Protein synthesis is a process by which organisms manufacture their proteins that perform various cellular activities either alone or in combination with other similar or different molecules. In eubacteria, protein synthesis ...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis is one of the most successful human pathogens, estimated to have infected close to one-third of the global human population. In order to survive within its host, M. tuberculosis utilises multiple ...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative organism of the disease tuberculosis (TB) in humans, leads to nearly two million deaths each year. This versatile pathogen can exist in highly distinct physiological states such ...

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, has long been the scourge of humanity, claiming millions of lives. It is the most devastating infectious disease of the world in terms of mortality as well as morbidity ...

Mobile inteins and introns are genetic elements capable of self-propagation by “homing” into host genes and occur in entire taxonomy: eubacteria, eukarya, archaea and viruses. The process of “homing” is promoted by an ...

Mycobacteria are multifaceted pathogens capable of causing both acute disease as well as an asymptomatic latent infection. Protective immunity against pathogenic mycobacteria depends principally on cell-mediated immunity ...

To maintain the genomic integrity, cell has evolved various DNA repair pathways. Base Excision Repair pathway (BER) is one such DNA repair pathway which is dedicated to protect DNA from small lesions such as oxidation, ...

Introduction Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a highly conserved pathway involved in repair of a wide variety of structurally unrelated DNA lesions. One of the well characterized NER systems is from E. coli which ...
