Characterizing the link between dynamics and function in proteins that violate the structure-function paradigm
The structure-function paradigm states that the three-dimensional structure of a protein is dictated by its amino acid sequence, which influences its function. However, this paradigm fails to explain the behaviour of ...
Interaction of the TCP4 protein with other transcription factors and its effect on Arabidopsis shoot apex
The TEOSINTE BRANCHED1, CYCLOIDEA, PROLIFERATING CELL FACTORs (TCP) class of proteins are plant-specific transcription factors with a non-canonical basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain involved in both DNA-binding and ...
Elucidating the diverse functions of RGG-motif containing proteins
One year embargo upto 20/2/2026
RGG-motif containing proteins represent one of the major subsets of RNA-binding proteins characterized by the presence of RGG/RG repeats. These proteins have been associated with a wide ...
Theta modulated dynamics in the hippocampus and its inputs during spatial navigation
The hippocampus is crucial for spatial navigation and has been hypothesized to integrate
sensory information and mnemonic cues about items and experiences within a spatial context
to create memories. Area CA1 is the ...
Conformational Heterogeneity, Solution Structure and Autoregulatory Roles of the MazE9 Antitoxin from Mycobacterium tuberculosis
The work presented in this thesis endeavors to decode the details of the dynamics of MazE9 antitoxin of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis MazEF9 toxin-antitoxin system and the transcriptional autoregulation effected by it. ...
Metabolic and Pharmacological Modulations During IFN-γ signaling
Interferons, initially discovered for their antiviral properties, play pivotal roles in various biological processes, including host defense against pathogens, tumor surveillance, and disease pathogenesis. Interferon-gamma ...
Exploring the Marine Algicolous Endophytic Fungi: A Promising Source of Novel Cancer Therapeutics
Cancer is the second leading cause of mortality globally, with over 6 million new cases diagnosed annually. Research on effective therapies is crucial due to the disease's complexity. Natural materials in chemotherapy have ...
Algorithms for Investigating, Decoding and Designing ligand recognition sites in proteins - A Structural Bioinformatics Approach to Studying Protein Function
All physical processes in living organisms are driven by specific biomolecular interactions.
Elucidating the characteristics of biomolecular interactions between proteins and their respective
small molecule ligands can ...
On mechanisms and conformational dynamics of Drug:H+ Antiporters
Multidrug efflux is an active transport process involving energy consumption to drive antibacterial compounds out of cells. This is performed either through primary active transport, where chemical energy, such as hydrolysis ...
Decoding of Attention and Behavioral State Using Local Field Potentials
Visual attention has been shown to modulate perceptual behavior and neuronal activity. Early psychophysical studies on attention showed that the subjects detected a target presented at the attended location better (i.e., ...
