Molecular basis of attenuation of the live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus vaccine SA14-14-2
Japanese encephalitis virus is a member of Flaviviridae family. Flaviviridae family
has four genera which comprises of Flavivirus, Pestivirus, Hepacivirus and Pegivirus. The
global burden of disease caused by these viruses ...
Deciphering the evolutionary significance of maintaining cryptic genetic systems by bacteria
Cryptic genes are phenotypically silent DNA sequences with the potential to code for a function, but remain inactive during the normal life span of the organism. However they can be activated by a single mutational event ...
Biogeography and comparative phylogeography of freshwater snails of India
Distribution of flora and fauna is shaped by both current and historical processes. In my thesis
I concentrated on how the historical component of the governing processes have dictated the
current distribution of biota. ...
Use of sub-family specific residues of protein modules in recognizing sites of functional and structural specialization
Functional and regulatory features of a protein in a living system are determined by several factors
such as chemical nature and three-dimensional arrangement of residues in the functional site, spatial
and temporal ...
Investigating DNA structural basis for fragility during chromosomal translocations associated with human B-cell lymphomas
Genome integrity is essential for normal cellular functions. Erroneous repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) could lead to chromosomal rearrangements, including chromosomal translocations that may result in altered ...
The role of Rv1860 from M. tuberculosis in modulating the host immune response
Tuberculosis continues to prevail as the major cause of mortality from any single pathogen around the world, despite implementation of control programs and the availability of effective drugs and the vaccine BCG. Mycobacterium ...
Host responses in Fas-deficient autoimmune-prone lpr mice upon Salmonella Typhimurium infection
Autoimmune diseases can potentially pre-dispose an individual to infections. On the other hand, infections can trigger, exacerbate or ameliorate autoimmunity. Autoimmune Lymphoproliferative Syndrome (ALPS) is a rare genetic ...
Investigating Partners of OsMADS1 Transcription Factor and functions for some associated factors for roles in rice inflorescence and floral development
Title: Investigating Partners of OsMADS1 Transcription Factor and functions for some associated factors for roles in rice inflorescence and floral development
The classic ABCDE model for floral organ identity show that ...
Large-Scale Structural Analysis of Protein-ligand Interactions : Exploring New Paradigms in Anti-Tubercular Drug Discovery
(2018-08-13)
BIOLOGICAL processes are governed through specific interactions of macromolecules. The three-dimensional structural information of the macromolecules is necessary to understand the basis of molecular recognition. A large ...
Biochemical and Functional Characterization of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Nucleoid-Associated Proteins H-NS and mIHF
(2018-08-11)
Bacteria lack nucleus and any other membrane-bound organelles. Hence all the cellular components, including proteins, DNA, RNA and other components are located within the cytoplasm. The region of the cell which encompasses ...
