Fabrication and Characterization of Nanostructured Antibacterial Surfaces
Bacterial antibiotic resistance is becoming wide spread due to the excessive and unregulated use of antibiotics in healthcare and agriculture. At the same time the development of new antibiotics has become slow. Adding ... -
How Much Initiator tRNA Does Escherichia Coli Need?
(2017-11-27)The work discussed in this thesis deals with the significance of initiator tRNA gene copy number in Escherichia coli. A summary of the relevant literature discussing the process of protein synthesis, ... -
Influence Of FtsH Protease On The Medial FtsZ Ring In Escherichia Coli
(2013-07-17)FtsH is an essential AAA family Zn++ metalloprotease of Escherichia coli, possessing ATPase-dependent chaperon activity and ATP-dependent protease activity. Heat shock transcription factor Sigma32, LpxC, SecY, and bacteriophage ... -
Investigations On The Role Of The Global Regulator H-NS In The Survival Of Escherichia Coli In Stationary-Phase
(2015-08-17)Studies on stationary phase cultures of microorganisms in the laboratory have helped us understand the genetic and physiological basis of adaptation in their natural habitats. Stasis or decline in bacterial populations due ... -
Metabolism Of Queuosine, A Modified Nucleoside, In Escherichia Coli And Caenorhabditis Elegans And Dual Function Of Bovine Mitochondrial Initiation Factor 2 As Initiation Factors 1 And 2 In Escherichia Coli
(2009-06-29)The studies reported in this thesis address firstly, the biology of a modified nucleoside, Queuosine (Q) and secondly, the properties of mitochondrial translation initiation factor 2. A summary of the relevant literature ... -
Solution NMR Studies Of E.Coli Acetohydroxy Acid Synthase (AHAS) I
(2010-04-13)Branched chain amino acids are classified as essential amino acids since their biosynthetic routes or pathways are restricted only to micro-organisms, fungi and plants. Given their unique distribution, the enzymes of the ... -
A Study On The Mechanism Of Initiator tRNA Selection On The Ribosomes During Translation Initiation And Rescue Of The Stalled Ribosomes By SsrA In Escherichia Coli
(2013-02-07)The studies reported in this thesis describe the work done in the area of translation initiation where a previously unknown role of multiple copies of initiator tRNA in E. coli has been reported. Also the role of SsrA ...
