Purification and characterization of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase II from candida utilis
Abstract not available -
Purification, kinetic mechanism and regulation of nitrate reductase from candida utilis
Nitrate is a major source of inorganic nitrogen utilized by most plants, some algae, fungi, and a variety of bacteria. This fundamental biological process of nitrate assimilation in most systems involves the reduction of ... -
Racemases in Salmonella : Insights into the Dexterity of the Pathogen
(2018-02-27)Chapter -I Introduction Salmonella is a pathogen well-known for its ability to infect a wide variety of hosts and causes disease ranging from mild gastroenteritis to typhoid fever. During infection, it is exposed to a ... -
Regulation and Characterization of Transcription Factor Activator Protein-2 Alpha (AP-2α)
(2018-02-11)Introduction AP2α is a 52 kDa retinoic acid inducible and developmentally regulated activator of transcription, which binds to the DNA in a sequence-specific manner. Transcription factor AP-2α was isolated from HeLa cells ... -
Regulation of auxin response by UBIQUITIN-SPECIFIC PROTEASE14/ TARANI in Arabidopsis thaliana
The genetic pathway regulating auxin response in Arabidopsis is well established and provides us a framework to assess whether TNI belongs to this pathway. The total number of lateral roots is taken as a read-out of auxin ... -
Regulation of Expression of p53 and its Isoform Δ40p53 : Consequences on Cellular Gene Expression
The TP53 tumour suppressor gene encodes for p53 protein which is the frequently altered gene in most of the cancers. p53 protein is activated in response to different stresses and plays major role in maintaining genome ... -
Regulation of fibrion H gene expression in the posterior silk gland of Bombyx mori.
The larval silk glands of Bombyx mori have long served as a model system for investigating developmentally regulated, tissue and stage specific gene expression. The silk glands consist of a pair of long tubular organs ... -
Regulation of Hepatitis C Virus life-cycle by lncRNA HULC: crosstalk with other host factors
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a positive sense single-stranded RNA virus. It belongs to the family Flaviviridae and the genus hepacivirus. Following the receptor-mediated endocytosis, HCV genome is released into the cytoplasm, ... -
Regulation of Host Innate Immune Responses by Hippo Signaling Pathway during Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs) Driven Inflammation : Implication for Host-Pathogen Interactions
Innate immunity refers to the first line of defence system of the host that comes into play immediately or within hours of appearance of invading pathogens like bacteria, viruses and fungi. Cells of the innate immune system ... -
Regulation Of Interferon Regulatory Factor-2 mRNA Translation By 'IRES' Element : Possible Role Of trans Acting Factors
(2009-09-03)Cellular response to various stress conditions involves regulation of gene expression by different mechanisms. Translation is the final step in the flow of genetic information and regulation at this level allows an early ... -
Regulation of Leaf Margin Development by TOOTH/MIR160A in Arabidopsis Thaliana
(2017-11-13)TOOTH/MIR160A regulates leaf margin outgrowth in Arabidopsis thaliana Unlike animals, a striking aspect of the plant development is that they have evolved a flexible pattern of post embryonic development. This exposes ... -
Regulation of the Principal Cell Division Protein FtsZ of Escherichia Coli by Antisense RNA and FtsH Protease
(2018-05-10)The PhD thesis is on the studsy of the influence of the ftsZ antisense RNA and FtsH protease on the synthesis and function of the Escherichia coli cytokinetic protein, FtsZ, which mediates septation during cell division. ... -
Regulatory events governing host-C. albicans interaction: potential implications for wound healing
Regulatory events governing host-C. albicans interaction: potential implications for wound healing. Candida albicans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen that resides commensally in 50% of the world population and is known ... -
Regulatory mechanisms of transcription initiation at MOM promoter of bacteriophage MU
There are two overlapping but divergently oriented promoters, momP1 and momP2. E. coli RNA polymerase is unable to bind to momP1 on its own. A possibility of DNA curvature in the promoter region preventing RNAP occupancy ... -
Response of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to Hypoxia and its physiological Significance - A Morphological and Molecular Level Study
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) has evolved as an important clinical pathogen due to its ability to gain multidrug resistance, to enter into latency to persist there and to get reactivated from the latent infection in ... -
Response of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis to Rifampicin - A Cellular, Molecular, and Ultrastructural Study
(2018-02-15)Tee PhD thesis presents the study of the response of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, upon prolonged exposure to lethal concentrations of the first line anti-tuberculosis drug, rifampicin. ... -
Rice transcription factors OsMADS2 and OsMADS4 regulate floret organ development: Deciphering their gene targets, traits and functions related to their unequal genetic redundancy
Organs in modern dicot flowers are positioned in concentric rings (whorls). The outermost whorl has green protective sepals, internal to which are showy petals, and the reproductive stamen and carpel whorls. Florets of ...
