Antigenic Determinants Of Chicken Riboflavin Carrier Protein: Structural And Functional Aspects
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-09-01)Investigations detailed in this thesis constitute a part of the continuing programme of research undertaken in our laboratory on the riboflavin carrier protein (RCP) with particular reference to identification and synthesis ... -
Design of Influenza Immunogens by Hemagglutinin (HA) Protein Minimization
(2018-01-31)Influenza virus is a pleiomorphic human pathogen which causes self-limiting respiratory illness lasting one-two weeks in most individuals. However, in immunologically compromised individuals, influenza infection may lead ... -
Design, Biophysical Characterization, and Serum Epitope Mapping of SARS-CoV-2 RBD Vaccine Immunogens
Embargo up to Jan 9, 2026 -
Exploring The Role Of Purinergic Signaling In T Cell Activation
(2013-07-17)Adenosine 5’ triphosphate (ATP) is a molecule central to life for its role as the cellular energy currency, and a purine nucleotide which serves as a building block of RNA. Thus, on the backdrop of an indispensible ... -
Glycodelin A : A Novel Immunoregulatory Lectin Of The Female Reproductive Tract : Molecular Mechanism Of GdA-Induced Apoptosis In Activated T Cells
(2010-08-06)Glycodelin is a 162 amino acid secreted glycoprotein classified as a member of the lipocalin (carriers of small hydrophobic molecules) superfamily based on the presence of lipocalin signature motifs in its primary sequence. ... -
Infection of Human Cell Lines by Japanese Encephalitis Virus : Increased Expression and Release of HLA-E, a Non-classical HLA Molecule
(2018-04-24)Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) causes viral encephalitis in new born and young adults that is prevalent in different parts of India and other parts of South East Asia with an estimated 6000 deaths per year. JEV is a ... -
Insights Into The Contribution Of Hfq In Salmonella Pathogenesis : Possible Role In Immune Evasion And Vaccine Development
(2014-10-07)Chapter I Introduction Salmonellae are facultative Gram-negative intracellular pathogens. Different serovars of it causes a variety of diseases in multiple hosts with different disease outcomes. Salmonella enterica serovar ... -
Role Of Idiotypic Anti-Idiotypic Network In The Sustenance Of Immunological Memory
(2009-05-25)Living amidst a milieu of pathogenic organisms, vertebrates are in constant threat of contracting one or the other disease. As a mechanism of protection against such ‘invasions’, the vertebrate immune system has evolved ... -
Sequence Analysis And Design Of Immunogens From The Stem Domain Of Influenza Hemagglutinin
(2013-07-10)Influenza is an important respiratory pathogen that infects several million people each year. Currently available flu vaccines have to be updated regularly in order to be effective as the virus changes its composition by ... -
Studies On The Mechanisms Involved In Thymic Atrophy During Salmonella Enterica Serovar Typhimurium Infection
(2015-09-04)T lymphocytes are an essential component of the adaptive immune response and are highly versatile in function. Each T cell has a unique T cell receptor that can recognize an antigenic peptide in the context of the major ...
