acetylates Histones H2A and H4 

      Hole, Kristine; Van Damme, Petra; Dalva, Monica; Aksnes, Henriette; Glomnes, Nina; Varhaug, Jan Erik; Lillehaug, Johan; Gevaert, Kris; Arnesen, Thomas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-09-15)
      Protein Na-terminal acetylation (Nt-acetylation) is considered one of the most common protein modification in eukaryotes, and 80-90% of all soluble human proteins are modified in this way, with functional implications ...
    • Identification and characterization of retinoblastoma gene mutations disturbing apoptosis in human breast cancers 

      Berge, Elisabet Ognedal; Knappskog, Stian; Geisler, Stephanie; Staalesen, Vidar; Pacal, Marec; Børresen-Dale, Anne-Lise; Puntervoll, Pål; Lillehaug, Johan; Lønning, Per Eystein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-07-01)
      Background The tumor suppressor pRb plays a key role regulating cell cycle arrest, and disturbances in the RB1 gene have been reported in different cancer forms. However, the literature reports contradictory findings with ...
    • Massively parallel sequencing identifies a previously unrecognized X-linked disorder resulting in lethality in male infants owing to amino-terminal acetyltransferase deficiency
