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 ... -
Rinderpest Virus Transcription : Functional Dissection Of Viral RNA Polymerase And Role Of Host Factor Ebp1 In Virus Multiplication
(2009-11-23)Rinderpest virus (RPV) belongs to the order Mononegavirale which comprises non segmented negative sense RNA viruses including human pathogens such as Measles, Ebola and Marburg virus. RPV is the causative agent of Rinderpest ... -
RNA polymerases in micor-sporum canis
Fungi are an important group of microorganisms which reproduce by means of specialized cells called spores. These spores are generally considered as a quiescent stage in their life cycle. However, on a suitable substrate, ... -
Role of conserved features of initiator tRNA and ribosome heterogeneity in translation initiation in Escherichia coli
Translation is one of the fundamental and core cellular processes catalysed by a ribonucleoprotein complex called ribosome. The process involves four major steps: initiation, elongation, termination and recycling. Initiation ... -
Role of DNA Methylation in Glioblastoma Development
(2018-04-11)Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and malignant of the glial tumors. These tumors may develop from lower-grade astrocytomas (diffuse astrocytoma; grade II or anaplastic astrocytoma; grade III) through a progressive ... -
Role of Hydrogen Sulfide Gas in Modulating HIV-1 Latency and Reactivation
Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 (HIV-1) remains a global public health threat, claiming 690 thousand people’s lives in 2020 and causing 1.5 million new infections. The advent of combinatorial antiretroviral therapy (ART) ... -
Role Of Idiotypic Anti-Idiotypic Network In The Sustenance Of Immunological Memory
(2009-05-25)Living amidst a milieu of pathogenic organisms, vertebrates are in constant threat of contracting one or the other disease. As a mechanism of protection against such ‘invasions’, the vertebrate immune system has evolved ... -
The Role of Initiation Factor 3 : Insights from E. Coli, Mitochondria and Mycoplasma
(2018-01-07)The process of translation initiation is the most highly regulated step of protein synthesis. In bacteria, three initiation factors (IF1, IF2 and IF3) play crucial roles during initiation. IF3 acts as an anti-association ... -
