Arya Sukumar, College of Agriculture, Vellayani The cyclic interaction between myosin and actin gives striated muscle its force-generating characteristics. The indirect flying muscles (IFM) of Drosophila are developed for rapid oscillatory movements. The correlation between the WYR domain of flightin and myosin was delineated by researchers at the University of Vermont, who discovered the ultrastructural […]
Ananya Ghosal, MAKAUT (WB) Agricultural sectors are being harmed by Begomoviruses which cause a huge loss to economically important crops. To prevent such losses, intricate studies of viral genomes and functions are needed. The genomes of viruses are directly exploited by infectious clone approaches and applications. The critical instrument for basic characterization of the notable […]
Shrestha Dutta, Amity University Kolkata SARS-CoV2 belongs to the Coronaviridae family in the Nidovirales order. Coronavirus resembles crown-like spikes on the external surface of the viral envelope. CoVsare miniature in size (65–125 nm in measurement) and contain a single-stranded (+)-RNA as the genetic material of 26-32kb long. Coronaviruses are generally grouped into alpha (a), beta […]
