Institute of Bioinformatics and Applied Biotechnology supports and leads the biotechnology academic ecosystem through its academic and new initiatives in Biotechnology, Bioinformatics and Big Data.
In search of antivirals against Dengue, drug repurposing studies have been made using 4 non structural viral protein domains as drug targets. Our studies indicate that the drug compounds tolcapone, cefprozil, delavirdine and indinavir can be potential therapeutic compounds against Dengue infections.
Protein domains are crucial for determining protein functionality, serving as structural and functional units essential for diverse biological processes. This study delves into the intricate world of the structures of these domains, focuses on the strength of interactions within two-domain proteins and compares strong (permanent) and weak (transient) interations. The results provide better understanding of multi-domain protein structure, function and folding principles
Electronics City Industrial Township Authority or ELCITA, which manages the Electronics City area of Bengaluru where IBAB is located, recently honored the institute with a “Certificate of Participation: Zero Waste to Landfill Initiative”. The certificate is given to organizations who have diligently and actively participated in this initiative and have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to environmental sustainability.
Dec 13,2023: IBAB is delighted to announce that faculty member Dr. Amanjot Singh has been awarded a DBT/Wellcome Trust India Alliance Intermediate Award. Congratulations, Aman!
On 10-11 November 2023, Prof. Kshitish K Acharya interacted with students and teachers at an inter-school science fest [ “ವಿಜ್ಞಾನ ಹ(ಅ)ಬ್ಬ(ಬ್ಬಾ)!!” ] at Amrita, Gartikere (near Shivamogga), organized by an association of government schoolteachers of Amrita and HS Ganesh Murthy Shikshana Prathishthana. The discussion topics included ‘Scientific temper for public’ (students) and ‘Challenges in science education’ (teachers). The event received media coverage.
An article recently published in PLOS One by Prof. Gayatri Saberwal and team regarding the status of clinical trials in India has received extensive media coverage:”Mendiratta J, Vaswani R N, Saberwal G. Representation from India in multinational, interventional, Phase 2 or 3 trials registered in Clinical Trials Registry-India: A cross-sectional study. PLOS ONE, 18(9): e0284434.”https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0284434 (2023)
