The Role of Self-Recirculating Casing Treatment on Axial Compressor and Its Aeroelastic Behavior
The modern-day axial compressor stages in a gas turbine engine play a vital role in generating the high-pressure ratios by operating at the limits of their design. Aerodynamic instabilities such as rotating stall and surge ... -
Role of Sirt2 in Stress-induced Muscle Atrophy
Skeletal muscle is one of the essential organs in our body, responsible for various functions such as locomotion, transport, protein storage, and thermoregulation. Under certain pathological conditions, there is a reduction ... -
ROLE OF SIRT6 AND PARP-1 IN MUSCLE HOMEOSTASIS
Sirtuins and PARPs are stress responsive family of proteins regulating genome instability, inflammation, aging-related diseases and energy metabolism. Both sirtuins and PARPs are NAD+ enzymes with deacetylase and ADP-ribose ... -
Role of SIRT6 in Myofibroblast Cell Death
(2018-01-10)Cardiovascular diseases are one of the leading causes of mortality. A common denominator across most of the cardiovascular diseases like diabetic cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, myocardial infarction and dilated ... -
Role of SIRT6 in the Regulation of Glucose Metabolism and Fatty Acid Uptake in Heart
The adult heart heavily relies on fatty acid for most of its energy supplies. The heart derives most of the fatty acid from circulation. Hence, fatty acid uptake forms a crucial step in cardiac metabolism. Studies have ... -
Role of SIRT6 in the regulation of mTOR signalling and global protein synthesis
Cells are constantly engaged in the process of making and breaking proteins in a highly organized manner. However, protein synthesis is an energetically expensive process and often competes with other cellular repair and ... -
Role of Sirtuin 2 in the development of tissue fibrosis
Wound healing is a crucial physiological process required for the healthy lifespan of an organism. Dysregulation in the process of wound healing leads to the production of excess extracellular matrix leading to fibrosis. ... -
Role of Sirtuin6 in the maintenance of cardiac lysosomal homeostasis
The response to cardiac stress can be divided into two phases- an initial adaptive compensatory phase followed by a maladaptive decompensatory phase. Protein homeostasis in cardiomyocytes has been observed to behave ... -
Role Of Solid Phase Movement And Remelting On Macrosegregation And Microstructure Formation In Solidificaiton Processing
(2010-08-25)Melt convection and solid phase movement play an important role in solidification processes, which significantly influence the formation of grain structures and solute segregations. In general, the melt convection and grain ... -
Role of spin density and interchromophoric coupling in singlet fission
Singlet exciton fission (SEF) is the transformation of a photoexcited singlet exciton into two triplets localized on two chromophores coupled together. This process therefore produces two triplet excitons at the expense ... -
Role Of Stacking Fault Energy On Texture Evolution In Micro- And Nano-Crystalline Nickel-Cobalt Alloys
(2017-05-24)Plastic deformation of metals and alloys are invariably accompanied by the development of texture. The origin of texture is attributed to the deformation micro-mechanisms associated with processing. The face-centered cubic ... -
Role of subsurface flows in the ignition of liquid fuel pools-a theoretical study
The work is a theoretical study on the ignition of a pool of liquid fuel at subflash temperatures under the action of localized ignition sources. While a few experimental results are available in the literature, no theoretical ... -
Role Of Surface And Inter-particle Spacing On Optical Properties Of Single And Hybrid Nanoparticle Assemblies
(2013-07-03)Optical properties of nanoscopic materials have been intensively perused over last couple of decades due to their tunable optical properties. Recent interests in this field have been mainly focused on the preparation of ... -
Role of TCP transcription factors in seedling development, leaf morphogenesis and senescence in Arabidopsis thaliana
The TCP gene family encodes non-canonical bHLH transcription factors that act as key regulatory molecules in diverse developmental processes in plants including organ morphogenesis, plant architecture, leaf maturation, and ... -
Role of TCP4 Transcription Factor in the Maturation Program of Arabidopsis Life Cycle
(2018-07-28)TCP4 as an integrator of key developmental events A striking aspect of plant life is their sedentary life-style. Though it relieves them of the obligation of forming a complex body organization, it exposes them to ... -
Role of the ELONGATED GYNOPHORE/ELONGATA2 Protein in Fruit and Root Development in Arabidopsis Thaliana
(2018-06-23)In order to identify new players in fruit development, a forward genetic screen was performed on EMS mutagenized plants. A mutant named elongated gynophore (egy) was identified in the M2 population based on altered fruit ... -
Role of the miR319-JAW-TCP module in the growth and development of the female reproductive organ in Arabidopsis thaliana
Named after their founding members TEOSINTE BRANCHED1, CYCLOIDEA, and PROLIFERATING CELL FACTORs, the TCP transcription factors have been investigated for their diverse role in plant growth and development. The five ... -
Role of the unstructured N-terminal region and interacting proteins on the function of Mycobacterium tuberculosis σA
A distinctive feature of the bacterial RNA polymerase is the modular organization. The core of this enzyme, comprised of a dimer of the α subunit assembles with the β, β', and ω subunit. The core RNA polymerase enzyme ... -
Role of VILAMBIT Genes Controlling Flowering Time and Jasmonic Acid Signaling in Arabidopsis
(2018-08-14)The transition to flowering is an important decision for plants since seed-setting and the survival of the progeny depend on the environmental conditions prevalent during this transition. Therefore, to ensure maximum ... -
