Carbon Starvation Genes Mediate the Cross-talk Between Metabolism and Pathogenesis of Salmonella Typhimurium
Carbon starvation genes mediate the cross-talk between metabolism and pathogenesis of Salmonella Typhimurium Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) can infect a wide range of host animals to cause diseases ... -
DNA Methylation Landscape of Astrocytoma : Role of Fibromodulin (FMOD), a Hypomethylated and Upregulated Gene, in Glioblastoma Cell Migration
(2018-08-30)Astrocytoma is defined as the neoplasia of astrocytes, the most abundant non-neuronal glial cells in brain. According to the WHO classification, the different grades of astrocytoma are- gradeI/pilocytic astrocytoma (benign ... -
Enterovirus Non-structural Protein 3A Interactions with Sec12, an upstream Component of the COPII Secretory Pathway and Implications for Viral Replication
(2018-07-20)Polioviruses, Coxsackieviruses, and Echoviruses belonging to the Picornaviridae family of positive-stranded, non-enveloped viruses, are highly infectious and associated with a range of illnesses in children from minor ... -
Exploring the Unusual Properties and Non-canonical Roles of Promiscuous Restriction Endonuclease KpnI
Restriction modification (RM) systems are important components of bacterial immune system. Their primary function is to protect the bacteria from invading bacteriophages. Based on the subunit composition, enzyme properties ... -
Functional Insights into PRR-Driven SHH Signaling : Implications for Host-Microbial Interactions
(2018-07-26)Mycobacterium are important human pathogens and their strength lies in establishing acute infections, latent infections as well as co-existing with other dreadful infectious agents like HIV. The success of mycobacterium ... -
Host-Pathogen Interactions in Hepatitis C Virus Infection : Deciphering the Role of Host Proteins and MicroRNAs
(2018-07-19)Host-pathogen interactions in Hepatitis C Virus infection: Deciphering the role of host proteins and microRNAs Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a positive sense single stranded RNA virus belonging to the Hepacivirus genus of ... -
Initiation of protein synthesis : Role of the three consecutive GC base pairs in the anticodon stem of initiator tRNAs
The presence of the three consecutive GC base pairs in the anticodon stems of the initiator tRNAs (3GC base pairs) are a highly conserved and a vital feature of the initiator tRNAs in all the domains of life. How this ... -
Physiological Role of Folate Dehydrogenase in One Carbon Metabolism of Escherichia Coli
(2018-06-08)Thesis addresses the physiological role of formyl tetrahydrofolate synthetase (Fhs) and bifunctional folate dehydrogenase (FolD) in folate mediated one carbon metabolism in bacteria. Thesis consists of 5 chapters. First ... -
Proteomics-based Identification of Serum Biomarkers : Role of Secreted MCSF and CRP in Glioma Pathogenesis
Gliomas are the neoplasia of glial cells present in the brain and comprises of more than 70% of all the neoplasms of the central nervous system. They consist of a family of primary brain tumors that are categorized based ... -
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 ... -
Role of VILAMBIT Genes Controlling Flowering Time and Jasmonic Acid Signaling in Arabidopsis
(2018-08-14)The transition to flowering is an important decision for plants since seed-setting and the survival of the progeny depend on the environmental conditions prevalent during this transition. Therefore, to ensure maximum ... -
Topoisomerase i from mycobacterium tuberculosis : Dynamics of enzyme function and inhibitor development
Inside the bacterial cell, the genetic material is maintained in a negatively supercoiled state within a compact space. The supercoiling of the genome undergoes topological perturbations during a variety of cellular processes ... -
Understanding Phage MU Mom Regulation and Function
(2018-06-11)Mu is a temperate bacteriophage which infects Escherichia coli and several other Gram negative enteric bacteria. It is an extraordinary phage in several respects and has carved a special niche for itself both as a genetic ... -
Understanding the SNARE Dynamics During Melanosome Biogenesis
(2018-08-11)Melanosome biogenesis is a highly regulated endosomal maturation process wherein structural fibers harbouring immature melanosomes acquires its biosynthetic proteins through the secretory pathway and finally matures into ...
