Abstract RAS subfamily belongs to a class of proteins called small GTPase, which are a group of hydrolase enzymes that can bind (‘on state’) and hydrolyze (‘off state’) guanosine triphosphate (GTP). Hence, RAS proteins act as binary molecular switches and play a consequential role in intracellular signal transduction which regulates processes such as actin cytoskeletal […]
Abstract Haplotype is a lineable combination of alleles at multiple loci that are transmitted together. The importance and application of these haplotypes has been gradually increased in forensic sciences. After Y STR’s on Chromosome Y and Mitochondrial DNA now the current focus is on haplotype study involving X STR’s on Chromosome X. Fathers transmit their […]
Abstract The world of life science research has changed dramatically over the past decade. Researchers now rely on miniaturized systems with tiny cards or chips that contain virtual laboratories on a microscopic scale. Results are achieved in minimum time using smaller amounts of reagents. The use of life processes and materials was perfected in millions […]
Abstract Neuregulin-1 (NRG-1) is a gene that helps regulate synaptic plasticity and mutations in NRG-1 have been found in patients with schizophrenia. Researchers have found that the prefrontal cortex expresses much higher levels of NRG-1 in humans with schizophrenia. Researchers have found that the mice grown with over expression of NRG-1 had schizophrenia like symptoms […]
Abstract Glycation is the non-enzymatic addition or insertion of sugar molecules into DNA, proteins and lipids that occur in biological molecules. The glycation of DNA gives rise to characteristic nucleotide adducts, some of which have been found to increase in oxidative stress. The glycation causes damage to DNA which is associated with mutagenesis, carcinogenesis and […]
Abstract Diabetes, growing global health burden is a Multifactorial, heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by deficiency or failure in maintaining normal glucose homeostasis. The prevalence of Diabetes is rising across the globe at an alarming rate with India and china facing the greatest challenges with worsening trend affecting younger age groups. Diabetes and its complications […]
Abstract Micro propagation has the potential to provide very high multiplication rates of selected true genotypes. It allows rapid production of high quality, disease free and uniform planting materials irrespective of weather or season. The paper highlights studies on the same, outlines potential of using single to multiple co-cultures combinations of microbe that were in […]
Abstract Diabetes is prevalent world-wide and is stated to be a silent killer. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action or both. There are hundreds of medicinal plants that have a long history of curative properties against various diseases and ailments. A variety of […]
Abstract Cotton the white gold of our country has its high yield in the regions of AP. The Industrial wastes of these cotton industries are of high solid powder content and are rich in cellulose, which is often dumped as such into the soil. This soil containing cotton wastes is a good source for a […]
