Abstract:
SERINC5 is a restriction factor for retroviruses, antagonized by Nef of primate lentiviruses, by glycoGag of Moloney Murine Leukaemia Virus (MoMLV) and by S2 of Equine Infectious Anaemia virus (EIAV). In addition, SERINC5 sensitizes HIV-1 to neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) targeting the MPER in gp41. However, since the identification of SERINC5 as an inhibitor of retrovirus infectivity, many features of the host factor await clarification, notably the molecular mechanisms of restriction and viral counteraction. Furthermore, SERINC5 cellular role beyond restriction is still obscure. This thesis

Abstract:
During the purification of the enzyme glycogen synthase from the muscle of the nematode Ascaris suum, approximately 70% of the glycogen synthase activity can be separated from the bulk of cellular glycogen by centrifugation for 60 min at 105,000 x . The glycogen synthase in the supernatant fraction has an Mr of 1.2 x 106 as determined by Sepharose 4B gel filtration chromatography. The glycogen synthase in this high molecular weight complex (glycogen primer complex) can be further purified by ConA-Sepharose affinity chromatography; the enzyme activity was eluted with 100 .mM a-methylmannoside.

Glycogen Phosphorylase (GP) is the regulatory enzyme that catalyses the first step in glycogen degradation and is a potential enzyme target for therapeutic intervention in the treatment of diabetes.

Blocking the interactions between Gl and GPa should reduce high blood glucose levels in a diabetic person. A segment of the 16 amino acid segment was chosen for a small molecule peptidomimetric approach, and de nova design from this segment identified the pyridone ring as apotential scaffold. Th

Abstract:
It has long been observed that some organo-fluorine compounds exhibit enhanced biological activity over their non-fluorinated precursors, however reasons for these unusual properties still remain poorly understood. An explanation which has been widely used relates to the ability of the C-F fragment of the analog to participate in hydrogen-bonding interactions with its protein receptor. For this reason, fluorinated carbohydrates have been used as hydrogen-bonding probes with a number of proteins. Thus there exists a need for a systematic investigation into the hydrogen-bonding ability of the C

Functional metabolism of storage carbohydrates is vital to plants and animals. The water-soluble glycogen in animal cells and the amylopectin which is the major component of water-insoluble starch granules residing in plant plastids are chemically similar as they consist of α-1,6 branched α-1,4 glucan chains. Synthesis and degradation of transitory starch and of glycogen are accomplished by a set of enzymatic activities that to some extend are also similar in plants and animals. Chain elongation, branching, and debranching are achieved by synthases, branching enzymes, and debranching enzymes,

The depletion of muscle and liver glycogen observed during prolonged submaximal exercise is associated with fatigue. Re-synthesis of glycogen stores during the recovery period after exercise is therefore essential for the recovery of endurance exercise capacity.
