Exploring the Roles of Phase Variable HpyAII Restriction-modification System in the Human Pathogen Helicobacter pylori
Helicobacter pylori is a Gram-negative microaerophilic bacteria known to infect as much as 80% of some populations with an average morbidity range of around 50% of the world population. It has been recognized as a definitive ... -
Fatty Acid And Triacylglycerol Synthesis In Developing Seeds Of Groundnut (Arachis Hypogaea) And Pisa (Actinodaphne Hookeri)
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-18)The term "lipid" covers an extremely diverse range of chemical or molecular species. Lipids, defined as molecules that are sparingly soluble in water but readily soluble in organic solvents, are broadly categorized into ... -
Flavivirus RNA replication: Probe development, structural dynamics, and role of zinc ions.
Flaviviruses share a typical genome architecture where the highly conserved UTRs flank a central coding region. They also share a common genome replication strategy called genome cyclization where the UTRs interact to form ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Functional Characterization of C4 Protien of Cotton Leaf Curl Kokhran Virus - Dabawali
(2018-03-07)1) Geminiviruses are a group of plant viruses which contain circular single stranded DNA molecules as their genomes and the capsid consists of two icosahedra fused together to form twinned or geminate particles. The largest ... -
Functional Characterization Of Proteins Involved In Cell To Cell Movement Of Cotton Leaf Curl Kokhran Virus- Dabawali
(2010-09-13)Viruses are submicroscopic obligate parasites and depend on the host cell for their growth and reproduction. Plants are infected by diverse group of viruses that mostly possess RNA as their genome. As exception, viruses ... -
Functional characterization of Salmonella Typhimurium encoded Cold Shock Protein E during stress responses, biofilm formation and virulence
Overall, this study reports novel functional roles of S. Typhimurium encoded CspE during bile resistance, biofilm formation and in vivo virulence. It also establishes importance of an uncharacterised protein YciF, implicating ... -
Functional Differentiation Of The Human Placenta : Insights From The Expression Of Two Developmentally - Regulated Genes
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-12-08)Placenta is a transient association of the fetal and maternal tissues, that develops during pregnancy, in most viviparous animals. The evolution of placenta ensured the development of the fetus inside the womb of the mother, ... -
Functional Role Of Heat Shock Protein 90 From Plasmodium Falciparum
(2009-03-18)Molecular chaperones have emerged in recent years as major players in many aspects of cell biology. Molecular chaperones are also known as heat shock proteins (HSPs) since many were originally discovered due to their increased ... -
Functions Of Nucleosomes And Other Regulatory Factor(S) In Homologous Recombination Promoted By RecA Protein
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-18)Homologous genetic recombination occurs during the life cycle of virtually every organism Genetic studies especially in prokaryotes and fungi have defined the rules of recombination, led to the characterization of alternate ... -
Gene Expression During Cytokinin-Induced Haustoria Formation in Cuscuta Reflexa, Roxb
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-19)How multicellular organisms develop from a single-celled fertilized egg or zygote that in no way resembles the adult form is one of the major challenges in biology The phase of rapid cell division that follows fertilization ... -
Glycodelin A : A Novel Immunoregulatory Lectin Of The Female Reproductive Tract : Molecular Mechanism Of GdA-Induced Apoptosis In Activated T Cells
(2010-08-06)Glycodelin is a 162 amino acid secreted glycoprotein classified as a member of the lipocalin (carriers of small hydrophobic molecules) superfamily based on the presence of lipocalin signature motifs in its primary sequence. ... -
Glycodelin-A As The Regulator Of CD8+ T-Lymphocyte Activity : Implications In Primate Pregnancy
(2015-01-02)The ability of our immune system to mount a response against non-self-antigens legitimates the semi-allogenic fetus as a target for maternal immune attack. Yet, in a normal pregnancy the fetus stays well protected due to ... -
Heat Shock Protein 70 Of Plasmodium Falciparum: Proteomic Analysis Of Its Complexes And Cellular Functions
(Indian Institute Of Science, 2004-10)Hest shock protein 70 (Hsp70) class of chaperones is highly conserved and present ubiquitously in all cellular organisms They play important role in folding of nascent polypeptides and translocation of precursor proteins ...
