Structural and functional characterization of peste des petits ruminants virus coded hemagglutinin protein using various in-silico approaches

Peste des petits ruminants (PPR), a disease of socioeconomic importance has been a serious threat to small ruminants.The causative agent of this disease is PPR virus Course a pied - Homme - Vetements - Pantalon - Track (PPRV) which belongs to the genus Morbillivirus.Hemagglutinin (H) is a PPRV coded transmembrane protein embedded in the viral envel

A new method for functional analysis of plastid EMBRYO-DEFECTIVE PPR genes by efficiently constructing cosuppression lines in Arabidopsis

Abstract Background Pentatricopeptide-repeat proteins (PPRs) characterized by tandem arrays of a degenerate 35-amino-acid repeat (PPR motif) can bind a single strand RNA and regulate organelle gene expression at the post-transcriptional level, including RNA cleavage, splicing, editing and stability etc.PPRs are conserved in all eukaryotes and extre

Integration of sensory quanta in cuneate nucleus neurons in vivo.

Discriminative M Boots touch relies on afferent information carried to the central nervous system by action potentials (spikes) in ensembles of primary afferents bundled in peripheral nerves.These sensory quanta are first processed by the cuneate nucleus before the afferent information is transmitted to brain networks serving specific perceptual an
