Complete mutation screening and haplotype characterization of the BRCA1 gene in 61 familial breast cancer patients from NorwayPetter Frost
Center for Medical Genetics and Molecular Medicine, Haukeland University Hospital, N 5021 Bergen, Norway
Dis Markers 21:29-36. 2005..No such alterations were found among the healthy blood donors but association studies of the 5'UTR variations within the respective families were not conclusive...
Characterisation of two vitellogenins in the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis: molecular, functional and evolutional analysisSussie Dalvin
Institute of Marine Research, 5817 Bergen, Norway
Dis Aquat Organ 94:211-24. 2011..In conclusion, our results confirm the role of vitellogenins in reproduction as providers of embryonic and larval nutrition...
A trypsin-like protease with apparent dual function in early Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Krøyer) developmentRasmus Skern-Mauritzen
Department of Population Genetics and Ecology, Institute of Marine Research, Bergen 5817, Norway
BMC Mol Biol 10:44. 2009..Trypsin like peptidases considered to be involved in digestion have been characterized in Lepeophtheirus salmonis. During these studies a trypsin-like peptidase which differed in a number of traits were identified...
Functional characterisation of the maternal yolk-associated protein (LsYAP) utilising systemic RNA interference in the salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) (Crustacea: Copepoda)Sussie Dalvin
Institute of Marine Research, 5817 Bergen, Norway
Int J Parasitol 39:1407-15. 2009..Treatment of adult females with double-stranded RNA led to lethality and deformations of offspring only. This result confirms that the LsYAP protein is produced in adult females but is utilised by the offspring...

Institute of Marine Research, Bergen, Norway
BMC Genomics 9:126. 2008..In order to link unknown transcripts to biological functions we have combined EST sequencing and microarray analysis to characterize female salmon louse transcriptomes during post molting maturation and egg production...
Relative transcript quantification by quantitative PCR: roughly right or precisely wrong?Rasmus Skern
Marine Genome Biology, Institute of Marine Research, N 5817 Bergen, Norway
BMC Mol Biol 6:10. 2005..When estimating relative transcript abundances by quantitative real-time PCR (Q-PCR) we found that the results can vary dramatically depending on the method chosen for data analysis...
Molecular characterisation of five trypsin-like peptidase transcripts from the salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) intestineBjørn Olav Kvamme
Institute of Marine Research, P O Box 1870, Bergen N 5817, Norway
Int J Parasitol 34:823-32. 2004..Our findings support earlier suggestions for the function of the midgut cells and suggest the existence of an additional undifferentiated cell-type...
