Analysis of local DNA structures
Kratochvíl, Jaromír ; Trenz, Oldřich (referee) ; Šťastný, Jiří (advisor)
This diploma thesis is focused on the description and implementation of the user interface for the analysis of local DNA structures as a web application in the Vue.js framework. The local structure can be described as an alternative DNA structure which arises in a specific DNA sequence that occurs in important regions of the genome. The first part of the thesis is theoretical and examines the field of DNA research and a description of selected technologies. The second part deals with the implementation and testing of the user interface on specific DNA sequences.

Bioinformatics of human genome
Kupková, Karolína ; Provazník, Ivo (referee) ; Maděránková, Denisa (advisor)
Bachelor thesis deals with DNA segments containing only adenine and guanine. The theoretical part describes the structure and composition of deoxyribonucleic acid, chromosomes and genes. There are basic informations about chimpanzees and the human genome and conformations of the chains containing adenine with guanine. The practical part consists of a program that searches for the required sections in sequence, it displays and saves it. The thesis includes analysis of genes which are common for humans and chimpanzees, which were analyzed to determine randomness, functionality a preserving of these sections.

Polyphenols in nutritions and their effect on DNA
Osorio, Juan ; Černayová, Diana (referee) ; Brázda, Václav (advisor)
Epidemiologické studie prokázaly vliv konzumace rostlinných potravin v prevenci široké škály nemocí. Přírodní antioxidanty přítomné v těchto potravinách, mezi nimiž jsou velmi důležité polyfenoly, mohou být zodpovědné za tuto činnost podporující zdraví. Cílem bakalářské práce je ukázat interakci určitých polyfenolů s genetickým materiálem prostřednictvím různých signálních mechanismů, zejména pokud jde o stabilizaci nekanonické struktury DNA G-kvadruplex a poukázat tak na nejselektivnější látku pro inhibici biochemických procesy. Dále práce obsahuje podrobné informace, které mohou pomoci pochopit, jak mohou polyfenolové sloučeniny interagovat s DNA prostřednictvím epigenetických mechanismů a G4 struktur, a které faktory mohou ovlivnit jejich účinnost. Různé experimenty, biologickým a experimentálním opakováním, byly použity k potvrzení interakce mezi sloučeninami a DNA.

Localization of Methylation Sites in Transposons
Kmeť, Miroslav ; Martínek, Tomáš (referee) ; Vogel, Ivan (advisor)
This master's thesis deals with the creation of a tool for the extraction of methylation level from transposon sequences. Transposons are DNA elements with ability to move or copy themselves and their activity is regulated by DNA methylation. Sequence methylation information is stored in the bisulfite data and their processing is done with parts of two existing tools in a combination with implemented modules. Created tool takes into consideration unique challenges brought in the methylation calling process by transposable elements and it's functionality is presented on a set of experiments with simulated and real data.

Preparation and purification of plasmid DNAs
Němeček, Milan ; Španová, Alena (referee) ; Rittich, Bohuslav (advisor)
With the development of therapeutic methods in medicine, like are DNA vaccines and gene therapy increases demand for new processes for the isolation and purification highly pure plasmid DNA. Most often used methods of purification plasmid DNA are chromatographic methods. In experimental part of this thesis was performed isolation of plasmid pUC-19 DNA plasmid via alkalyne lysis. And purification of plasmid was performed by liquid chromatography and agarose gel electrophoresis.

Optimalization of PCR-RFLP method for taxonomy of yeasts
Olivová, Radana ; Vadkertiová, Renata (referee) ; Vránová, Dana (advisor)
This thesis deal with optimalization method PCR – RFLP for taxonomy enlistment of yeasts. Conventional identification methods for yeasts are time-consuming. Molecular biological method based on PCR are instrumental towards fast and precise identification as compared to conventional phenotypic methods. In this thesis molecular biological method PCR – RFLP was used for identification and enlistment of yeasts. This metod follow repeating spacers of ribozomal DNA of yeast, characteristic for each species and strain. By the help of PCR were amplified specific partitions of DNA. These fragments of DNA were split by restriction endonucleases and identified by horizontal electroforesis. In background of this thesis there are information about yeasts, their taxonomy and molecular biological methods.

Visualization of Transposons' Genomic Features
Nétková, Barbora ; Bendl, Jaroslav (referee) ; Vogel, Ivan (advisor)
This thesis deals with visualization of transposons' genomic features. The Genomic feature format (GFF) is an input file to visualisation. This type of file has strict definition and it is nowadays a de-facto standard format for genome description. Although there are several tools for GFF visualization, an open source application with advanced visualization features is missing. This work presents a design of such a tool. The application has a graphical user interface to simplify the user's work and combines the advantages of existing commercial products with free access. The application provides simple way to import user's biological data from a GFF file, creates hierarchical tree of individual elements including a detailed internal structure visualization in a subwindow.

Gene order conservation in bacterial genomes
Martinková, Tereza ; Sedlář, Karel (referee) ; Maděránková, Denisa (advisor)
Theoretical part of the thesis deals with basic concepts such as bacterial genome, comparative genomics and mainly synteny blocks. Here is explained what synteny is and what is its importance. In the theoretical part, the GenBank format is also mentioned, its content and usage. The practical part is focused on searching similarities in DNA sequences of reference bacteria with selected bacteria, their sorting by means of greedy algorithm and visualization of similarities using phylogenetic tree.

Finding guanine quadruplexes in DNA using decision trees
Kotrys, Kryštof ; Šťastný, Jiří (referee) ; Kaura, Patrik (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis is focused on creating a functional decision tree model for detection of guanine quadruplexes in the DNA. The first part of the thesis summarizes theoretical knowledge in the fields of local DNA structures, computational prediction methods of guanine quadruplexes and decision trees. The second part describes the creation of a decision tree model, followed by a statistical comparison of the results with the G4Hunter algorithm.
