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 ...
Understanding Functions for Fission Yeast Pre-mRNA Splicing Factors SpPrp18 and SpSlu7 in Constitutive and Alternative Splicing
(2017-11-29)
Exonic sequences of eukaryotic genes are interspersed with introns which when accurately removed from the primary transcript (pre-mRNA) results in a functional transcript. These splicing reactions are carried out by the ...
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 ...
How Much Initiator tRNA Does Escherichia Coli Need?
(2017-11-27)
The work discussed in this thesis deals with the significance of initiator tRNA gene copy number in Escherichia coli. A summary of the relevant literature discussing the process of protein synthesis, ...
Unique Response and the Survival Mechanism of Mycobacterial Subpopulations against Oxidative and Nitrite Stress
(2017-12-03)
Mycobacterial populations are known for the heterogeneity in terms of cell size, morphology, and metabolic status, which are believed to help the population survive under stress conditions. Such population heterogeneity ...
Identification, Structural and Functional Characterisation of the Molecule that Induces Asymmetric Cell Division in Mycobacteria
(2017-12-03)
Phenotypic heterogeneity in terms of cell size, morphology, and metabolic status, which are believed to help the population survive under stress conditions, is known in mycobacterial populations. Such population heterogeneity ...
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 ...
Functional Characterization of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae SUB1 in Starvation Induced Sporulation Response
(2017-12-12)
Among the various external signals perceived by yeast cells, nutrient availability is a condition to which these cells show a highly diverse biological response. Diploid cells in response to different nutritional stress ...
DNA Gyrase And Topo NM From Mycobacteria : Insights into Mechanism And Drug Action
(2017-10-26)
Maintenance of a topological homeostasis by introduction and removal of the supercoils to
relieve excessive strain on the DNA is a hallmark of topoisomerase function in the cell. The requirement of the topoisomerases during ...
Study Of Rpb4, A Component Of RNA Polymerase II As A Coordinator Of Transcription Initiation And Elongation In S. Cerevisiae
(2017-05-24)
RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is the enzyme responsible for the synthesis of all mRNAs in eukaryotic cells. As the central component of the eukaryotic transcription machinery, Pol II is the final target of transcription ...
