(2018-04-23)The present thesis focuses on the elucidation of human mitochondrial inner membrane presequence-translocation machinery with implications on cancer cell proliferation. Mitochondria are the endosymbiotic organelles in an ... -
Untangling the Helicobacter pylori genome: Deciphering the significance of zinc finger motif(s) in Topoisomerase I catalysis
Helicobacter pylori, a human pathogen dominating gastric microbial population, displays differential gene expression during various stages of stomach colonization. Topoisomerases play a crucial role in maintaining DNA ... -
Virus-Inducible Gene Expression Changes In Mouse Brain : Studies With Japanese Encephalitis & Rabies Viruses
(2009-04-16)One of the key events in a virus-infected host cell is the activation and repression of a large number of host genes. In recent years, such differentially expressed host genes have been identified for several viruses, ...
