Functional characterization of WD40-repeat protein, WDR8, in Zebrafish to gain insight into its role in Isolated Microspherophakia
WD40-repeat (WDR) proteins are a family of proteins that are characterized by widespread occurrence, low level of sequence conservation, common structural conformation (β propeller structure) and functional diversity. ... -
Genetic Analysis of Wilson Disease in a South Indian Population and Molecular Characterization of 13 Novel ATP7B Mutations
(2018-03-15)Wilson disease (WD) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by deposition of copper in the body, mainly in the liver and brain. WD patients present with hepatic, neurological, and psychiatric problems. The diagnosis ... -
Identification and Characterization of Molecular and Genetic Regulators of Cellular Senescence - Role of Free Radical Homeostasis
Aging is defined in an evolutionary biological context as a steady state decline in the specific fitness components of an organism due to internal physiological deterioration. The most profound and important contribution ... -
Investigating the mechanisms of cancer drug resistance
Clinical chemo-resistance has posed a challenge to scientists and clinicians since the development of chemotherapeutics as anticancer strategy. Mechanisms of drug resistance continue to be a subject investigation amongst ... -
Notch3 Receptor : Activation Mechanism and Association with Ovarian Cancer
The Notch signaling influences a wide spectrum of cell fate decisions, both during development and in the adult organisms. This pleiotropic role of Notch signaling in humans is attributed partially to the presence of four ... -
Spermatogenomics : Correlating Testicular Gene Expression to Human Male Infertility
(2018-06-13)Spermatogenesis is a complex and coordinated process of formation of sperms from the precursor spermatogonia, occurring inside the unique environment existing in the seminiferous epithelium. This process of development, ...
