Studies on Rotavirus Nonstructural Protein 5 (NSP5)
Rotavirus is the most important agent of viral gastroenteritis in humans and animals and is responsible for about 600,000 deaths per annum. Most of these deaths occur in the developing countries and India is estimated to ...
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 ...
Understanding the Role of Rab22A in Recycling Endosome Biogenesis and Melanocyte Pigmentation
(2018-08-28)
Recycling embosoms (REs) are transient intermediates of endosomal network, constantly generated from early/sorting endosomes (EEs/SEs). Conventionally, these organelles function in recycling of many growth/nutrient/signalling ...
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 ...
Salmonella Pathogenesis in Dendritic Cells : Stealthy Approach Against Adaptive Immune Response
Synopsis of work done by Mayuri Gogoi (SR No. 10-09-00-10-31-11-1-08534) for the award of Ph.D. degree in the Faculty of Science, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India.
Thesis title: Salmonella pathogenesis in ...
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 ...
Delineating the Roles for WNT Signaling During PRRs Driven Inflammatory Responses : Implications for Host-Pathogen Interaction
The mammalian immune system consists of the innate and adaptive arm/s that protect the host against pathogenic infections in a highly coordinated process involving multiple steps. Innate immune cells such as macrophages ...
Functional Insights into the Canonical and Non-canonical Roles of the Fission Yeast Splicing Factor SpPrp16
The spliceosome is a large multi-megadalton RNA-protein machine which facilitates the
removal of introns from eukaryotic nascent pre-mRNAs by two concerted
transesterification reactions. The spliceosome is comprised of ...
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 ...
Deciphering Functions & Interactions of Fission Yeast Splicing Factor SpSlu7 Relevant to Constitutive & Alternative Splicing
The fission yeast genome with abundant multi-intronic transcripts, degenerate splice signals and presence of alternative splicing machinery is an attractive unicellular fungal model to investigate splice-site recognition ...
