Research Associates
 

Dr (Mrs.) Sushmita Sahu (M.Sc. Marine Biology, Ph.D. Marine Biology)

Graduated from the Department of Marine Sciences, Berhampur University, ORISSA. She is involved in studying the salt regulation of catalase gene expression and its activity in rice.

   
Ms. Priyanka Das (M.Sc. Botany, M.Phil. Botany)
Guest Scientist from Dept. of Botany, Utkal University

Inducible characteristics of Cuscuta catalase.

We are looking for two more graduated students (NET-qualified) to work on raising a series of transgenic plants over expressing selective antioxidant proteins and their subsequent biochemical and physiological characterization under controlled conditions.

Present Graduate Students and Research Associates of the LAB.
 

 

Collaborators

Prof. Peter C. Loewen, Department of Microbiology, Manitoba University, Canada
[he collaborative work involves large scale purification of recombinant rice catalase-B protein from E.coli and other host systems for structural analysis. So far both the laboratories have independently successful in expressing the soluble rice catalase-B protein in E. coli with help of chaperons.

Prof. M. Kar, Department of Botany, Utkal University, Bhubaneswar
We collaborate with Prof. Kar for physiological implications of catalase a
ctivity in plants.
