Manganese-Dependent Serine/Threonine/Tyrosine Kinase From Arabidopsis Thaliana : Role Of Serine And Threonine Residues In The Regulation Of Kinase Activity
(2008-10-01)Protein phosphorylation is an important post-translational modification of proteins, which can either activate or inhibit the function of a given protein. The enzymes, protein kinases and protein phosphatases catalyze the ... -
Mapping the Functional Domain of Glycodelin A : An Immunomodulatory Lipocalin
Glycodelins (Gds) are dimeric, glycosylated proteins belonging to the lipocalin superfamily which are primarily transporters of small hydrophobic molecules. Gd is classified under the lipocalin superfamily as it shows 55 ... -
Mechanism of Abrin-Induced Apoptosis and Insights into the Neutralizing Activity of mAb D6F10
(2017-11-23)Abrin is a potent toxin obtained from the seeds of Abrus precatorius. It is a heterodimeric glycoprotein consisting of an A and a B subunit linked together by a disulfide bond. The toxicity of the protein comes from the A ... -
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 ... -
Mechanism Of RAG Action As A Structure-Specific Nuclease : Implications In Genomic Instability In Lymphoid Cells
(2013-07-18)Recombination Activating Genes (RAGs) orchestrate the process called V (D) J recombination, which enables the vertebrate adaptive immune system to specifically recognize millions of antigens. During this recombination ... -
Mechanism of RAG Regulation During Its Physiological and Pathological Functions in Lymphoid Cells
(2018-08-11)RAGs (Recombination Activating Genes) are responsible for generation of antigen receptor diversity in case of B-cells and T-cells, through the process of combinatorial joining of different V (variable), D (diversity) and ... -
Mechanism Of Replication Of Sesbania Mosaic Virus (SeMV)

Mechanistic Insights Into Heat Shock Protein 90 (Hsp90) Trans-splicing in Giardia lamblia
Hsp90 gene is conserved and encoded by a single ORF with none to many cis-spliced introns across the biological kingdom. Previous studies from our lab have shown that Hsp90 gene in Giardia lamblia has a split nature having ... -
Mechanistic insights into the replication of Sesbania mosaic virus
The present thesis deals with the mechanism of replication of Sesbania mosaic virus (SeMV), which belongs to the genus sobemoviruses. Sobemoviruses are single stranded positive sense RNA viruses which infect both mono and ... -
Metabolic and Pharmacological Modulations During IFN-γ signaling
Interferons, initially discovered for their antiviral properties, play pivotal roles in various biological processes, including host defense against pathogens, tumor surveillance, and disease pathogenesis. Interferon-gamma ... -
Metabolic Regulation of Gametocytogenesis in Malaria
Plasmodium sp. is an obligate intracellular protozoan parasite causing malaria and is responsible for more than 500,000 human deaths annually. P. falciparum and P. vivax are the two major species causing malaria in humans. ... -
Molecular and biochemical studies on components of transcription regulation, tropane alkaloid biosynthesis and signal transduction in the medicinal plant Datura metel L.
Tropane alkaloids (TA) are among the oldest medicines known to humankind as they possess hallucinogenic and poisonous properties. Datura metel, an herbaceous plant, belongs to the family Solanaceae whose members are well ... -
Molecular Approaches To understand Cellular Differentiation - A Study Using BeWo Choriocarcinoma Cells
(2010-05-24)Cellular differentiation is a complex but fascinating process in all multicellular organisms. Differentiation can involve changes in numerous aspects of cell physiology; size, shape, polarity, metabolic activity, responsiveness ... -
Molecular Characterization of Groundnut Bud Necrosis Virus Encoded Non Structural Protein m (NSm)
(2018-01-28)Chapter 3 Groundnut Bud Necrosis Virus (GBNV) is a tripartite ambisense RNA plant virus that belongs to serogroup IV of Tospovirus genus. Non-Structural protein-m (NSm), which functions as movement protein in tospoviruses, ... -
Molecular Cloning And Characterization Of A Calcium-Depdendent Protein Kinase Isoform ScCPK1 From Swainsona Canescens
(2013-06-10)Plants are constantly exposed to pathogens and various environmental stresses, such as cold, salinity and drought. Plants normally respond rapidly to these biotic and abiotic stresses. Efficient perception of biotic and ...
