Graduate School for Cellular and Biomedical Sciences (GCB) The Graduate School for Cellular and Biomedical Sciences (GCB) of the University of Bern, jointly administered by the Faculties of Medicine, Science and Vetsuisse, offers structured, experimental research training programs leading to a PhD, MD,PhD, DDS,PhD or DVM,PhD degree
PhD Program - Graduate School for Cellular and Biomedical Sciences (GCB) Students from applied science institutions (Fachhochschule) require minimum 6 0 ECTS and 30-60 ECTS total Minimum 6 0 ECTS (for PhD students and DVM-PhD students) of scientifically oriented courses, of which at least 3 0 ECTS must be lecture courses or book clubs which include a graded examination
RFT1ProteinAffectsGlycosylphosphatidylinositol(GPI) AnchorGlycosylation nositol (GPI) anchor side-chain modification Analysis by immunoblotting, metabolic labeling, and mass spectrometry demonstrated that the major GPI-anchored proteins of T bru-cei procyclic forms have truncated GPI anchor side chains in TbRFT1 null parasites when compared with wild-type cells, a
PhD Program: PhD Specializations - Graduate School for Cellular and . . . As of January 2023, there will be six PhD specialization programs from which to choose: Cardiovascular Research, Cell Migration, Cutting Edge Microscopy, Neuroscience Research, Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine, and Tumor Biology Each specialization is unique
Elimination of GPI2 suppresses glycosylphosphatidylinositol GlcNAc . . . Many eukaryotic cell-surface proteins are post-translationally modified by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) moiety that anchors them to the cell membrane The biosynthesis of GPI anchors is initiated in the endoplasmic reticulum by transfer of GlcNAc from UDP-GlcNAc to phosphatidylinositol
The Gup1 homologue of Trypanosoma brucei is a GPI . . . Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) lipids of Trypanosoma brucei undergo lipid remodelling, whereby longer fatty acids on the glycerol are replaced by myristate (C14:0) A similar process occurs on GPI proteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae where Per1p first deacylates, Gup1p subsequently reacylates the anchor lipid, thus replacing a shorter fatty
RFT1 affects GPI anchor glycosylation. - boris-portal. unibe. ch Analysis by immunoblotting, metabolic labeling and mass spectrometry demonstrated that the major GPI-anchored proteins of T brucei procyclic forms have truncated GPI anchor side chains in TbRFT1 null parasites compared to wild-type cells, a defect that is corrected by expressing a tagged copy of TbRFT1 in the null background
PhD Program: Progress Report - Graduate School for Cellular and . . . When the student emails the progress report with the evaluation of progress report form to the mentor, they must include the GCB in copy, using the info gcb@unibe email address Progress Reports are expected to be submitted beginning one month prior to the application anniversary date up until the application anniversary date, regardless
