La mutagenèse dirigée est un outil indispensable à toute étude microbiologique, car elle permet d’identifier le rôle de certains locus génétiques identifiés comme acteurs potentiels dans des contextes précis. Cependant, les protocoles de mutagenèse dirigée sont longs et laborieux, et leur mise en œuvre est l’un des points limitants en recherche. L’émergence de CRISPR-Cas9 (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) comme outil moléculaire a permis d’accélérer et de faciliter ces procédures de mutagenèse par contre-sélection. La limite de ces protocoles se situe dans la régénération de l’espaceur effectuant la contre-sélection. Notre plateforme CRISPR, dénommée Horus, offre une solution à cette limitation. Elle utilise du clonage in vivo afin de raccourcir autant la durée que la charge de travail du protocole, pour aboutir à l'obtention de mutants en une seule étape. Pour se faire nous avons conçu in silico un ARN guide synthétique capable d’agir comme un interrupteur génétique (porte logique ET) et de performer une contre sélection (discriminant les bactéries de types sauvages des mutants) via le système CRISPR-Cas9. / Site-directed mutagenesis is an essential tool for any microbiological study because it makes it possible to identify the role of certain loci identified as potential actors in specific contexts. However, site-directed mutagenesis protocols are long and laborious, and their implementation is one of the limiting points of research. The emergence of CRISPR-Cas9 (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) as a molecular tool has accelerated the facilitation of these counter-selection mutagenesis protocols. The limitation of these protocols lies in the regeneration of the protospacer mediating the counter selection. Our CRISPR platform, called Horus (HOmologuous Recombination Using SsDNA), offers a solution to this limitation. It uses in vivo cloning to shorten both the duration and the workload of the protocol, allowing to obtain mutants strains in just one step. To do so, we designed in silico a synthetic guide RNA capable of acting as a genetic switch (AND Gate) and performing counter-selection (discriminating WT bacteria from mutants) via the CRISPR-Cas9 system.

The task of this thesis is to study the subject of perfusion analysis based on dynamic imaging with T2/T2* contrast. The focus was on the acquisition commonly used for DSC-MRI and especially in the acquisition pulse sequences that use images with different echo time, so called Multi-echo sequence. Principles of dynamic measurement by magnetic resonance imaging, the role of contrast agents and their influence on the relaxation times are described. It also describes the problems perfusion analysis, measurement and mathematical modeling parameters entering to the convolution dependency for getting perfusion parametersIn the experimental part is developed automatic algorithm to gain curves relaxation time T2 *. Next, the synthetic data are created and tested robustness estimate perfusion parameters against noise. In the next phase of work there are compared real scanned objects with using a conversion with T2 * and free of T2*. In the last phase of work is compared influence of length of used echo times on concentration curves and after perfusion analysis influence on resulting perfusion parameters.
