RIST-11 Lecture : 'Multi-protein Complex Purification' at MU
Date : 8th May, 2015
INVITATION FOR RIST POPULAR TALK
You are cordially invited to attend the monthly popular talk series organized by the RESEARCH INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY (RIST), IMPHAL
Title:
Multi-protein Complex Purification: Discovery of Novel Genes and Elucidation of Disease Mechanisms of Human Genetic Diseases
By
Dr. Thiyam Ramsing Singh
Ramalingaswami Re-entry fellow
Department of Biotechnolog, Manipur University
ABSTRACT:
Genomic integrity is critical for the survival of an organism and is controlled by a network of DNA damage response (DDR) that involved elaborate signal transduction that sense, recruit and repair the damaged DNA. Repair of DNA damage during S phage of the cell cycle, involving the collision of replisome with an obstruction in the DNA is particularly challenging for the cell.
Discovering new proteins involved in sensing and repairing of the replication stress has helped in elucidating the molecular mechanism of human diseases. Since many chemotherapeutic agents activate the DNA damage pathway and trigger cell death by promoting replication fork collapse, elucidating the mechanisms of cellular response to and repair of fork collapse will help in developing new drugs that can sensitize the drug resistant cancer cells.
