The human genome was sequenced many years ago and our ~20.000 genes are mostly defined. However, a large portion of our proteins, the products encoded by the genes and involved in all biological processes, remain functionally unexplored. University of Bergen researchers recently solved the structure and function of another uncharacterized human protein that turns out be linked to kidney disease.
Oxygen is vital for human life and so is our ability to respond to low oxygen levels. Researchers at the University of Oxford and University of Bergen have uncovered new factors defining how human cells respond to hypoxia.
Brain calcification can cause movement disorders and cognitive impairment. New research by the Arnesen Lab at UiB provides increased insight into how these calcifications occur.
