• Association of a BACE1 gene polymorphism with Parkinson’s disease in a Norwegian population 

      Lange, Johannes; Lunde, Kristin Aaser; Sletten, Camilla Johanne; Møller, Simon Geir; Tysnes, Ole-Bjørn; Alves, Guido; Larsen, Jan Petter; Maple-Grødem, Jodi (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-11)
      Background . Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) share pathological features, including amyloid-beta pathology. Amyloid-beta peptide is generated by sequential proteolysis of amyloid precursor protein ...
    • Combinatory microRNA serum signatures as classifiers of Parkinson's disease 

      Patil, Ketan S.; Basak, Indranil; Dalen, Ingvild; Hoedt, Esthelle; Lange, Johannes; Lunde, Kristin Aaser; Liu, Ying; Tysnes, Ole-Bjørn; Forsgren, Lars; Aarsland, Dag; Neubert, Thomas A.; Larsen, Jan Petter; Alves, Guido Werner; Møller, Simon Geir (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-04)
      As current clinical diagnostic protocols for Parkinson's disease (PD) may be prone to inaccuracies there is a need to identify and validate molecular biomarkers, such as circulating microRNAs, which will complement current ...
    • Downregulation of N-terminal acetylation triggers ABA-mediated drought responses in Arabidopsis 

      Linster, Eric; Stephan, Iwona; Bienvenut, Willy V.; Maple-Grødem, Jodi; Myklebust, Line Merethe; Huber, Monika; Reichelt, Michael; Sticht, Carsten; Møller, Simon Geir; Meinnel, Thierry; Arnesen, Thomas; Giglione, Carmela; Hell, Rüdiger; Wirtz, Markus (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-07)
      N-terminal acetylation (NTA) catalysed by N-terminal acetyltransferases (Nats) is among the most common protein modifications in eukaryotes, but its significance is still enigmatic. Here we characterize the plant NatA ...
    • Molecular Characterization of the Plastid-localized ABC Protein TAP1 in Arabidopsis thaliana 

      Hempel, Jan Johansen (PhD thesis UiS;375, Doctoral thesis, 2018-01)
      The two TAP-like genes, AtTAP1 and AtTAP2, belong to the ABC transporter superfamily of Arabidopsis. AtTAP2/ALS1 has been shown to be important for aluminum metabolism and tolerance, however, little is known about the ...
