Structural, Biophysical And Biochemical Studies On Mannose-Specific Lectins
(2013-01-17)
For a long time, the scientific community underestimated the value of carbohydrates and the approach of most scientists to the complex world of glycans was apprehensive. The scenario, however, has changed today. With the ...
Energetics Of Protein-Carbohydrate Recognition
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-04-28)
The work embodied in this thesis pertains to an attempt to understand better, the molecular basis of protein-carbohydrate recognition. For this purpose a systematic study was undertaken, not only of the energetics of ...
Non-repetitive Structures In Proteins : Effects Of Side-chain And Solvent Interactions With The Backbone
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-05-12)
The work presented in this thesis deals with the analysis of protein crystal structures with an emphasis on the stereochemical aspects of the folded conformation of proteins. The various analyses described have been performed ...
Starvation Response In Mycobacterium Smegmatis : A Tale Of Two Proteins
(2010-10-19)
The Dps (DNA-Binding Protein from Starved Cells) proteins are a class of stress-specific proteins with a major role in protecting DNA during the stationary phase of bacterial growth, through direct physical binding as well ...
