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 ...
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 ...
Studies on Interactions between ARE Binding Proteins and Splicing Factors and their Role in Altered Splicing of PDGF-B ORF
(2018-03-03)
Pre-mRNA splicing is an important level in posttranscriptional gene regulation that is essential for accurate protein synthesis and generating protein diversity. The abundance of cryptic splice sites and long intronic DNA ...
Guanylyl Cyclase C Regulation And Pathophysiology
(2015-02-26)
The survival of the any living organism depends on its availability to communicate, and a breakdown of cellular signaling can have dire consequences such as uncontrolled cellular proliferations or even cell death. Environmental ...
Topology-based Sequence Design For Proteins Structures And Statistical Potentials Sensitive To Local Environments
(2013-01-17)
Proteins, which regulate most of the biological activities, perform their functions through their unique three-dimensional structures. The folding process of this three dimensional structure from one dimensional sequence ...
Glucose and Lipid Metabolism during Pregnancy and Lactation in Rats : Role of Undercarboxylated Osteocalcin
(2018-02-07)
Energy homeostasis is an important physiological mechanism essential for balancingenergy flow through the living systems by managing overall metabolism in the body.
Thus, energy homeostasis is under a tight control by means ...
Nucleic Acid-binding Adenylyl Cyclases in Mycobacteria : Studies on Evolutionary & Biochemical Aspects
(2018-02-08)
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 ...
Activation Of Glycoprotein Hormone Receptors : Role Of Different Receptor Domains In Hormone Binding And Signaling
(2014-07-16)
The glycoprotein hormones, Luteinizing Hormone (LH), human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG), Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) are heterodimeric proteins with an identical α-subunit ...
