This thesis entitled ‘ Unusual Acylation Properties of Type II Fatty Acid Biosynthesis Acyl Carrier Proteins’ describes the discovery of self-acylation and malonyl transferase activity in acyl carrier proteins involved in ...

One of the defining characteristics of the brain is its plasticity, which is the ability to alter and reorganize neuronal circuits. The brain is constantly being shaped and moulded by the external world through endogenous ...

Oxidative stress is a universal phenomenon experienced by both aerobic and anaerobic organisms. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated during the stress, which can damage most cellular components including proteins, ...

The Langmuir – Blodgett (LB) technique is about forming insoluble monolayer on the surface of aqueous solution and recently, it has emerged as one of the best method to study floating monolayer at the air – water interface. ...

A signal transduction process refers to chain of highly regulated biochemical steps which results in the transfer of signal in response to a stimulus in the extracellular environment to the intracellular compartments such ...

Biological processes are so complicated that to understand the mechanisms underlying the functioning of biomolecules it is inevitable to study them from various perspectives and with a wide range of tools. Understanding ...
