Role of autophagy in reducing peripheral neuropathy and diabetic peripheral neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy occurs when there is damage to the central or peripheral nervous system due to injury, disease, diabetes, or drug use. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is a distinct feature observed in neuropathic ...
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 ...
Design and characterization of stabilized mutants of the SARS-CoV-2 Receptor Binding Domain
The global pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has resulted in millions of deaths worldwide, highlighting the urgent need for effective vaccines. The trimeric spike glycoprotein, particularly the receptor-binding domain (RBD), ...
Characterization of a Staphylococcus aureus multi-enzyme complex involved in the phenotypic switch and host-pathogen interactions
RNA homeostasis is maintained by synchronizing RNA synthesis and RNA degradation. These processes are synchronized to growth conditions and environmental stimuli, thus enabling bacterial survival in diverse environmental ...
Electrophysiological studies investigating drug effects on hHCN1 channels and Unravelling pore dynamics in Pannexin channels
Hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) ion channel stands out for its unique characteristics, including sensitivity to transmembrane voltage and cyclic nucleotides, as well as its non-selective passage ...
Plasticity Paradigms: Navigating Protein Conformational Dynamics and Phenotypic Variability in Biological Systems
The complex dynamics and responses of biological systems to environmental cues are shaped by their inherent plasticity and adaptability. This biological plasticity, operational at multiple levels - ranging from the molecular ...
Interaction of hnRNPK with RNA and characterization of its phase separation behavior
Heterogenous ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs) are a class of proteins initially discovered to protect the nascent transcripts before they develop into primary mRNAs. They are involved in almost all the stages of mRNA metabolism, ...
Computational investigation of peripheral membrane protein "Pleckstrin homology domain" and its regulation
The peripheral membrane protein repertoire is around 25% composed of the Pleckstrin homology
domain (PHD). PHD are component of the multidomain protein and plays the role of an adaptor in
recruitment of these proteins ...
Structural and functional characterization of human regulator of telomere elongation helicase 1 (RTEL1)
RTEL1 is an ATP-dependent DNA helicase that translocates on the single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) from 5′ to 3′ direction. It is an iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster and DEAH motif-containing helicase. RTEL1 has been shown to play ...
