Structure-Function Correlations In Aminoacyl tRNA Synthetases Through The Dynamics Of Structure Network
(2010-08-16)Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) are at the center of the question of the origin of life and are essential proteins found in all living organisms. AARSs arose early in evolution to interpret genetic code and are believed ... -
Structure-Function Correlative Studies On The Biochemical Properties (Polymerisation, GTP binding, GTPase) Of Mycobacterial Cytokinetic Protein FtsZ In Vitro
(2010-03-26)FtsZ, the principal cell-division protein, polymerizes in GTP-dependent manner in vitro (Bramhill and Thompson, 1994; Mukherjee and Lutkenhaus, 1994; Rivas et al., 2000). FtsZ polymerization at the mid-cell site of bacterium ... -
Structure-Function Relationships of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Meiosis Specific Hop 1 Protein : Implications for Chromosome Condensation, Pairing and Spore Formation
(2018-03-07)Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division essential for the production of four normal haploid gametes. In early prophase I of meiosis, the intimate synapsis between homologous chromosomes, and the formation of chiasmata, ... -
Structure-Function Studies On Triosephoshate Isomerase From Plasmodium falciparum And Methanocaldococcus jannaschii
(2010-08-16)This thesis describes studies directed towards understanding structure-function relationships of triosephosphate isomerase (TIM), from a protozoan parasite Plasmodium falciparum and a thermophilic archaea Methanocaldococcus ... -
Studies On Cloning And Characterization Of GnRH Receptor From The Pituitary Of Bonnet Monkey (Macaca Radiata) And Functional Studies With The Antiserum To GnRH Receptor
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-11-23)GnRH is a decapeptide hormone, which plays a major role in the process of mammalian reproduction. It is synthesized by the hypothalamus and binds to its cognate receptor on the pituitary, to bring about the release of ... -
Studies on differentiation of mouse GS-2 ES-cells to pancreatic β-islet-like cells and their functional maturation status
Embryonic stem cells (ES-cells) are an excellent source for generating insulin-producing β-islet cells for potential use in the management of diabetes mellitus. Although many protocols have been developed to promote the ... -
Studies On DNA Gyrase From Mycobacteria : Insights Into Its Mechanism Of Action And Elucidation Of Its Interaction With The Transcription Machinery
(2010-09-30)Packaging of genomic DNA by proteins and super coiling into chromatin and chromatin-like structures (in bacteria) influences nearly all nuclear process such as replication, transcription, repair, and recombination. A ... -
Studies On DNA Mismatch Repair Nicking Endonucleases Of Haemophilus Influenzae And Neisseria Gonorrhoeae
(2010-01-01)DNA mismatch repair ensures faithful transmission of genetic material from parents to progeny, which is required for the survival of the organism. The studies on E. coli MMR proteins have formed the basis for the study ... -

Studies On Embryonic Stem Cells From Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein Transgenic Mice : Induction Of Cardiomyocyte Differentiation
(2013-07-17)Genesis of life begins with the fusion of female and male haploid gametes through a process of fertilization leading to the formation of a diploid cell, the zygote. This undergoes successive cleavage divisions forming 2-, ... -
Studies On Endocrine And Behavioral Assessment Of Reproductive Status In Asian Elephants (Elephas Maximus)
(2013-01-16)The Asian elephant (Elephas maximus), a charismatic ‘flagship species’, is threatened by extinction in the wild, and the development of self-sustainable captive populations is a key conservation challenge. A third of the ... -
Studies on exosomal microRNAs and proteins associated with Hepatitis C and Dengue virus induced pathogenesis
Studies on the exosomal microRNAs and proteins associated with Hepatitis C and Dengue virus-induced pathogenesis. Hepatitis C virus and Dengue virus are the group of positive-strand RNA viruses belonging to the family ... -
