(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2019 , Article)
Curcumin, 1,7-bis(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1,6-hepta-diene-3,5-dione, is a natural product obtained from the rhizome of Curcuma longa. Curcumin has been demonstrated to be a strong antioxidant with anticancer properties ...
Enhanced production of anthraquinones by gamma-irradiated cell cultures of Rubia cordifolia in a bioreactor
(
Elsevier
, 2019 , Article)
The aim of this study was to obtain high-yielding cell cultures of Rubia cordifolia by applying gamma irradiation and subsequently scaling up for anthraquinone production in a bioreactor. Calli cultured on MS medium was ...
Identification of potential inhibitors against pathogenic missense mutations of PMM2 using a structure-based virtual screening approach.
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2019 , Article)
The autosomal recessive phosphomannomutase 2-congenital disorder of glycosylation (PMM2-CDG) is characterized by defective functioning of the PMM2 enzyme, which is necessary for the conversion of mannose-6-phosphate into ...
Elucidating the role of interacting residues of the MSH2-MSH6 complex in DNA repair mechanism: A computational approach.
(
Elsevier
, 2019 , Article)
The DNA repair system is crucial to repair the error resulting in DNA replication. MSH2-MSH6 protein complex plays a significant role in maintaining the mismatch repair mechanism. Mutations in the interface between the two ...
