Cell Surface Of Mycobacterium Smegmatis At The Stationary Phase : Regulation Of Gene Expression
(2009-05-21)Tuberculosis remains one of the oldest diseases known to mankind but still persists as a very major risk. Discovery of several antimycobacterials was marked by a steady decline in the active cases of pulmonary tuberculosis. ... -
Expanding The Horizon Of Mycobacterial Stress Response : Discovery Of A Second (P)PPGPP Synthetase In Mycobacterium Smegmatis
(2015-12-21)The stringent response is a highly conserved physiological response mounted by bacteria under stress (Ojha and Chatterji, 2001; Magnusson et al., 2005; Srivatsan and Wang, 2007; Potrykus and Cashel, 2008). Until recently, ... -
Role of an RNA Polymerase Interacting Protein, MsRbpA, from Mycobacterium smegmatis in Phenotypic Tolerance to Rifampicin
Rifampicin is a non-competitive inhibitor of bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP). The knowledge about the mechanism of action of this drug has emanated from the genetic and the biochemical studies carried out on Escherichia ... -
Role of RNA Polymerase ω Subunit in Metabolism and Stress Response
RNA polymerase (RNAP) is the key enzyme in transcription and it is a multi-subunit enzyme made up of alpha, beta, beta prime and omega subunit in the stoichiometry of α2ββω. Except for the smallest subunit ω (rpoZ), all ... -
Structural And Evolutionary Studies On Protein-Protein Interactions
(2014-05-27)The last few decades have witnessed an upsurge in the availability of large-scale data on genomes and genome-scale information. The development of methods to understand the trends and patterns from large scale data promised ...
