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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Light-And Cytokinin-Regulated Plastid And Nuclear Gene Expression In Cucumber (Cucumis Sativus L)
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-12-06)Light and phytohormones, such as cytokinins, have been known to play a pivotal role in numerous physiological processes in plant cells. Previous work in our laboratory has revealed the light- and cytokinin- modulated changes ... -
Nuclear Behaviour In Heterokaryons : Genetic And Molecular Analysis Of (his-3+ his-3+) Heterokaryons Of Neurospora Crassa
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-12-06)In contrast to plant and animal cells, the fungal cells are multinucleate. A consequence of their multinucleate condition is heterokaryosis — the occurrence of genetically different nuclei in a common cytoplasm. In nature ... -
Studies On The Molecular Mechanism Of Cytokinin Action: Involvement Of Ca2+, Protein Kinase And Concurrent Protein Synthesis In Signaling Of Cytokinin-Induced Expression Of Pathogenesis-Related Enzymes In Cucumber
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-12-08)Phytohormones act as signals to regulate plant growth and development by modulation of gene expression in response to internal developmental cues or external environmental stimuli, such as light and pathogen infection. ... -
Study of Ca2+-Mediated Signal Transduction During Embryogenesis In Sandalwood (Santalurm Album L.) And Characterization Of An Early Development-Specific CDPK
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-12-08)Calcium ion plays a pivotal role as second messenger during signal/response coupling in plant cells (Trewavas, 1999). Elevations of cytosolic Ca2+ occur in plants as a consequence of abiotic and biotic stresses, environmental ...
