Mechanism of Recycling of Ribosomes Stalled on mRNAs in Escherichia Coli
(2018-07-28)Studies reported in this thesis address the question of how pre-termination ribosomal complexes stalled during translation of mRNA are recycled. The process of recycling of the stalled ribosomes involves many translational ... -
Metabolism Of Queuosine, A Modified Nucleoside, In Escherichia Coli And Caenorhabditis Elegans And Dual Function Of Bovine Mitochondrial Initiation Factor 2 As Initiation Factors 1 And 2 In Escherichia Coli
(2009-06-29)The studies reported in this thesis address firstly, the biology of a modified nucleoside, Queuosine (Q) and secondly, the properties of mitochondrial translation initiation factor 2. A summary of the relevant literature ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Studies On DNA Gyrase From Mycobacteria : Insights Into Its Mechanism Of Action And Elucidation Of Its Interaction With The Transcription Machinery
(2010-09-30)Packaging of genomic DNA by proteins and super coiling into chromatin and chromatin-like structures (in bacteria) influences nearly all nuclear process such as replication, transcription, repair, and recombination. A ... -
Studies On Initiator tRNA Selection On The Ribosomes In Escherichia Coli
(2009-05-06)The studies reported in this thesis address the aspects of initiator tRNA selection in Escherichia Coli. A summary of the relevant literature discussing the process of ptotein biosynthesis in general and initiator tRNA ... -
T Cell Epitopes Of PE And PPE Family Of Proteins Of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis And Analysis Of Their Vaccine Potential
(2010-03-09)One-third of the world’s population is latently infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which causes over 2 million deaths every year. The current live attenuated vaccine, Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG), protects against ... -
Transcriptional Regulation And The Role Of Galactose Metabolism In The Virulence Of Candida Albicans
(2009-06-24)Candida albicans, a commensal of gastrointestinal and uro-vaginal tract can cause superficial as well as life threatening disseminated infections under conditions of lowered immunity of the host such as HIV infection, ...
