Biochemical and functional characterization of the enigmatic MPPED1/MPPED2 metallophosphodiesterases
Evolutionarily conserved genes in nature have been known to perform critical functions inside the cell. Earlier bioinformatic analysis performed in our laboratory identified mammalian orthologs of Rv0805, a novel class III ... -
Dissecting the role of Ataxin 2 Binding Protein 1 in sarcomeric protein stoichiometry and generation of muscle diversity in Drosophila melanogaster
Drosophila muscles are an excellent model to study muscle development, diversity and function. Drosophila muscles consist of two major types –1. Indirect Flight Muscles (IFM), that are fibrillar; as opposed to other tubular ... -
Dissecting the Role of Calcium Binding Proteins in Muscle using Drosophila Indirect Flight Muscles as the Model System
Muscle development and function are highly synchronized processes that involve simultaneous action of several transcription factors, signalling cascades, kinases and phosphatases, ion channels, structural proteins and ... -
Genetics of Drosophila Indirect Flight Muscles : Unraveling the Roles of Genes Involved in Muscle Development and Function
Myofibrillogenesis is a complex process involving assembly of many structural proteins in an orchestrated spatio-temporal manner to form a highly ordered contractile sarcomeric unit. Mutations in the proteins involved in ... -
Role of CG9650 in Neuronal Development And Function of Drosophila Melanogaster
(2017-10-05)The nervous system is the most complex system in an organism. Functioning of the nervous system requires proper formation of neural cells, as well as accurate connectivity and signaling among them. While the major events ... -
Spatio-Temporal Control Of Drosophila Indirect Flight Muscle Development And Maintenance By The Transcription Factor Erect Wing
(2016-04-27)Muscle development involves concerted action of a repertoire of mechanisms governing myoblast proliferation, migration, fusion and differentiation. Subsequently, there are cellular events administrating proper muscle ...
