Role of Escherichia coli UvrD helicase in resolving G-quadruplex DNA structures
G-quadruplex (G4) secondary structures have been implicated in various biological processes, including gene expression, DNA replication and telomere maintenance. However, unresolved G4 structures impede replication ... -
Role of Mammalian RAD51 Paralogs in Genome Maintenance and Tumor Suppression
(2018-01-28)My research was focused on understanding the importance of mammalian RAD51 paralogs in genome maintenance and suppression of tumorigenesis. The investigation carried out during this study has been addressed toward gaining ... -
Role of mammalian RAD51 paralogs in replication stress response and genome maintenance
The focus of my research has been to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the role of mammalian RAD51 paralogs in genome maintenance and tumor suppression. The investigation carried out during this study has ... -
Role of Mycobacterium tuberculosis DinG and UvrD helicases in unwinding G-quadruplex DNA
Recent studies have demonstrated the role of E. coli UvrD as a replicative helicase that facilitates replication of rolling circle plasmids. Along with dinG and rep helicase, UvrD a so-called “accessory helicase” removes ... -
Role of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis RecG Helicase in DNA Repair, Recombination and in Remodelling of Stalled Replication Forks
(2018-05-14)Tuberculosis, caused by the infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis remained as a major global health challenge with one third of world population being infected by this pathogen. M. tuberculosis can persist for decades ... -
Role of Mycobacterium tuberculosis UvrD1 and UvrD2 helicases in resolving G-quadruplex DNA structures
Unresolved G-quadruplex (G4) DNA secondary structures impede DNA replication and can lead to DNA breaks and to genome instability. Helicases are known to unwind G4 structures and thereby facilitate genome duplication. ... -
Role of RTEL1 helicase in the regulation of homologous recombination during DNA replication
Homologous recombination (HR) plays an essential role in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), replication stress responses, and genome maintenance. Although the mechanism of HR has been extensively studied in the ...
