Biochemical Characterization Of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mre11/Rad50/Xrs2 Using Telomeric DNA : A Role For The Endonucleolytic Activity Of Mre11 In Telomere Length Maintenance And Its Regulation By Rad50
(2009-05-15)
Meiotic recombination is a prerequisite for exchange of genetic information in all
Sexually reproducing organisms. This process is initiated by the formation of double
stranded breaks (DSBs) in DNA followed by homology ...
Functional Analysis Of Unique Motifs In Dimeric EcoP151 DNA Methyltransferase
(2011-01-11)
Restriction endonucleases occur ubiquitously among bacteria, archaea and in viruses of certain unicellular algae, and they are usually accompanied by a modification enzyme of identical specificity; together, the two ...
Selective Binding Of Meiosis-Specific Yeast Hop1 Protein, or Its ZnF Motif, To The Holliday Junction Distorts The DNA Structure : Implications For Junction Migration And Resolution
(2010-09-30)
Saccharomyces cerevisiae HOP1, which encodes a component of the synaptonemal complex, plays an important role in both gene conversion and crossing over between homologs, as well as enforces the meiotic recombination ...
Identification And Characterization Of A Virus Inducible Non Coding RNA (VINC)
(2010-12-29)
Non-protein coding eukaryotic genome sequences often referred to as junk DNA are estimated to encode several non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) which may account for nearly 98% of all genomic output in humans. The output of such a ...
Functional Characterization And Regulation Of UvrD Helicases From Haemophilus Influenzae And Helicobacter Pylori, And Recj Exonuclease Fron Haemophilus Influenzae
(2013-04-01)
DNA repair processes are crucial for mutation avoidance and the maintenance of genetic integrity in all organisms. Organisms rely on repair processes to combat genotoxic stress imposed by hostile host environment, and ...
Studies On Initiator tRNA Selection On The Ribosomes In Escherichia Coli
(2009-05-06)
The studies reported in this thesis address the aspects of initiator tRNA selection in Escherichia Coli. A summary of the relevant literature discussing the process of ptotein biosynthesis in general and initiator tRNA ...
The Mechanism Of Fragility Of The BCL2 And HOX11 Breakpoint Regions During t(14;18) And t(10;14) Chromosomal Translocations In Lymphoid Cancers
(2014-08-05)
Haematological cancers like leukemia and lymphoma are characterized by genetic abnormalities, specifically chromosomal translocations. Analyses of the translocation breakpoint regions in patients have shown that some loci ...
