Genetic control of Embryonic and Adult muscle development in Drosophila melanogaster by Mlp60A
Many genetic regulatory networks are required to define the overall characters in a living organism. Characters which are necessary for survival in the wild are often canalized, such that despite genetic and environmental ... -
Genetics of Drosophila Indirect Flight Muscles : Unraveling the Roles of Genes Involved in Muscle Development and Function
Myofibrillogenesis is a complex process involving assembly of many structural proteins in an orchestrated spatio-temporal manner to form a highly ordered contractile sarcomeric unit. Mutations in the proteins involved in ... -
Genetics of Glioblastoma: Insights into Biology and Therapy Resistance
The central nervous system contains the neural stem cells which differentiate and give rise to the neurons as well as the glial cells which are non-neuronal in nature and provide support and protection to neurons. Unlike ... -
Genetics of Glioma : Transcriptome and MiRNome Based Approches
(2018-03-26)Glioma, the tumor of glial cells, is one of the common types of primary central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms. Astrocytoma is the most common of all gliomas and originates from astrocytic glial cells. Astrocytoma tumors ... -
Genome-Wide And Structural Analyses Of Protein Kinase Superfamily
(2010-04-12)A signal transduction process refers to chain of highly regulated biochemical steps which results in the transfer of signal in response to a stimulus in the extracellular environment to the intracellular compartments such ... -
Genome-wide and structural analyses of signalling proteins with special reference to protein kinases
The work done in the dissertation involves genome?wide sequence analysis on the Plasmodium falciparum proteins with a broad objective of understanding further the functional diversity and evolution. P. falciparum is one ... -
Genome-wide survey of plasmodium falciparum : prediction of protein function and events occuring in metabolic pathways
The work done in the dissertation involves genome-wide sequence analysis on the Plasmodium falciparum proteins with a broad objective of understanding further the functional diversity and evolution. P. falciparum is one ... -
Genomic organization and expression of Belladonna mottle virus-iowa (Renamed physalis mottle virus)
A majority of plant viruses have positive-sense RNA as their genome. The positive-sense RNA viruses show a wide variation in the organization and expression of their genomes. As the present thesis is concerned with the ... -
Glucose and Lipid Metabolism during Pregnancy and Lactation in Rats : Role of Undercarboxylated Osteocalcin
(2018-02-07)Energy homeostasis is an important physiological mechanism essential for balancingenergy flow through the living systems by managing overall metabolism in the body. Thus, energy homeostasis is under a tight control by means ... -
Glucose-6-Phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in an inbred population : Incidence and nature of the deficiency
A study of human populations has provided fascinating insights into modes of genetic inheritance. The populations, made up of different endogamous groups on the basis of socioeconomic, religious and ethnic differences, ... -
Glycobiological Regulation of Breast Cancer Invasion
Invasiveness of cancer is the predominant reason behind mortality associated with the disease. Although long under active investigation, fundamental aspects of the early steps of cancer invasion and metastasis are still ... -
Glycodelin A : A Novel Immunoregulatory Lectin Of The Female Reproductive Tract : Molecular Mechanism Of GdA-Induced Apoptosis In Activated T Cells
(2010-08-06)Glycodelin is a 162 amino acid secreted glycoprotein classified as a member of the lipocalin (carriers of small hydrophobic molecules) superfamily based on the presence of lipocalin signature motifs in its primary sequence. ... -
Glycodelin A : An apoptogenic lipocalin:Molecular mechanism of immunosuppression by Glycodelin A
Glycodelin (previously known as placental protein 14, progestagen-associated endometrial protein, pregnancy-associated secreted endometrial ?2-globulin, etc.) is a 162 amino acid, glycosylated protein secreted mainly by ... -
Glycodelin-A As The Regulator Of CD8+ T-Lymphocyte Activity : Implications In Primate Pregnancy
(2015-01-02)The ability of our immune system to mount a response against non-self-antigens legitimates the semi-allogenic fetus as a target for maternal immune attack. Yet, in a normal pregnancy the fetus stays well protected due to ... -
gp120 Immunogen Design And Characterization
(2011-10-21)HIV-1 is the causative agent for AIDS and has been a major focus of research for the past two decades. Though there is a combination therapy in place known as the “Highly Active Anti-Retroviral Therapy” (HAART), its ... -
Ground-dwelling arthropods across human land use: Interpreting the spatial and temporal dimensions of beta diversity
This study investigates beta diversity and its partitions to quantify the influence of different processes that drive spatial and temporal variation in ground-dwelling arthropod assemblages. First, ant assemblages across ... -
Guanylyl cyclase C receptor : Regulation by protein kinase C
Guanylyl cyclases are enzymes that catalyze the conversion of magnesium-bound GTP to cGMP. Cyclic GMP then acts as a second messenger to a variety of exogenous and endogenous ligands. Guanylyl cyclases are of two types: ...
