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 ...
Cell Surface Of Mycobacterium Smegmatis At The Stationary Phase : Regulation Of Gene Expression
(2009-05-21)
Tuberculosis remains one of the oldest diseases known to mankind but still persists as a very major risk. Discovery of several antimycobacterials was marked by a steady decline in the active cases of pulmonary tuberculosis. ...
Structural Studies On Mycobacterium Smegmatis Dps Molecules
(2010-02-22)
Oxidative stress is a universal phenomenon experienced by both aerobic and anaerobic organisms. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated during the stress, which can damage most cellular components including proteins, ...
Stringent Response In Mycobacteria: Molecular Dissection Of Rel
(2007-11-29)
Adaptation to any undesirable change in the environment dictates the survivability of many microorganisms. Such changes generate a quick and suitable response, which guides the physiology of bacteria. Stringent response ...
Dissecting the C-DI-GMP Signaling Pathways : Tools and Tales
(2018-02-27)
Evaluating aerodynamic noise from aircraft engines is a design stage process, so that it conform to regulations at airports. Aerodynamic noise is also a principal source of structural vibration and internal noise in ...
Expanding The Horizon Of Mycobacterial Stress Response : Discovery Of A Second (P)PPGPP Synthetase In Mycobacterium Smegmatis
(2015-12-21)
The stringent response is a highly conserved physiological response mounted by bacteria under stress (Ojha and Chatterji, 2001; Magnusson et al., 2005; Srivatsan and Wang, 2007; Potrykus and Cashel, 2008). Until recently, ...
Molecular Characterization c-di-GMP Signalling In Mycobacterium Smegmatis
(2014-07-17)
Bacterial stationary phase is an interesting biological system to study, as the organism undergoes several metabolic changes during this period and new molecules are generated to support its survival. The stationary phase ...
Biochemical, Biophysical and Evolutionary Perspectives of Zinc Finger Proteins in Mycobacterium smegmatis
(2018-05-21)
Transcription is a major step in expression of genes of a given organism. Due to environmental constrains this step must be regulated in the favour of the sustenance and growth of the organism. Here comes the relevance of ...
