Role of conserved features of initiator tRNA and ribosome heterogeneity in translation initiation in Escherichia coli
Translation is one of the fundamental and core cellular processes catalysed by a ribonucleoprotein complex called ribosome. The process involves four major steps: initiation, elongation, termination and recycling. Initiation ...
Genetics of Glioblastoma: Insights into Biology and Therapy Resistance
The central nervous system contains the neural stem cells which differentiate and give rise to the neurons as well as the glial cells which are non-neuronal in nature and provide support and protection to neurons. Unlike ...
Role of SIRT6 in the Regulation of Glucose Metabolism and Fatty Acid Uptake in Heart
The adult heart heavily relies on fatty acid for most of its energy supplies. The heart derives most of the fatty acid from circulation. Hence, fatty acid uptake forms a crucial step in cardiac metabolism. Studies have ...
Regulation of Hepatitis C Virus life-cycle by lncRNA HULC: crosstalk with other host factors
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a positive sense single-stranded RNA virus. It belongs to the family Flaviviridae and the genus hepacivirus. Following the receptor-mediated endocytosis, HCV genome is released into the cytoplasm, ...
Biochemical, Genetic and Molecular characterization of TCP3 and TCP4 transcription factors in Arabidopsis thaliana
The TEOSINTE BRANCHED1, CYCLOIDEA, PROLIFERATING CELL FACTORs (TCP) family of proteins consists of plant-specific, non-canonical basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors that perform diverse developmental processes. ...
Manipulating Bacterial and Host Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS)- based mechanisms to potentiate killing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb)
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is evolutionarily equipped to resist exogenous reactive oxygen species but shows vulnerability to an increase in endogenous ROS (eROS). Since eROS is an unavoidable consequence of aerobic ...
Role of Hydrogen Sulfide Gas in Modulating HIV-1 Latency and Reactivation
Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 (HIV-1) remains a global public health threat, claiming 690 thousand people’s lives in 2020 and causing 1.5 million new infections. The advent of combinatorial antiretroviral therapy (ART) ...
Decoding Epigenetic Regulators in Cancer: Acetylation of HIF2A by Histone Acetyltransferase 1 (HAT1) is essential for executing hypoxia response in glioma
Gliomas are tumors of the central nervous system arising from glial cells. Based on the origin of the cell type, it can be astrocytoma, oligodendroglioma, and ependymoma. Astrocytoma is the most common type of glioma, ...

Submitted by Atul Pradhan (S.R. No. 03-04-00-10-11-14-1-11678)
Background Information: Mycobacteria maintain heterogeneity in ...
Transcriptional Regulation of Fatty Acid Transport by Sirtuin 2
The heart is a highly dynamic organ and under normal physiological conditions, it is heavily dependent on fatty acid oxidation to meet its energy requirements (Abumrad and Goldberg 2016). Fatty acid transport is a crucial ...
