Role of TCP4 Transcription Factor in the Maturation Program of Arabidopsis Life Cycle
(2018-07-28)
TCP4 as an integrator of key developmental events
A striking aspect of plant life is their sedentary life-style. Though it relieves them of the obligation of forming a complex body organization, it exposes them to ...
Metabolic Adaptation For Utilization Of Short-Chain Fatty Acids In Salmonella Typhimurium : Structural And Functional Studies On 2-methylcitrate Synthase, Acetate And Propionate Kinases
(2013-08-22)
Three-dimensional structures of proteins provide insights into the mechanisms of macromolecular assembly, enzyme catalysis and mode of activation, substrate-specificity, ligand-binding properties, stability and dynamical ...
Molecular Characterization c-di-GMP Signalling In Mycobacterium Smegmatis
(2014-07-17)
Bacterial stationary phase is an interesting biological system to study, as the organism undergoes several metabolic changes during this period and new molecules are generated to support its survival. The stationary phase ...
Structure Analysis Of FabI And FabZ Enzymes Of The Fatty Acid Biosynthesis Pathway Of Plasmodium Falciparum
(2013-08-30)
The emergence of drug resistant strains of Plasmodium has given a new face to the old disease, malaria. One of the approaches is to block metabolic pathways of the pathogen. The current thesis describes the X-ray ...

Structural Studies On Enzymes From Salmonella Typhimurium Involved In Propionate Metabolism: Biodegradative Threonine Deaminase, Propionate Kinase And 2-Methylisocitrate Lyase
(2007-11-23)
I formally joined Prof. M. R. N. Murthy’s laboratory at the Molecular Biophysics
Unit, Indian institute of Science, on 1st August 2001. During that time, the interest in the laboratory was mainly focused on structural ...
Structural Studies Of E. Coli Thioredoxin And P. Falciparum Triosephosphate Isomerase By NMR And Computational Methods
(2014-05-21)
To unravel the mysteries of complex biological processes carried out by biomolecules it is necessary to adopt a multifaceted approach, which involves employing a wide variety of tools both computational and experimental. ...
Exploring The Role Of The Highly Conserved Residues In Triosephosphate Isomerase
(2014-08-11)
This thesis discusses the structure-function studies on triosephosphate isomerase (TIM) from Plasmodium falciparum (Pf), directed towards understanding the roles of highly conserved residues by site derected mutagenesis. ...
Designed Synthetic Peptides : Models For Studies Of Conformational Transitions And Aromatic Interactions
(2015-07-17)
This thesis set out to explore the conformational properties of short designed peptide sequences, in which transitions between structural states may be anticipated. The use of conformationally constrained residues like ...
