Amylases From A Thermophilic Fungus Thermomyces Lanuginosus Iisc 91 :Their Purification And Properties
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-06)A knowledge of molecular properties and structure of heat-stable enzymes is important for the understanding of basic principles governing thermo stability of proteins and evolution of life at high temperatures. Information ... -
Antigenic Determinants Of Chicken Riboflavin Carrier Protein: Structural And Functional Aspects
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-09-01)Investigations detailed in this thesis constitute a part of the continuing programme of research undertaken in our laboratory on the riboflavin carrier protein (RCP) with particular reference to identification and synthesis ... -
Biodegradation Of 1-Naphthoic Acid
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-06)Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are compounds containing carbon and hydrogen atoms of fused benzene rings in linear, angular or cluster arrangements. These compounds have a large (negative) resonance energy, resulting ... -
Characterisation Of DNA Llgase And Pairing Activities From A Partially Purified Fraction From Rat Testis
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-06)Homologous genetic recombination is a central feature of meiosis in most sexually dividing organism. It leads to the establishment of new linkage relationships between genes and is crucial for the successful completion of ... -
Cloning and Expression of a Diagnostic Antigen for Invasive Amoebiasis
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-29)A crude extract of axenically grown amoebae was used as antigen in order to develop an AB microELISA for the detection and quantitation of E. histolytica-specific IgG antibodies. This ELISA was used to screen individual ... -
Cytotoxic T lymphocyte Responses Against Japanese Encephalitis Virus In Mice: Specificity And Immunotherapeutic Value
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-10-07)Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes (CTL) are known to play an important role in clearing infectious virus from infected hosts in a variety of viral infections. Depending on the type of virus and mode of virus entry both class I and ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Hormones and Cuscuta Development Abscisic Acid And Its Conjugates-Endogenous Levels And Metabolism During Growth And Haustoria Formation
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-25)Cuscuta or dodder is one of the best known higher plant parasite with around 158 species over 5 continents parasitising a wide variety of host plants (Yuncker,1932) Dodders are characterised by their interesting parasitic ... -
Identification of Tropomyosin as the Major Cross-Reacting Crustacean Allergen
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-25)Seafood including crustaceans, on ingestion, are known to provoke gastrointestinal as well as systemic allergic reactions. Crustaceans are aquatic arthropods with a chitinous exoskeleton and include shrimp, lobster, prawn ... -
Immunochemical Studies on the family of Biotin Binding Proteins
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-29)Investigations detailed in this thesis constitue a part of continuing programme of research work undertaken in this laboratory on vitamin binding proteins. Avidin from the chicken egg white, streptavidin &om the bacterium ... -
Invertase in a thermophilic fungus, thermomyces lanuginosus: its unusual behaviour And regulation
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-04-25)The understanding of the phenomenon of thermophily requires investigations of both thermophilic prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In the eukaryotes, thermophily is exhibited only by a few species of fungi which can grow up to ... -
Oxidative Stress In The Brain: Effects Of Hydroperoxides And Nitric Oxide On Glyceraldehyde 3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase And Phosphoinositide Cycle Enzymes
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-09-01)In the aerobic cell, oxygen can be converted into a series of reactive metabolites, together called as "reactive oxygen species" (ROS). This large group include both radical and non-radical species such as superoxide anion ...
