Elucidating the role of carbon metabolism genes chiA and yjiY in Salmonella pathogenesis.
Salmonella is a foodborne pathogen that causes debilitating enteric diseases in a wide range of hosts. While Salmonella Typhimurium causes self-limiting gastroenteritis in human beings, Salmonella Typhi causes typhoid fever ...
Soil microorganisms and biogeochemical cycles in a grazing ecosystem: interactions between producers, consumers, and decomposers
Microorganisms are the unseen majority that determines ecosystem processes, they perform
biogeochemical functions that translate into essential services, and regulate global climate. In
grazing ecosystems, which represent ...
From Transformation to Therapeutics : Diverse Biological Applications of Shock Waves
(2018-02-26)
Chapter–I Introduction
Shock waves appear in nature whenever the different elements in a fluid approach one another with a velocity larger than the local speed of sound. Shock waves are essentially non-linear waves that ...
Typhoidal And Non-Typhoidal Salmonella Serovars - A Comparartive Study
(2011-02-08)
Chapter Introduction
Salmonellae are gram negative bacteria that cause gastroenteritis and entericfever. S. enterica is divided into seven phylogenetic groups, subspecies 1, 2,3a, 3b, and 4, 6, 7. Subspecies1 includes ...
Stress Response In Salmonella And Its Role In Pathogenesis
(2011-02-08)
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 ...
Understanding the mechanism of host deacetylase SIRT1 and SIRT3 in the modulation of Salmonella pathogenesis
Host sirtuins are one of the important modulators of host immuno-metabolic regulation. However, the role of sirtuins in the modulation of the immune metabolism pertaining to Salmonellosis is largely unknown. Here, we ...
Structural Studies On Mycobacterial RecA And RuvA
(2010-10-21)
Homologous recombination is a fundamental cellular process evolved to maintain genomic integrity and to generate genetic diversity. It plays a crucial role in DNA repair, correct segregation of meiotic chromosomes and ...
Structural Studies On The Enzymes FabI And FabZ Of Plasmodium Falciparum
(2008-10-20)
The thesis deals with X-ray crystallographic analysis of two enzymes involved in the fatty
acid biosynthesis pathway, known as Fatty Acid Synthase or FAS, of the malarial parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, in order to ...
Biochemical And Molecular Insights Into β-Hydroxyacyl-Acyl Carrier Protein Dehydratase (FabZ) From Plasmodium Falciparum
(2008-10-14)
Malaria, caused by Plasmodium, is one of the most devastating infectious diseases of the world in terms of mortality as well as morbidity (WHO, 2002). The development of resistance in the Plasmodium falciparum against the ...
Components Of Fatty Acid Synthesis In Plasmodium Falciparum
(2008-10-17)
The disease malaria afflicts more than a billion people and kills almost one
to three million of them every year. Of the four species of Plasmodium affecting man viz., P. falciparum, P. vivax, P. ovale and P. malariae, ...
