Starvation Response In Mycobacterium Smegmatis : A Tale Of Two Proteins
(2010-10-19)
The Dps (DNA-Binding Protein from Starved Cells) proteins are a class of stress-specific proteins with a major role in protecting DNA during the stationary phase of bacterial growth, through direct physical binding as well ...
Computational Analyses Of Proteins Encoded In Genomes Of Pathogenic Organisms : Inferences On Structures, Functions And Interactions
(2015-02-04)
The availability of completely sequenced genomes for a number of organisms provides an opportunity to understand the molecular basis of physiology, metabolism, regulation and evolution of these organisms. Significant ...
Structure Analysis Of Plant Lectin Domains
(2014-04-07)
Lectins are multivalent carbohydrate binding proteins that specifically recognise diverse sugar structures and mediate a variety of biological processes, such as cell-cell and host-pathogen interactions, serum glycoprotein ...
Translational Control Of p53 And Its Isoform By Internal Initiation
(2010-07-19)
Tumor suppressor p53, the guardian of the genome, has been intensely studied molecule owing to its central role in maintaining cellular integrity. While the level of p53 protein is maintained low in unstressed conditions, ...
Computational And Experimental Studies On Protein Structure, Stability And Dynamics
(2014-08-18)
The work in this thesis focuses on the study of three main aspects of proteins, viz, Protein structure, stability, and dynamics. Chapter 1 is a general introduction to the topics studied in this thesis. Chapter 2 deals ...
Implications of Soluble Diacylglycerol Acyltransferases in Triacylglycerol Biosynthesis in Yeast and Plants
(2018-04-12)
Lipids are stored in a cell for providing energy. The main advantages of storing lipids over carbohydrates like glycogen is that, lipids yield more energy after oxidation because they represent the highly reduced form of ...
