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 ...
Breast Cancer Susceptibility Gene 1 (BRCA1) And Breast Cancer
(2009-04-15)
Breast Cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1) & Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies affecting women worldwide. About 5-10% of all cases are estimated to be familial. Mutations in the BRCA1 ...
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 ...
Diversity In Indian Equine Rotaviruses And Structure And Function Of Rotavirus Non Structural Protein 4 (NSP4)
(2009-03-11)
Rotaviruses, members of the family Reoviridae, are the major etiologic agents of severe, acute dehydrating diarrhea in the young of many mammalian species, including humans, calves and foals. Recent estimates indicate an ...
Molecular Characterisation Of The ATP Binding Cassette (ABC) Transporter Type FtsE And FtsX Proteins Of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
(2008-09-30)
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the principal causative agent of tuberculosis (TB) in
humans, is considered to be a successful pathogen owing to the elicitation of multidrug resistance, ability to survive inside macrophage ...
Role Of Matrix Protein Of Rinderpest Virus In Viral Morphogenesis
(2008-10-20)
Rinderpest virus is an enveloped Nonsegmented Negative Stranded RNA Virus (NNSV) belonging to the genus Morbillivirus in the Family Paramyxoviridae and the causative organism for “cattle plague”. The virion has a transport ...
Functional Characterization Of The Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Splicing Factor, Prp17 In pre-mRNA Splicing And Cell Cycle Progression: An Analysis Through Global Expression Profiling, Protein Interactions And Spliceosomal Associations
(2007-08-30)
The presence of introns in all the eukaryotic genomes identified so far underscores the fundamental and ubiquitous role of pre-mRNA splicing. The spliceosomal machinery, comprised of five small nuclear RNAs and several ...
Transcriptional Analysis Of The Principal Cell Division Gene ftsZ Of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis And Mycobacterium Smegmatis
(2009-03-04)
The success of Mycobacterium tuberculosis as a pathogen is due to its remarkable
ability to: (i). adapt to and survive inside activated macrophages under nonproliferating condition, (ii). put up drug resistance ...
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 ...
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 ...
