Computer Modelling Studies On DNA Triple Helices
(2013-07-22) -
In Silico Perspectives on RNA Structures Modulating Viral Gene Expression and Mechanics of tRNA Transport
(2018-07-19)The repertoire of cellular functions mediated by Ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules have expanded considerably during the last two decades. The role played by RNA in controlling and regulating gene expression in ... -
Intrinsic Versus Induced Variations In DNA Structure
(2011-07-18)The binding of different proteins involved in processes such as transcription, replication and chromatin compaction to regions of the genome is regulated by the structure of DNA. Thus, DNA structure acts as the crucial ... -
Promoter Prediction In Microbial Genomes Based On DNA Structural Features
(2013-02-25)Promoter region is the key regulatory region, which enables the gene to be transcribed or repressed by anchoring RNA polymerase and other transcription factors, but it is difficult to determine experimentally. Hence an ... -
The Role of DNA Structural Features of Eukaryotic Promoter Sequences in Transcription Regulation
(2018-09-04)Understanding the molecular structure of DNA was considered as greatest achievement in modern biology. It helped in understanding fundamental cellular processes such as replication of DNA, nature of the ... -
Secondary Structures in Proteins : Identification and Analyses
(2018-07-12)Proteins are large biomolecules consisting of one or more long chains of amino acid residues. They perform a vast array of functions within living organisms. In this thesis, we present analyses of different secondary ... -
Sequence And Structural Determinants of Helices in Membrane Proteins
(2017-09-23)Membrane proteins roughly constitute 30% of open reading frames in a genome and form 70% of current drug targets. They are classified as integral, peripheral membrane proteins and polypeptide toxins. α-helices and β -strands ... -
Structural and Conformational Feature of RNA Duplexes
(2017-11-17)In recent years, several interesting biological roles played by RNA have come to light. Apart from their known role in translation of genetic information from DNA to protein, they have been shown to act as enzymes as well ... -
Structural Feature of Prokaryotic Promoters and their Role in Gene Expression
(2018-05-14)Transcription initiation is an important step in the process of gene regulation in prokaryotes. Promoters are stretches of DNA sequence that are present in the upstream region of transcription start sites (TSSs), where RNA ... -
Structure Function Studies Of Biologically Important Simple Repetitive DNA Sequences
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-03-09)The recent explosion of DNA sequence information has provided compelling evidence for the following facts. (1) Simple repetitive sequences-microsatellites and minisatellites occur commonly in the human genome and (2) these ... -
Synergistic Influence of Gene Architecture and Promoter Structure on Transcription in Plants : An in silico Analysis
Understanding the structural organisation of genome and insightful information of gene has helped in exploring the regulation and expression of the gene at a molecular and cellular level. In eukaryotes, the gene regulation ...
