Overview of My Research

As a professional Molecular Biology Researcher, the main goal of my research is to understand how lncRNAs interact and what are the different pathways through which these non coding RNAs control the gene expressions. I work on Primary Mammary epithelial Cell lines infected with Bacteria. I use a combination of approaches and technologies specially developed for use in my studies such as RNA-Sequencing etc. Learn more about my research and areas of study below.

About

I’ve had a passion for science and research since I was a child, and my intensive studying and hard work finally paid off in 2015 when I got selected for doctrate programme at JNU jaipur and now am about to be a qualified Biomedical Researcher. I enjoy delving into new fields of research and following the results of my experiments into the uncharted scientific territory. Learn more about my work by checking out my current projects and past publications.

Establishment of Primary Mammary Epithelial cell Lines

September 15 2016

In  an effort to gain a better understanding of the role of lncRNAs in Disease Prevention, I have recently begun with the devolopement of mammary specific epithelial cell line to which shall be now used as my experimental model. I am currently looking to expand this work by collaborating with other labs who have the facilities and prior experience to investigate this project further.

RNA Sequencing

April 12, 2017

RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) has been used widely to study specific gene expression patterns in different tissues or at different developmental stages. Current advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies have increased the knowledge of noncoding RNAs. One class of them, called long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), was characterized by being over 200 bp in length, often polyadenylated, exhibiting poor expression and conservation.

Cashmere goat (Capra hircus) represents a world renowned goat famous for production of superfine downfibre “Cashmere”. The worldwide total production of cashmere fibre is about 10000- 15000 tonnes per annum. Among all the fibres cashmere is the finest fibre of animal origin, produced in fairly large quantity in the world derived from goat breed indigenous to Asia. The physical properties of cashmere fibres can be attributed to proteins from Keratin family which are primary constituents of the fibre. Keratin proteins (KP) and keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) constitute about 90% of cashmere fibre, the said proteins are encoded by the keratin family genes. mention them as well, and be sure to write the publishing date, so to make it easier for your readers to find your specific essay or article.

Thanks for your interest in my research. Get in touch with any questions or comments regarding my work and publications. I’d love to hear from you.
