Functional and structural studies of proteins involved in telomere maintenance
The linear ends of the eukaryotic chromosomes are protected by a specialized nucleoprotein complex known as telomere. Telomeres consist of telomere DNA and telomere DNA binding proteins (known as shelterin complex). The ... -
Identification, characterization, structure, and assembly of type III toxin-antitoxin systems from Escherichia coli
Bacteria adopt several defense strategies to enable their survival against the environmental threats they encounter from time to time. Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are being understood as a key bacterial defense mechanism ... -
Structural and DNA binding properties of ARID domains present in hSWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex subunits
The SWI/SNF complexes are multisubunit-containing protein complexes that are involved in chromatin-remodeling processes in the eukaryotic cells. In higher eukaryotes, SWI/SNF complexes contain one or more mutually exclusive ... -
Structural insights into assembly and regulation of HigBA toxin-antitoxin system from Escherichia coli
In the last few decades, bacterial Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems have been identified to play crucial roles in bacterial survival under stressful conditions and virulence. TA systems are pair of genetic elements where one ...
