Evaluation Of The Efficacy Of DNA Vaccines For Japanese Encephalitis In A Murine Intracerebral Japanese Encephalitis Virus Challenge Model
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-12-05)Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), a member of the family flaviviridae, is one of the most important pathogens of the developing countries, causing high mortality and morbidity amongst children. The present study is aimed ... -
Exploring the Marine Algicolous Endophytic Fungi: A Promising Source of Novel Cancer Therapeutics
Cancer is the second leading cause of mortality globally, with over 6 million new cases diagnosed annually. Research on effective therapies is crucial due to the disease's complexity. Natural materials in chemotherapy have ... -
Exploring the role of low complexity protein sequence in regulating RNA granule dynamics and translation control
RNA granules are conserved membraneless mRNP complexes that play an important role in determining mRNA fate by affecting translation repression and mRNA decay. Processing bodies (P-bodies) harbor enzymes responsible for ... -
Exploring The Role Of Purinergic Signaling In T Cell Activation
(2013-07-17)Adenosine 5’ triphosphate (ATP) is a molecule central to life for its role as the cellular energy currency, and a purine nucleotide which serves as a building block of RNA. Thus, on the backdrop of an indispensible ... -
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 ...
