Biochemical And Molecular Insights Into β-Hydroxyacyl-Acyl Carrier Protein Dehydratase (FabZ) From Plasmodium Falciparum
(2008-10-14)Malaria, caused by Plasmodium, is one of the most devastating infectious diseases of the world in terms of mortality as well as morbidity (WHO, 2002). The development of resistance in the Plasmodium falciparum against the ... -
Biochemical and structural studies to provide insights into initiator tRNA delivery by eIF2A in noncanonical translation initiation
Eukaryotic initiation factor 2A (eIF2A), a non-canonical translation initiation factor, delivers initiator tRNA (tRNAi) onto the 40S ribosomal subunit in a codon-dependent and GTP-independent manner, unlike the canonical ... -
Biochemical Characterization Of An Acid-Adaptive Type III DNA Methyltransferase From Helicobacter Pylori 26695 And Its Biological Significance
(2014-12-15)Enzyme DNA methylation is an important biochemical process that imprints DNA with additional information. DNA methylation is catalyzed by S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet)-dependent methyltraferases (MTases). Prokaryotic ... -
Biochemical Characterization Of Heat Shock Protein 90 From Plasmodium Falciparum
(2013-06-07)Molecular chaperones are a group of proteins which maintain cellular homeostasis by assisting de novo protein folding and their refolding to native state after destabilization due to external stress. They are also known ... -
Biochemical Characterization Of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mre11/Rad50/Xrs2 Using Telomeric DNA : A Role For The Endonucleolytic Activity Of Mre11 In Telomere Length Maintenance And Its Regulation By Rad50
(2009-05-15)Meiotic recombination is a prerequisite for exchange of genetic information in all Sexually reproducing organisms. This process is initiated by the formation of double stranded breaks (DSBs) in DNA followed by homology ... -
Biochemical characterization of UvrD helicase and its 1 interplay with DNA mismatch repair proteins in 2 Neisseria gonorrhoeae
UvrD helicase belongs to type I superfamily of helicases. It participates in Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) and DNA Mismatch Repair (MMR). It also participates in the rolling circle replication. It has been shown that ... -
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 ... -
Biochemical, Genetic and Molecular characterization of TCP3 and TCP4 transcription factors in Arabidopsis thaliana
The TEOSINTE BRANCHED1, CYCLOIDEA, PROLIFERATING CELL FACTORs (TCP) family of proteins consists of plant-specific, non-canonical basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors that perform diverse developmental processes. ... -
Biodegradable Polymers for Drug Delivery and Tissue Engineering
(2018-06-29)Regeneration, a spontaneous response of bones in response to injuries, infections and fractures, is severely compromised in certain clinical circumstances. Unfortunately, several shortcomings are associated with the current ... -
Biodegradation Of 1-Naphthoic Acid
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-06)Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are compounds containing carbon and hydrogen atoms of fused benzene rings in linear, angular or cluster arrangements. These compounds have a large (negative) resonance energy, resulting ... -
Biodiesel from Estuarine Microalgae - Diatoms
Rapidly depleting fossil fuel reserves with the burgeoning demand, associated escalating GHG footprint, and changes in the climate necessitated the exploration of alternate sustainable energy resources that are renewable, ... -
Bioengineering strategies to model and modulate immune cells
Optimal activation of immune cells is necessary to elicit a protective response against pathogens and foreign objects. In dysregulated immune systems, cells are aberrantly activated or exhausted. Understanding biochemical ... -
Biofilm Reactors for Greywater Treatment
Greywater (GW) is the fraction of wastewater discharged in houses that has not been contaminated with faeces. The average volumes of greywater generated in the households of Bengaluru varies between 40-70 litres/cap/day ... -
Biogeography and comparative phylogeography of freshwater snails of India
Distribution of flora and fauna is shaped by both current and historical processes. In my thesis I concentrated on how the historical component of the governing processes have dictated the current distribution of biota. ... -
Bioinspiration for battling bacteria: Nature inspired high aspect ratio nanostructures for new age antibacterial surfaces
Bacterial colonization and biofilm formation on abiotic surfaces effectuate corrosion, fermentation, and infection resulting in tremendous economic and human losses each year. Aggravating the situation, new multi-drug ... -
