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 ...
The Elucidation of the Mechanism of Meiotic Chromosome Synapsis in Saccharomyces Cerevisiae : Insights into the Function of Synaptonemal Complex, Hop1 and Red1, Proteins and the Significance of DNA Quadruplex Structures
(2017-12-03)
Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division where two rounds of chromosome segregation follow a single round of DNA duplication resulting in the formation of four haploid daughter cells. Once the DNA replication is ...
Isolation And Identification of Tropane Alkaloid Producing Endophytic Fungi from Datura Metel L., And Studies on Colletotrichum Boninense Recombinant Putrescine N-mehtyltransferase
(2017-10-11)
Datura metel is a herbaceous plant found in almost all tropical parts of the world. It belongs to the family Solanaceae whose members, viz. Duboisia, Atropa, Hyoscyamus and Datura plants are known to produce tropane ...
Host Gene Expression Profiling of Japanese Encephalitis Virus Infected cells : Identification of Novel Pro- and Anti-viral Genes
(2017-11-27)
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), a mosquito-borne flavivirus is the causative agent of Japanese encephalitis (JE). The disease affects mostly children and around 30000– 50000 cases of JE and up to 15000 deaths are reported ...
Characterisation of Monoclonal Antibodies and Small Molecule Inhibitors as Hepatitis C Virus Entry Inhibitors
(2017-12-15)
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) represents a global health threat. HCV is a blood-borne positive-strand RNA virus belonging to the Flaviviridae family that infects ~160 million people worldwide. About 70% of infected individuals ...
Physiological And Exogenous Means of Regulating DNA Damage Response : Insights into Mechanisms of DNA Repair And Genomic Instability
(2017-09-23)
Maintenance of genomic integrity with high fidelity is of prime importance to any organism. An insult which may result in compromised genome integrity is prevented or its consequences are monitored by advanced cellular ...
Evaluation of Alternate DNA Structures at c-MYC Fragile Region Associated with t(8;14) Translocation And Role of GNG Motifs During G-quadruplex Formation
(2017-10-11)
Watson-Crick paired B-form DNA is the genetic material in most of the biological systems. Integrity of DNA is of utmost importance for the normal functioning of any organism. Various environmental factors, chemicals and ...
Elucidating the Roles of Lon Protease and its Substrate, MarA, in Response to salicylate and other Compounds in Escherichia coli
(2017-11-28)
Cytosolic protein degradation is crucial for cellular homeostasis as it orchestrates protein turnover by destruction of misfolded, unstable and abnormal proteins. This process has two main stages: (i) an ATP-dependent stage ...
Characterization Of Structural And Non-structural Proteins Of Positive Sense, Single-stranded RNA Plant Viruses
(2015-07-08)
In the present thesis, two positive sense single-stranded RNA viruses have been used as models to understand the structure and function of viral-encoded proteins. One of them, Pepper Vein Banding Virus (PVBV; genus Potyvirus; ...
