Insight into luteolytic effects of repeated administration of LH in pregnant rats: Analysis of cAMP/PKA pathway during LH-induced luteolysis
The Corpus luteum (CL) is a dynamic endocrine structure that develops in the ovary from the remnants of the ovulated follicle and plays a critical role in the control of estrous/menstrual cycle as well as in establishment ...
Engineering Reverse Turns: Implications in Conformation, Stability and Bioactivity of Peptides and Proteins
The work presented in this thesis provides an overview of the potential role of N-methylation in inducing reverse turns. Backbone N-methylation is one of the common modifications designed by nature and exploited by humans ...
Spatial and temporal patterns of vegetation- climate interactions
In this thesis, I tried to understand the patterns and processes of vegetation trends at different
spatial scales and resolution. The spatial variability in vegetation trends was related to inter and
intra-annual changes ...
Understanding Rules of Assembly and Species Interactions in Mixed-species Bird Flocks
In mixed-species bird flocks (flocks hereafter), participants vary in their degree of similarity
with each other. Flock participants can gain group size (supplementary) benefits by choosing
similar flock partners, or ...
The Influence of Glycerol and Specific Genes on the Asymmetric Cell Division in Mycobacteria
The Influence of Glycerol and Specific Genes
on the Asymmetric Cell Division in Mycobacteria
Submitted by Atul Pradhan (S.R. No. 03-04-00-10-11-14-1-11678)
Background Information: Mycobacteria maintain heterogeneity in ...
Rv0805, a novel regulator of central carbon metabolism and cell envelope properties in mycobacteria
Metabolic flexibility is one of the key factors that underpin mycobacterial physiology and pathogenesis. During infection, mycobacteria shift towards utilising host-derived fatty acids, lipids, cholesterol and cholesterol-esters. ...
Lineage delimitation and diversification in Nyctibatrachus, an endemic frog genus from the Western Ghats
Determining how biodiversity is produced and maintained remains one of the fundamental
questions in ecology. The phenomenon of diversification, which occurs via the interplay of
speciation and extinction, holds the key ...
Understanding the Regulation of mRNA Translation Repression by RGG-motif Proteins
Messenger RNA translation is one of the most energy expensive steps in the process of gene expression and therefore translation regulation is critical for maintaining cellular homeostasis. In contrast to transcriptional ...
Distribution, activity budget and feeding ecology of Himalayan gray langur (Semnopithecus ajax) in Kashmir Himalaya
Colobines are group of primates known to inhabit harsh environments. These habitats pose different challenges which they have coped up physiologically and behaviourally. Primates in such environments are subjected to ...
