Cell- and Genome Size Responses to Different Temperatures in Haptophytes Cell- and genome size responses to different temperatures in haptophytes A long-term experiment study on the algal species Prymnesium kappa and Calyptrosphaera sp Erik Standeren Master Thesis Molecular Biology University of Oslo (UiO) Department of Biosciences Section for Aquatic Biology and Toxicology (AQUA) UNIVERSITY OF OSLO [09 / 2018] II Acknowledgement All the work presented in this master thesis war conducted at the Section for Aquatic Biology and Toxicology (AQUA) at the Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo (UiO) from the period of 1st January, 2017 to 30th September, 2018. But before I start there is quite a few persons that I need to thank. First of all, I took my bachelor at the University of Bergen (UiB) and transferred to Oslo. Secondly, I took my bachelor in Molecular Biology, and when this project is just as much Marine biology, there is a lot of new techniques that I have done throughout this period of work, that I have never been close to doing. There is therefore a lot of people I have to thank. All from friendly students to professors. All the students at Molecular Biology I have met have been really nice and welcoming. There was never a moment when I did not feel included. As I mentioned, there have been a lot of new techniques I had to learn and to help me with that, a lot of friendly professors, and other students and post-docs, never hesitated using some of their free time to give me a hand. The first one I have to give my thanks to is my supervisor, professor Dag Olav Hessen. He is one of the most recognised biologists in Norway, and that for a good reason. He always greets you with a smile and shows a great interest in his students work. He was maybe not the one that helped me the most in respect to laboratory work, but he surely made up with commitment and never hesitated to introduce me to other, both postdocs and professors, that could help me. His passion for his theory was the reason for why I chose this assignment and I never regretted that. My co-supervisor, prof. Bente Edvardsen, also deserve a huge thank. Her knowledge and experience, not only in Flow Cytometry, but also almost anything that had something with algae, has been to great help. Senior Engineer Sissel Brubak was an important person for me to get started. She showed how to create the medium I needed to grow my algae. And autoclaving is an important part of medium-making, and a lot of frustration has been produced with good help of the autoclave which more than not, had some kind of problem. Rita Amundsen, Engineer Roy Falleth and III again, Sissel Brubak, was all important for me, not only to get help when the autoclave did not work, but also to share my frustration. Rita Amundsen also deserve a special gratitude for maintaining and diluting my cultures while I was away on a two-week vacation. Maybe the person I had the most conversation with, was Aqua engineer, Per-Johan Færøvig. Flow Cytometry was the most used method of my thesis, and Færøvig was the one that helped me to become familiarized with the instrument. His “learning by doing” teaching method was really important for me to learn in a way that I actually learned something. I tried doing a lot on my own, but whenever I crashed into a problem-wall, he was quick to give me help and advice. He was also really helpful with the experimental setup and introduced me to the Casy Cell-counter. Dr. Marwa Jalal also deserve some of my gratitude for giving me some important, new insight to my Flow Cytometry preparation and technique. Senior Engineer Berit Kaasa also deserve my thanks for assisting me with the isolation of DNA and showing me the Qubit DNA concentration instrument and stoichiometry (C:N:P) analysis. Jon Bråte and Øyvind Gulbrandsen, and rest of the sequencing team, I thank you for your help with analysing of my data. Assoc. prof. Wenche Eikrem isolated the algae I used during my thesis and she also greatly assisted med to look at the algae in TEM. Postdoc Luka Supraha assisted me with visualizing my algae in SEM. Thank you, both. The last one I have to thank is postdoc Francisco José Bullejos Carrillo. He spent large amounts of his time unselfishly assisting me with Protein, RNA and C:N:P analysis, teaching me new techniques and helping me analyse the results.

The previous re-isolation of this species took place in 1998; at that time the studies of its light- microscopic morphology were limited with the phase contrast optics, and the electron- microscopic data were obtained using the traditional glutaraldehyde fixation, preceded with prefixation and followed by postfixation with osmium tetroxide. In the present paper, we provide modern DIC images of P. annulatum. Using the fixation protocol that includes a mixture of the glutaraldehyde and paraformaldehyde we were able to obtain better fixation quality for this species. We provide some novel details of its locomotive morphology, nuclear morphology, and ultrastructure. The present finding evidence that P. annulatum is a widely distributed species that could be isolated from a variety of freshwater habitats. Key words: amoebae, Polychaos, ultrastructure, Amoebozoa Introduction Amoeba proteus). These amoebae usually have a relatively large size, exceeding hundred of microns, The largest species of naked lobose amoebae they produce broad, thick pseudopodia with (gymnamoebae) – members of the family Amoe- smooth outlines (lobopodia).

Student number: 4597982 Project duration: November 6, 2017 – June 18, 2018 Thesis committee: Prof. dr. ir. Koen Bertels, Q&CE, TU Delft (Supervisor) Dr. ir. Carmen G. Almudever, Q&CE, TU Delft (Daily-supervisor) Dr. Zaid Al-Arz, CE, TU Delft An electronic version of this thesis is available at http://repository.tudelft.nl/. Abstract Fast sequencing and analysis of (microorganism, plant or human) genomes will open up new vistas in fields like personalised medication, food yield and epigenetic research. Current state-of-the-art DNA pattern matching techniques use heuristic algorithms on computing clusters of CPUs, GPUs and FPGAs. With genomic data set to eclipse social and astronomical big data streams within a decade, the alternate computing paradigm of quantum computation is explored to accelerate genome-sequence reconstruction. The inherent parallelism of quantum superposition of states is harnessed to design a quantum kernel for accelerating the search process. The project explores the merger of these two domains and identifies ways to fit these together to design a genome-sequence analysis pipeline with quantum algorithmic speedup. The design of a genome-sequence analysis pipeline with a quantum kernel is tested with a proof-of-concept demonstration using a quantum simulator.

  • Comparative Genomics Supports Sex and Meiosis in Diverse Amoebozoa
    GBE Comparative Genomics Supports Sex and Meiosis in Diverse Amoebozoa Paulo G. Hofstatter1,MatthewW.Brown2, and Daniel J.G. Lahr1,* 1Departamento de Zoologia, Instituto de Biociencias,^ Universidade de Sao~ Paulo, Brazil 2Department of Biological Sciences, Mississippi State University *Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected]. Accepted: October 30, 2018 Data Deposition: Accession numbers are listed on a supplementary table 1, Supplementary Material online, already uploaded. Abstract Sex and reproduction are often treated as a single phenomenon in animals and plants, as in these organisms reproduction implies mixis and meiosis. In contrast, sex and reproduction are independent biological phenomena that may or may not be linked in the majority of other eukaryotes. Current evidence supports a eukaryotic ancestor bearing a mating type system and meiosis, which is a process exclusive to eukaryotes. Even though sex is ancestral, the literature regarding life cycles of amoeboid lineages depicts them as asexual organisms. Why would loss of sex be common in amoebae, if it is rarely lost, if ever, in plants and animals, as well as in fungi? One way to approach the question of meiosis in the “asexuals” is to evaluate the patterns of occurrence of genes for the proteins involved in syngamy and meiosis. We have applied a comparative genomic approach to study the occurrence of the machinery for plasmogamy, karyogamy, and meiosis in Amoebozoa, a major amoeboid supergroup. Our results support a putative occurrence of syngamy and meiotic processes in all major amoebozoan lineages. We conclude that most amoebozoans may perform mixis, recombination, and ploidy reduction through canonical meiotic processes.

  • Chapter 7 Cell Cycles
    Chapter 7 Cell Cycles Figure 7-1 Confocal micrograph of human cells showing the stages of cell division. DNA is stained blue, microtubules stained green and kinetochores stained pink. Starting from the top and going clockwise you see an interphase cell with DNA in the nucleus. In the next cell, the nucleus dissolves and chro- mosomes condense in prophase. The next is prometaphase where micro- tubules are starting to attach, but the chromosomes haven’t aligned. Next is metaphase where the chromosomes are all attached to microtubules and aligned on the metaphase plate. The next two are early and late anaphase, as the chromosomes start separating to their respective poles. Finally there is telophase where the cells are com- pleting division to be two daughter cells. (Flickr-M. Daniels; Wellcome Images- CC BY-NC-ND 2.0) INTRODUCTION ell growth and division is essential to asexual reproduction and the development of multicellular organisms. CThe transmission of genetic information is accomplished in a cellular process called mitosis. This process ensures that at cell division, each daughter cell inherits identical genetic material, i.e. exactly one copy of each chromosome present in the parental cell. An evolutionary adaptation of mitosis lead to a special type of cell di- vision that reduces the number of chromosomes from diploid to haploid: this is meiosis, and is an essential step in sexual reproduction to avoid doubling the number of chromosomes each time progeny are generated through fertilization.

This subseries will consist of original, illustrated, modern manuals on the identification, classification, and general biology of the estuarine and coastal marine plants and animals of the northeastern United States. Manuals will be published at irregular intervals on as many taxa of the region as there afe specialists available to collaborate in their preparation. The manuals are an outgrowth of the widely used "Keys to Marine Invertebrates of the Woods Hole Region," edited by R. I. Smith, published in 1964, and produced under the auspices of the Systematics-Ecology Program, Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole, Mass. Instead of revising the "Woods Hole Keys," the staff of the Systematics-Ecology Program decided to ex­ pand the geographic coverage and bathymetric range and produce the keys in an entirely new set of expanded publications. The "Marine Flora and Fauna of the ~ortheastern United States" is being prepared in collaboration with systematic specialists in the United States and abroad. Each manual will be based primarily on recent and ongoing revisionary systematic research and a fresh examination of the plants and animals.
