Characterization Of Down Regulated Genes In Astrocytoma
(2011-07-27)Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors and include astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas and oligoastrocytomas. Astrocytomas have a high frequency of occurrence as compared to the other gliomas and several studies ... -
Epigenetic Regulators Of Development In The Social Amoeba Dictyostellium Discoideum : The Roles Played By Histone Deacetylases And Heat Shock Protein 90
(2011-01-20)The major evolutionary transition from single-celled to multicellular life is believed to have occurred independently of the main metazoan lineages in the cellular slime moulds, of which Dictyostelium discoideum is the ... -
Exploring the Evolution of Cellobiose Utilization in Shigella Sonnei And the Conservation of ChbG Orthologs in Eukaryotes
(2017-10-11)The chb operon constitutes the genes essential for utilization of chitooligosaccharides in Escherichia coli and related species. The six genes of the operon code for a transcriptional regulator (ChbR) of the operon, a ... -
Expression Profiling Of Genes Regulated By TGF-β : Role Of Multiple Signaling Pathways
(2009-05-12)Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is the proto-type member of a super family of secreted proteins comprised of several structurally related, but functionally divergent proteins like the BMP, activin, inhibin, mullerian ... -
Human Spermatogenesis : Differential Gene Expression And Regulation
(2010-08-24)Spermatogenesis is a complex process of male germ cell development in which the diploid spermatogonia undergo series of mitotic divisions and differentiation steps culminating into the preleptotene spermatocytes which then ... -
Identification Of Key DNA Elements Involved In promoter Recognition By Mxr1p , A key Regulator Of Methanol Utilisation Pathway In Pichia Pastoris
(2010-04-09)The methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris is widely used for recombinant protein production due to its ability to grow to high cell densities as well as possession of an inducible methanol utilization pathway (MUT). The ... -
Studies On Polypyrimidine Tract Binding Protein : Identification Of Interacting Partners
(2010-03-26)PTB (HnRNP I) is a multifunctional RNA binding protein which participates in a variety of RNA metabolic processes put together called as post transcriptional gene regulation. It interacts with shuttling hnRNPs L, K and E2 ... -
Transcriptional Analysis Of The Principal Cell Division Gene ftsZ Of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis And Mycobacterium Smegmatis
(2009-03-04)The success of Mycobacterium tuberculosis as a pathogen is due to its remarkable ability to: (i). adapt to and survive inside activated macrophages under nonproliferating condition, (ii). put up drug resistance ... -
Transcriptional Regulation And The Role Of Galactose Metabolism In The Virulence Of Candida Albicans
(2009-06-24)Candida albicans, a commensal of gastrointestinal and uro-vaginal tract can cause superficial as well as life threatening disseminated infections under conditions of lowered immunity of the host such as HIV infection, ...
