The dual-targeting of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Pso2 into the nucleus and mitochondria is regulated by post-translational modifications: Implications for organelle-specific DNA repair
The repair of DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs) involves the concerted action of multiple DNA repair pathways. In eukaryotes, ICLs are sensed and repaired by replication-coupled or replication-independent mechanisms in ...
Understanding the architecture of mitochondrial presequence translocase machinery and its implications in ALS progression
The current thesis describes the structural organization of the presequence translocase machinery and its functional association with ALS pathogenesis. The TIM23 complex is essential for the mitochondrial biogenesis of ...
Understanding the role of DNAJC30 and ISCU in mitochondrial homeostasis
Williams-Beuren Syndrome (WBS) is a rare multisystem genomic disorder characterized by mild to moderate cognitive impairment, unique personality traits, distinctive facial features, cardiovascular problems, and infantile ...
Understanding the role of mtHsp70 in regulating mitochondrial homeostasis: revealing its significance in Congenital Sideroblastic Anemia progression
Mitochondria are ubiquitous organelles placed at the nexus of several metabolic and signaling pathways essential for cell survival. Therefore, maintaining a healthy and functional organelle becomes paramount for the cell. ...
Investigating DJ-1 homologs in maintaining genome integrity through glycation repair of macromolecules: Implications in regulating mitochondrial health
The current thesis work focuses on DJ-1 superfamily proteins and their role in protection against toxic glycating carbonyls such as Methylglyoxal (MG) and Glyoxal (GO). Our study reveals that yeast DJ-1 homologs (Hsp31 ...
