The project titled, “Macrocyclic and Carbocyclic Constructions by SET Oxidations of Styrenes, Allenes and Cyclopropanes” was sanctioned by the Department of Science and Technology with budget of 17 lakhs.
The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) plays an essential role in many cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, proliferation, apoptosis and angiogenesis. Proteasome inhibitors like Bortezomib (Velcade, PS-341), has been successfully used. . .
This work is in collaboration with Dr. Sankarprasad Bhuniya, Amrita Center for Industrial Research and Innovation (ACIRI), Amrita University, Coimbatore. His lab synthesizes synthetic derivatives with therapeutic as well as diagnostic. . .
Mitochondria continually undergo fusion and fission along with motility responding to cellular signaling. Our goal is to systematically evaluate the regulatory switches that govern the dynamics. Although the machineries mediating. . .
Many cancer cells develop resistance to the apoptotic signals and flourish in the system. We are trying to target these defiant cells by inducing an alternative cell death pathway through. . .
The Centre for Materials Research will engage in research and development activities in the broad areas encompassing the individual developments in, or an integration of, advanced materials and green technologies. . .
Nowadays researchers are interested in cell patterning and here is a method used for patterning mammalian cells that does not require access to photolithographic capabilities. This work describes a versatile. . .
Envenomation incapacitates the snake’s prey by interfering with specific aspects of physiological function such as nerve transmission and hemostasis. Since the action of venom components is highly specific, many venom. . .
