Functional Characterization of a SAND–Domain–containing Factor OsULTRAPETALA1 – a Direct Downstream Target of OsMADS1
Studies on meristem identity regulators in Rice (Oryza sativa), a model plant for cereal crops have revealed how meristem identity and transitions are controlled, bearing implications for crop yield improvement. We were ... -
Genetic and environmental determinants of swarming in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Swarming, in bacteria, is a type of group translocation phenomenon observed in several flagellated species characterized by their ability to spread across solid or semi-solid surfaces rapidly – often with a distinct colony ... -
Genetic control of Embryonic and Adult muscle development in Drosophila melanogaster by Mlp60A
Many genetic regulatory networks are required to define the overall characters in a living organism. Characters which are necessary for survival in the wild are often canalized, such that despite genetic and environmental ... -
Identification and Characterisation of a miRNA releasing activity from Caenorhabditis elegans
MicroRNAs (miRNA) are endogenous, small non coding RNAs, which play a prominent role in eukaryotic gene regulation. Perturbations leading to an altered abundance of miRNAs can lead to pathological conditions like neurological ... -
Investigating the role and regulation of Polypyrimidine tract binding protein (PTB) in isoform switching during muscle development in Drosophila melanogaster
Muscles are an excellent system to dissect the development, physiology and evolution of cell heterogeneity and isoform switching. The vertebrate skeletal muscles are composed of heterogeneous muscle fibres. These fibres ...
