Deciphering the role of miR-631 in the pathogenesis of oral squamous cell carcinoma
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a malignant neoplasm originating from the epithelial cells of the oral cavity. The Asian population has the highest incidence of OSCC and despite advances in its treatment, the five-year ... -
Genetic and environmental determinants of swarming in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Swarming, in bacteria, is a type of group translocation phenomenon observed in several flagellated species characterized by their ability to spread across solid or semi-solid surfaces rapidly – often with a distinct colony ... -
Genetic control of Embryonic and Adult muscle development in Drosophila melanogaster by Mlp60A
Many genetic regulatory networks are required to define the overall characters in a living organism. Characters which are necessary for survival in the wild are often canalized, such that despite genetic and environmental ... -
Investigating the maintenance of X- chromosome inactivation in extra-embryonic endoderm and epiblast stem cells
In eutherian female mammals, one of the X-chromosomes gets inactivated to compensate for the expression dosage of X-linked genes between the sexes. X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) serves as a paradigm of epigenetic memory ... -
Investigating the role and regulation of Polypyrimidine tract binding protein (PTB) in isoform switching during muscle development in Drosophila melanogaster
Muscles are an excellent system to dissect the development, physiology and evolution of cell heterogeneity and isoform switching. The vertebrate skeletal muscles are composed of heterogeneous muscle fibres. These fibres ... -
Investigation of the stress-induced translatome of matrix-deprived cancer cells
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, in spite of all the ongoing research in the field of oncology. While there have been some breakthroughs in the past 50 years, metastatic tumors remain the bane ...
