Proteomics-based Identification of Serum Biomarkers : Role of Secreted MCSF and CRP in Glioma Pathogenesis
Gliomas are the neoplasia of glial cells present in the brain and comprises of more than 70% of all the neoplasms of the central nervous system. They consist of a family of primary brain tumors that are categorized based ... -
PSD95 as a biophysical modulator of synaptic communication
PSD95 is a core scaffold protein of the postsynaptic density (PSD) at excitatory synapses and a member of the MAGUK family, where it plays a central role in organizing glutamate receptors, ion channels, and signalling ... -
Pseudo-periodic oscillatory dependence of rat brain voltage gated sodium channel properties on prior depolarization, studied using whole cell patch clamp, wavelet analysis and single neuron simulation
Neuronal excitability is mediated by ion-selective transmembrane ion channels, through which ions are transported in response to changes in membrane potential. In particular, the rising phase of the action potential is ... -
Purification , active site interactions and partial primary structure of serine hydroxymethyltransferase from seedlings of trigonella foenum graecum
SHMT catalyzes the conversion of Ser to Gly by the transfer of a hydroxymethyl group to H?-folate to yield 5,10-CH?-H?-folate. This compound serves as a carrier of one-carbon units for the biosynthesis of a number of ... -
Purification and characterization of an acid protease from germinated sorghum (Sorghum Vulgare)

Purification, kinetic mechanism and regulation of nitrate reductase from candida utilis
Nitrate is a major source of inorganic nitrogen utilized by most plants, some algae, fungi, and a variety of bacteria. This fundamental biological process of nitrate assimilation in most systems involves the reduction of ... -
Qualitative similarities and differences between monkey and human visual perception
Animal models play a crucial role in helping neuroscientists unravel the computations supporting behaviour at the resolution of a single neuron in the brain. In vision science, the macaque monkey is the pre-eminent model ... -
Queen Succession in the Primitively Eusocial Wasp Ropalidia Marginata
(2018-01-04)Social insects are the most dominant terrestrial fauna for the last 50 million years. This tremendous ecological success is accompanied by the fact that sociality has evolved multiple times independently and achieved highest ... -
Queens And Their Succerssors : The Story Of Power In The Primitively Eusocial Wasp Ropalidia Marginata
(2009-04-30)Ropalidia marginata is characterized as a primitively eusocial wasp due to the absence of morphological differentiation between the queen and worker castes. Unlike other primitively eusocial wasps, however, the queen in ... -
Racemases in Salmonella : Insights into the Dexterity of the Pathogen
(2018-02-27)Chapter -I Introduction Salmonella is a pathogen well-known for its ability to infect a wide variety of hosts and causes disease ranging from mild gastroenteritis to typhoid fever. During infection, it is exposed to a ... -
Rational Elicitation of Cold Sensitive Phenotypes
Conditional gene expression and conditional mutants provide a means to modulate the expression of specific genes and to control the activity of their protein products in vivo, so as to be able to study their effects on the ... -
Receptor Guanylyl Cyclase C Cross-talk With Tyrosine Kinases And The Adaptor Protein, Crk
(2009-03-06)Signal transduction is a crucial event that enables cells to sense and respond to cues from their immediate environment. Guanylyl cyclase C (GC-C) is a member of the family of receptor guanylyl cyclases. GC-C is a single ... -
Regulation and Characterization of Transcription Factor Activator Protein-2 Alpha (AP-2α)
(2018-02-11)Introduction AP2α is a 52 kDa retinoic acid inducible and developmentally regulated activator of transcription, which binds to the DNA in a sequence-specific manner. Transcription factor AP-2α was isolated from HeLa cells ... -
Regulation of auxin response by UBIQUITIN-SPECIFIC PROTEASE14/ TARANI in Arabidopsis thaliana
The genetic pathway regulating auxin response in Arabidopsis is well established and provides us a framework to assess whether TNI belongs to this pathway. The total number of lateral roots is taken as a read-out of auxin ...
