Understanding mRNA fate regulation by RGG motif protein, Sbp1
Cellular events that rely on translation regulation has been well established, however the
molecular details of factors involved in bringing translation control remains inadequately
explored. RNA binding proteins form ...
Uncovering of a novel non-taxane anticancer secondary metabolite from Taxol-producing endophytic fungus: Optimization of culture parameters and whole-genome sequence analysis for improved taxane production biosynthesis.
Cancer-related mortalities and morbidities have proven to be a great health burden for human society with immense economic implications. With uncontrolled proliferation of cells as the fundamental principle underlying its ...
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 ...
Role of mammalian RAD51 paralogs in replication stress response and genome maintenance
The focus of my research has been to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying
the role of mammalian RAD51 paralogs in genome maintenance and tumor suppression. The
investigation carried out during this study has ...
Regulation of carbon metabolism in Pichia pastoris by Mxr1p and identification of novel regulators
Pichia pastoris (a.k.a. Komagataella phaffii), a widely used yeast for recombinant protein production, is cultured under a variety of conditions ranging from shake flasks to large bioreactors employing minimal, chemically ...
Studies on the post-transcriptional regulation of genes of glutamate utilization pathway in Pichia pastoris and a role for Retrograde regulation protein 1
The methylotrophic yeast, Pichia pastoris can utilize compounds such as glucose, glycerol, methanol, acetate, amino acids, or oleic acid as the sole source of carbon. However, the regulation of synthesis of key enzymes of ...
Investigating DNA structural basis for fragility during chromosomal translocations associated with human B-cell lymphomas
Genome integrity is essential for normal cellular functions. Erroneous repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) could lead to chromosomal rearrangements, including chromosomal translocations that may result in altered ...
New insights into the role of condensin in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) complexes are highly conserved from prokaryotes to eukaryotes. Saccharomyces cerevisiae has six SMC proteins which form three SMC-complexes in association with non-SMC subunits ...
Regulation of RecA nucleoprotein filament stability by RecX and the effects of RecA-membrane interaction on the activities of RecA in mycobacteria
E. coli RecA is a multifunctional protein known to be associated with the cell membrane, forming foci often located at the cell poles, which gets redistributed along the length of the cell during SOS response. Several lines ...
Functional characterization of Salmonella Typhimurium encoded Cold Shock Protein E during stress responses, biofilm formation and virulence
Overall, this study reports novel functional roles of S. Typhimurium encoded CspE during bile resistance, biofilm formation and in vivo virulence. It also establishes importance of an uncharacterised protein YciF, implicating ...
