Crystallographic and analytical ultracentrifugation studies of the E. coli acetohydroxy acid synthase I enzyme
This thesis ellucidates the mechanism of activation and regulation of AHAS I enzyme from Escherichia coli that was characterised using crystallographic and sedimentation velocity analytical ultracentrifugation studies. AHAS ... -
Deep Mutational Scanning Analyses of Protein Stability and Function
Full text Embargo up to Sep 2026 Protein stability is critical to understanding protein function, folding, and interactions within living organisms. It plays a key role in protein engineering, where designing stable ... -
Determinants of protein stability and function inferred from saturation mutagenesis and next-generation sequencing
Proteins play a central role in all biological processes. Despite a similar underlying composition, they exhibit immense diversity in structures and functions, a subject of great interest. The research presented in this ... -
Mutational sensitivity of CcdB mutants in their native operonic context
Determining the precise effects of thousands of point mutants on protein structure, stability, and activity is a challenging task. Chapter 1 introduces how next-generation sequencing technologies exploit phenotypic screens ... -
Protein folding and Disulphide rich peptide(s) folds
Protein folding and protein folds are two sides of a coin. The study of protein folding processes is crucial for advancing our knowledge in fundamental cellular processes while the study of protein folds is important for ... -
Structural and functional characterization of a bacterial TenpIN type III toxin-antitoxin system and its potential as an antibacterial strategy
Bacterial type III toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems were first identified as abortive infection systems wherein a phage infection causes altruistic suicide of the bacterium to prevent bacteriophage spread among its clonal ... -
Structural insights into assembly and regulation of HigBA toxin-antitoxin system from Escherichia coli
In the last few decades, bacterial Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems have been identified to play crucial roles in bacterial survival under stressful conditions and virulence. TA systems are pair of genetic elements where one ...
