Mapping Of Glycoprotein Hormone-Receptor Interactions Using Hormone Analogs And Antibodies
(2010-09-21)
The glycoprotein hormone family comprising of Luteinizing Hormone (LH), Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG), Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) plays important role in reproduction and overall ...
Identification Of Domains Of The Follicle Stimulating Hormone Receptor Involved In Hormone Binding And Signal Transduction
(2010-10-08)
The glycoprotein hormones, Luteinizing Hormone (LH), human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG), Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) are heterodimeric proteins with an identical α-subunit ...
Studies On Growth And Development Of The Ovarian Dominant Follicle In Monovulatory Species : Analysis Of Transcriptional Changes And Factors Influencing Periovulatory Events
(2010-10-28)
In response to LH surge, the selected dominant follicle undergoes a series of complex events viz., meiotic maturation of the oocyte, terminal differentiation of follicular cells, cumulus expansion and follicular rupture ...
Aromatic Beta-Glucoside Utilization In Shigella Sonnei : Comparison With The Escherichia Coli Paradigm
(2010-12-01)
The aromatic beta-glucosides of plant origin, salicin and arbutin, serve as carbon sources for the sustenance of bacteria when ‘preferred’ sugars are absent in the environment. In the family Enterobacteriaceae, there are ...
Mycobacterium Leprae RecA Intein : A LAGLIDADG Homing Endonuclease, Displays A Unique Mode Of DNA Binding And Catalysis Compared To A Canonical LAGLIDADG Homing Enzyme
(2010-09-30)
Mobile genetic elements are DNA sequences that move around to different positions within one genome or between different genomes. Mobile DNA elements were initially considered as selfish DNA sequences parasitizing the ...
A Study On The Roles Of The Ras Activation Pathway During Interferonγ Mediated Functional Responses And Acetaminophen-induced Liver Injury In Mice
(2010-12-07)
Interferons (IFNs) perform a wide range of biological activities: anti-microbial, anti-proliferative, immunomodulatory etc. The IFN family includes three main classes: Type I, Type II and the recently identified Type III. ...
Unique Features Of Heme-Biosynthetic Pathway In The Human Malaria Parasite, Plasmodium Falciparum
(2010-12-29)
Malaria is a life-threatening vector borne infectious disease caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Plasmodium. More than 100 species of Plasmodium can infect numerous animal species such as reptiles, birds and various ...
Identification And Characterisation Of Two Silencing Barrier Sequences In Saccharomyces Cerevisiae
(2010-07-21)
In eukaryotic cells, genomic DNA exists as chromatin in association with histone octamers called nucleosomes, and various other chromatin proteins. Chromatin structure varies along the chromosome and this influences the ...
Selective Binding Of Meiosis-Specific Yeast Hop1 Protein, or Its ZnF Motif, To The Holliday Junction Distorts The DNA Structure : Implications For Junction Migration And Resolution
(2010-09-30)
Saccharomyces cerevisiae HOP1, which encodes a component of the synaptonemal complex, plays an important role in both gene conversion and crossing over between homologs, as well as enforces the meiotic recombination ...
A Comparative Study On The Sensitivity Of Cells Of Different Lineages To Plant Ribosome Inactivating Protein - Abrin
(2010-12-08)
Proteins with selective toxicity have been investigated for use in many ways. One class of proteins, ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs), is found throughout the plant kingdom as well as in lower organisms like certain ...
