Rosselló Tortella, Margalida (Fecha de defensa: 2021-12-09)
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are essential molecules that allow the translation of the genetic code into amino acids. Extensive research during the last 50 years have revealed that, despite their apparently ...
Pérez Salvia, Montserrat (Fecha de defensa: 2019-03-01)
Cancer is considered nowadays a genetic and epigenetic disease. Aberrancies in epigenetic marks in DNA and histone tails together with alterations in epigenetic regulators responsible of catalyzing ...

The transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) is a cytokine involved in many physiological and pathological processes. Its dual role has been described in the liver, where it can either induce pro- or ...
Duran Ferrer, Martí (Fecha de defensa: 2020-11-19)
The DNA from our cells carries the genetic information to build a human being. This information is interpreted through epigenetic marks that lead to tightly coordinated and cell type-specific gene ...
Oliveira Mateos, Cristina (Fecha de defensa: 2020-06-16)
The vast majority of the human genome is transcribed giving rise to non-coding RNAs. Antisense transcripts are one of the most abundant types of long non-coding RNAs and many of them have regulatory ...
Nadeu Prat, Ferran (Fecha de defensa: 2020-09-23)
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common form of adult leukemia in Western countries. Although the disease might follow an indolent course, it rapidly progresses in a fraction of cases, ...
Barrios Barri, Oriol de (Fecha de defensa: 2017-02-03)
The members of ZEB family of transcription factors (ZEB1 and ZEB2) are widely known for its role in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a highly relevant process during development and tumor ...
Ortiz Barahona, Vanessa (Fecha de defensa: 2022-04-01)
The general aim of this thesis is to identify and characterize if there are DNA methylation patterns giving rise to cancer-related m5C RNA modification defects, potentially promoting malignant transformation ...
Ahumada Brena, David Ricardo (Fecha de defensa: 2021-07-09)
[eng] Mammalian Inhibitor-of-kappa-B (IκBs) proteins exert their main function as negative regulators of NF-κB, a central signaling pathway controlling immunity and inflammation. An alternative chromatin ...
Boix Sánchez, Olga (Fecha de defensa: 2022-10-11)
[eng] Recent advances in computational analyses, peptidomics and ribosome profiling have revealed that many regions previously annotated as non-coding are in fact translated into a myriad of bioactive ...
