Receptor guanylyl cyclase C: a modulator of intestinal fluid and ion secretion; regulator of cell proliferation Identified the first mutations in humans that are the cause of familial secretory diarrheal syndrome We now wish to characterize mouse models that mimic human disease What are the changes that occur in the gut? Can we find ways to modulate GC- C function? Approaches: Transgenic mouse models; NGS to identify differentially regulated genes. mirnas Gut organoid cultures to identify the roles of GC-C in gut development: is there a cell non-autonomous regulation of intestinal stem cell function?

4 Ramray Bhat, MBBS, PhD Assistant Professor, MRDG, IISc GA07 Biological Sciences Building MRDG, IISc Research Focus: morphology and microenvironment Ovarian cancer metastasis An important focus of our group is the investigation of mechanisms by which ovarian cancer cells undergo metastasis. Whereas we are beginning to understand how spheroids, metastatic multicellular collectives form, an understanding of how they explode and attach upon reaching prospective sites of colonization remains ill-elucidated. The incoming student will have an opportunity to tackle this translational cancer-biological question in collaboration with clinicians and physical scientists.

6 TANWEER HUSSAIN s Lab PROJECT: Understanding protein synthesis and its regulation The synthesis of proteins using genetic information encoded in mrna is tightly controlled and much of this regulation occurs during the initial steps of translation. In higher organisms the translation initiation is much more regulated than in prokaryotes. Although the regulation of translation initiation is critical for many life processes, the molecular mechanism(s) of its regulation is poorly understood. Understanding translation initiation and its regulation is essential because dysregulation of initiation is associated with several human metabolic disorders and cancer. We aim to understand the molecular mechanisms involved in the regulation of translation initiation using biochemical, mutational and structural approaches. Cryo-electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography will be used to determine 3D structures of the proteins and the macromolecular complexes involved. There are 2 PhD projects aiming to elucidate two separate mechanisms by which translation initiation is regulated. Steps involved in determination of 3D structure by cryo-electron microscopy
7 Developmental and Biomedical Genetics Laboratory ( GB03) Prof. Upendra Nongthomba s group Primarily our group is interested on understanding the molecular and genetic basis of myopathies and neurodegenerative disorders, using the genetically amenable model organisms, Drosophila Fruit fly and Danio rerio - Zebrafish. We also use both the model systems for dissecting muscle and neural related Immunity responses, Drug screening, Functional genomics and Biomechanics studies. Our long term goals include providing therapeutic solutions and developing new diagnostic tools for protein aggregate myopathies, Dystrophies, neurodegenerative diseases and age-related disorders.
