Cell Survival Strategies : Role Of Gyrase Modulatory Proteins
(2010-07-21)A steady state level of negative supercoiling is essential for chromosome condensation, initiation of replication and subsequent elongation step. DNA gyrase, found in every eubacteria, serves the essential housekeeping ... -
Delineating the Role of OsMADS1 in Auxin Distribution, Floret Identity and Floret Meristem Determinacy
(2017-12-02)Rice have highly derived florets borne on a short branch called ‘spikelet’ comprised of a pair of rudimentary glumes and sterile lemma (empty glumes) that subtends a single fertile floret. The floral organs consist of a ... -
Evolutionary Design Of Active Site Plasticity In R.KpnI For Promiscuity In Metal Ion Utilization And Substrate Recognition
(2013-03-27)Restriction modification (R-M) systems are important components of the prokaryotic arsenal against invading genomes. R-M systems directly target the foreign DNA and are often considered as primitive immune systems in ... -
Mechanism Of mom Gene Transactivation By Transcription Factor C Of Phage MU
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-04-26)Regulation of transcription initiation is the major determining event employed by the cell to control gene expression and subsequent cellular processes. The weak promoters, with low basal transcription activities, are ... -
Notch1-Induced Survival Signaling And Its Implications In Cancer Therapeutics
(2009-04-15)Notch receptors and ligands are type I transmembrane proteins that regulate development and differentiation during cell-cell contact. There are four Notch receptor homologues and five notch ligands, identified in humans ... -
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 Molecular Targets and Pathways Regulated by Rice RFL for Flowering Transition and Panicle Development
(2017-11-28)LFY of Arabidopsis is a member of a unique plant specific transcription factor family. It is involved in giving meristem a determinate floral fate by the activation of floral organ identity genes and preventing inflorescence ...
