<p>Molecular Biology continues to make significant progress toward understanding the fundamental molecular events that are at the core of all life. Its goal is to combine the knowledge gained in the many areas of scientific inquiry employed here from molecular genetics to structural biology to computational biology to name a few to obtain new insights into the functioning of bimolecular and their role in disease causality. Members of the department utilize the full range of contemporary research tools including nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy x-ray crystallography electron microscopy mass spectrometry computer modelling bioinformatics and laser spectroscopy as well as the techniques of modern molecular biology and genetics. One of the most notable recent achievements in the department is the determination of the three-dimensional structure of the T-cell receptor a key component of the immune response. Understanding its structure and function may enable scientists to enhance the effectiveness of the immune system through the development of new highly targeted therapeutics. The book provides readers with some of the basic principles of this subject while shedding light on topics like molecular models of DNA molecular biology DNA replication RNA sequencing structures synoptic transmission Nucleic Acid notation protein interaction prediction etc.</p>

Plant Biotechnology: Trends And Techniques

₹7,508.56 M.R.P.:₹ 11,042.00 You Save: ₹3,533.44  (32.00% OFF)
<p>For centuries humankind has made improvements to crop plants through selective breeding and hybridization – the controlled pollination of plants. Plant biotechnology is an extension of this traditional plant breeding with one very important difference; plant biotechnology allows for the transfer of a greater variety of genetic information in a more precise controlled manner. Thus allowing plant breeders to develop crops with specific beneficial traits without the undesirable ones. Many of these in new plant varieties fight plant pests insects disease and weeds that can be otherwise devastating to crops. Others provide quality improvements such as tastier fruits or nutrition enhancements such as oil seeds that produce oils with lower saturated fat content.</p><p>Crop improvements like these can help provide an abundant healthful food supply and protect our environment for future generations. The present book explores contemporary techniques and applications of plant biotechnology illustrating the tremendous potential this practice has to change our world by improving the food supply. It guides students from plant biology and genetics to breeding principles and applications of plant biotechnology. This book is recommended for junior and senior level courses in plant biotechnology or plant genetics and for courses devoted to special topics at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. It is also an ideal reference for practitioners.</p>

Stem Cell Culture

<p>The process of identifying the boundaries between genes and other features in a raw DNA sequence is called genome annotation and is the domain of bioinformatics. Computer programs have been developed to analyse the data because the data itself is difficult to interpret without such programs. Gene therapy is based on modification of defective genotypes by adding functional genes made through recombinant DNA technology. Bioinformatics is being used to “mine” the human genome for gene products that might be candidates for designer pharmaceutical drugs. Genetic techniques are used in medicine to diagnose and treat inherited human disorders. Breeding analysis and transgenic modification using recombinant DNA techniques are routinely applied. While expert biologists make the best annotators their work proceeds slowly and computer programs are increasingly used to meet the highthroughput demands of genome sequencing projects. The best current technologies for annotation make use of statistical models that take advantage of parallels between DNA sequences and human language using concepts from computer science such as formal grammars. All humans have unique gene sequences. Therefore the data published by does not represent the exact sequence of every individual’s genome.</p><p>This book shares deep knowledge on the subject of stem cell culture and would be beneficial to students researchers and scientists.</p>

Textbook Of Bioinformatics

<p>Bioinformatics was applied in the creation and maintenance of a database to store biological information at the beginning of the genomic revolution such as nucleotide and amino acid sequences. Development of this type of database involved not only design issues but the development of complex interfaces whereby researchers could both access existing data as well as submit new or revised data. In order to study how normal cellular activities are altered in different disease states the biological data must be combined to form a comprehensive picture of these activities. This book aims to introduce the various avenues to which Bioinformatics can be applied as well as help further the respective causes. It is hoped that the book will serve the purpose of students and scholars on the subject and can be useful to them in allied fields.</p>

Modern Food Microbiology

<p>Food microbiology is the study of food microorganisms – how we can identify and culture them how they live how some infect and cause disease and how we can make use of their activities. Food microbiology provides information on the interaction of food and microorganisms. Microbes are single cell organisms so tiny that millions can fit into the eye of a needle. They are the oldest form of life on earth. Microbe fossils date back more than 3.5 billion years to a time when the Earth was covered with oceans that regularly reached the boiling</p><p>point hundreds of millions of years before dinosaurs roamed the earth. The field of food microbiology is a very broad one encompassing the study of microorganisms which have both benecial and deleterious effects on the quality and safety of raw and processed foods. Today this field has become an interesting and challenging subject. The focus of Food Microbiology is on the detection and analysis of food borne spoilage microorganisms. The present book covers important main aspects of interaction between microorganisms food borne illnesses and food fermentations. This book was written with the major objective of relating interaction of microorganisms and food in relation to methods in food microbiology.</p>

Nanoscience

<p>Nanoscience is the study of things that are as small as molecules. Small things act very differently from large ones. For example a gold nanowire is twenty times stronger than a large bar of gold. Electrons move differently through nanowires than through regular wires. We still have a lot to learn about the fundamental properties of nanoscale structures. Any manufacturing technology must move atoms from where they are to where we want them to be. How atoms move and the forces that act upon them during their motion are therefore critical areas of study in nanotechnology. This field is called molecular mechanics. A second central idea in nanotechnology is that of self replication. The recursion theorem is basic to self replicating systems. Along with molecular mechanics this book talks about the building blocks of Nanotechnology along with different ways in which they are being organised into larger structures that could ultimately become part of useful technologies such as computers. It dwells on subjects such as Scientific Nano Revolution implications of Nanotechnology technology of micro version progress in Nanoscience functional Nanoscience Nanostrategy in science modern concepts in Nanoscience etc.</p>
