1. Genes for cytochrome c and cytochrome c oxidase synthesis in Bacillus subtilis
Abstract : Cytochromes are heme-containing proteins that function in electron transfer reactions, e.g. respiration and photosynthesis. There are several different types of cytochromes. READ MORE

2. Bacterial Terminal Oxidases. Studies in Bacillus subtilis
Abstract : The final step in aerobic respiratory pathways is catalyzed by terminal oxidases. Bacteria generally have two or more terminal oxidases. Aerobically grown Bacillus subtilis synthesize three terminal oxidases: one cytochrome c oxidase, cytochrome caa3 and two quinol oxidases, cytochrome aa3 and cytochrome bd. READ MORE

3. Synthesis of hemes found in heme-copper oxidases of Bacillus subtilis
Abstract : The last step of aerobic respiration, the reduction of dioxygen to water, is catalysed by terminal oxidases. These oxidases can be divided into two unrelated families, the heme-copper oxidases and the cytochrome bd-type oxidases. These enzymes contain two or more heme molecules as prosthetic groups.

4. Structure and Biogenesis of Membrane Proteins
Abstract : Membrane proteins make up about one-third of the cellular proteome. The diverse roles that membrane proteins have in cells include major life-sustaining processes, making them major drug targets. READ MORE

5. Avian Malaria and Related Blood Parasites: Molecular Diversity, Ecology and Evolution
Abstract : Malaria-like parasites consist of a large group of species that infects primates, rodents, bats, lizard and birds. I have focused on parasites from the genera Haemoproteus, Plasmodium and Leucocytozoon that are infecting birds. READ MORE
