Computational Investigation of Heterogeneous Lateral Organisation in Biological Membrane
The study of lateral heterogeneity on membrane surface has come a long way from the fluid
mosaic model. Simulations and experimental studies have observed non-random mixing of
lipids and proteins in the membrane. In this ...
Functional and structural studies of proteins involved in telomere maintenance
The linear ends of the eukaryotic chromosomes are protected by a specialized nucleoprotein complex known as telomere. Telomeres consist of telomere DNA and telomere DNA binding proteins (known as shelterin complex). The ...
Network Heterogeneities, Intrinsic Plasticity and Decorrelation in the Dentate Gyrus
A central premise for research in neuroscience is to mechanistically decipher the physiological roles of the brain in effectuating learning and memory. The tripartite framework that is at the core of learning and memory ...
Design of soluble and particulate immunogens derived from the stem of Influenza hemagglutinin
Influenza is a highly contagious virus, belonging to the family Orthomyxoviridae that causes
acute febrile respiratory illness which can be fatal in some cases. The highest risk groups for
influenza viral infection ...
Use of sub-family specific residues of protein modules in recognizing sites of functional and structural specialization
Functional and regulatory features of a protein in a living system are determined by several factors
such as chemical nature and three-dimensional arrangement of residues in the functional site, spatial
and temporal ...
Use of strategically designed protein-like sequences in structure and function recognition
The advent of high fidelity protein sequencing techniques has led to a considerable wealth
of sequence data. However, the number of proteins with information on 3-D structure and
functional features available is considerably ...
Computational studies on interacting proteins with special reference to toxin-antitoxin systems
Proteins interact with other proteins to maintain functional homeostasis of the cell by tightly regulating cellular processes. Hence, it becomes important to understand not only the downstream effects of protein-protein ...
Structural and DNA binding properties of ARID domains present in hSWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex subunits
The SWI/SNF complexes are multisubunit-containing protein complexes that are involved in chromatin-remodeling processes in the eukaryotic cells. In higher eukaryotes, SWI/SNF complexes contain one or more mutually exclusive ...
Multi-faceted modular interactions in proteins
All living systems are composed of plethora of biomolecules. There are various types of
biomolecules such as proteins, DNA, RNA, carbohydrates and metabolites. All the
reactions in a biological system involve interactions ...
HIV-1 and SARS-CoV-2 immunogen design
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1) is the aetiologic agent of AIDS. Presently there are ~38 million HIV-1 infected individuals worldwide and ~1 million deaths in 2019. Since its discovery, the quest for vaccine candidate ...
