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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ...
