Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Phosphatidylinositol-Specific Phospholipase C Mediated Regulation Of Lipid Metabolism
(2016-03-04)
Phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) is involved in Ca2+ mediated signalling events that lead to altered cellular status. PLC activation causes hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and ...
Characterization Of HP1369-HP1370 From Helicobacter Pylori : A Novel ε Type N6 –Adenine Methyltransferase
(2013-07-18)
Helicobacter pylori is one of the most genetically diverse bacterial species that successfully colonizes at least 50% of the world population. It has been associated with humans for thousands of years and most probably ...
Functional Characterization Of Rv0754(PE_PGRS11) : A Multifunctional PE_PGRS Protein From Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
(2011-01-11)
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of pulmonary tuberculosis, infects one-third of the world’s human population. Despite the multiplicity of antimicrobial mechanisms mounted by its host, M. tuberculosis shows ...
Elucidation Of Differential Role Of A Subunit Of RNA Polymerase II, Rpb4 In General And Stress Responsive Transcription In Saccharomyces Cerevisiae
(2010-09-14)
RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is the enzyme responsible for the synthesis of all mRNAs in eukaryotic cells. As the central component of the eukaryotic transcription machinery, Pol II is the final target of regulatory pathways. ...
Lip Y, The PE Family Triacylglycerol Hydrolase From Mycobacterium Tuberculosis : Functional Role Of The PE Domain And Immunogenicity
(2010-10-28)
More human lives have been lost to tuberculosis than to any other disease and despite the availability of effective short course chemotherapy (DOTS) as well as the Bacilli Calmette Guerin (BCG) vaccine, tuberculosis continues ...
Studies On Saccharomyces Cerevisiae RNA Polymerase II Subunit Rpb7 And Its Eukaryotic Orthologs
(2010-06-03)
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an excellent experimental model organism to study various biological processes owing to its versatile genetics, biochemistry, and standard laboratory conditions. S. cerevisiae shows distinct ...
Survival Strategies Of SALMONELLA
(2010-08-25)
The genus Salmonella includes facultative intracellular pathogens. Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) causes typhoid fever in humans killing about 2,00,000 people globally every year. Salmonella enterica serovars ...
Survival Strategies Of Salmonella Under Host Nitrosative Stress And Its Role In Pathogenesis
(2010-12-07)
Chapter: 1
Introduction
Genus Salmonella is a Gram-negative rod shaped facultative anaerobic bacteria that can survive inside the host macrophages and cause persistent infection. Salmonella Typhimurium, Salmonella Typhi ...
Studies On DNA Gyrase From Mycobacteria : Insights Into Its Mechanism Of Action And Elucidation Of Its Interaction With The Transcription Machinery
(2010-09-30)
Packaging of genomic DNA by proteins and super coiling into chromatin and chromatin-like structures (in bacteria) influences nearly all nuclear process such as replication, transcription, repair, and recombination. A ...
Processing Of DNA Recombination And Replication Intermediates By Mycobacterium Tuberculosis RuvA And RuvB Proteins
(2013-06-14)
Homologous recombination (HR) is a highly conserved cellular process involved in the
maintenance of chromosomal integrity and generation of genetic diversity. Biochemical and genetic studies have suggested that HR is ...
