Saptaparna Dasgupta, Bennett University Human exonuclease V (EXO5) is an ATR-regulated nuclease that is specific to the DNA structure. It is also associated with BLM, to mark the start point of the replication fork in a strand of DNA. Research states that an elevated level of EXO5 in tumor cells results in increased mutation within […]
Sumedha B S, Bangalore University Cyclin Proteins: The cell cycle is the sequence of processes that take place in a cell which ultimately leads to its division into two daughter cells. The mechanism of the cell cycle is regulated by a type of protein called “Cyclins”. Cyclins bind and activate cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Cyclins were […]
Avani Dave, Jai Hind College Dinoflagellates can be best described as a class of single-celled organisms forming a major constituent of the marine eukaryotes ecosystem that plays an essential role in aquatic primary production. That being said, several dinoflagellates are notorious for their harmful algal bloom (HAB) species, releasing high levels of marine toxins which […]
Husna, Amity University Kolkata Aging is characterized by the progressive loss of physiological integrity which results in impaired body functions leading to a greater risk for diseases and death. This deterioration of the biological clock of our body is a major risk factor for several diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s disease. […]
Biswadeep Sen, Amity University Kolkata Every cancerous outline hosts various problems for us, and cervical cancer is no different. But recent studies show that we have indeed found a way to tackle these “slippery opponents” of ours and might be closer to finding a permanent solution. The oncoproteins E6 and E7 of the Human Papillomavirus […]
Soumili Chakraborty, Amity University, Kolkata Stem cells undergo asymmetric cell division to give rise to two daughter cells: One daughter cell which is similar to that of the original stem cell, And the second daughter cell differentiates into a non-stem cell. Stem cells are largely studied to understand the underlying mechanisms, by which they contribute to […]
