The increasing incidence of corporate fraud in major global companies has drawn significant scrutiny to the effectiveness of corporate governance in mitigating such fraudulent activities. Despite substantial improvements in corporate governance practices and the implementation of new regulatory frameworks aimed at curbing corporate fraud, instances of fraud continue to rise. If this situation persists, it will become a serious impediment to making substantial progress toward the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The objective of this study is to explore the interplay between corporate governance attributes, whistleblowing policies, and the likelihood of corporate fraud occurrences within the context of Malaysia. The …

Biofilm is the sessile group of organisms that adhere irreversibly with the biotic and abiotic surface with the help of pilli and extracellular polymeric substance [EPS] which comprises of carbohydrates, proteins and nucleic acids that provides nutrition to the developing microcolonies and it also prevents the penetration of drug molecules upto the cells thus rendering antibiotic and antimicrobial resistance. Antibiotics are still considered to be one of the potent antimicrobial agents which helps in removing the biofilm. This results in the overuse of antibiotics thereby developing antibiotic resistance within the microorganisms. Thus an alternative pathway to develop compounds or materials …

A Variation Of Gene Expression Of Protein Translocon At The Outer Envelope Of Chloroplast: A Brief Overview, Siddhartha Dutta, Rajneesh Singhal
American Journal of Applied Bio-Technology Research (AJABTR)
In plants, the chloroplast is the site for essential functions that are critical for many biosynthetic pathways. Due to the transfer of majority of its genes to the host nucleus during the endosymbiotic event, a host majority of the chloroplast proteins are nuclear encoded and post-translationally targeted into the chloroplast. Thus, protein trafficking into the chloroplast plays a pivotal role in regulation of chloroplast biogenesis. Among the various components of the translocon machinery, the translocon at the outer envelope of chloroplast (TOC) dictate the selectivity of the preproteins that have to be imported into the chloroplast for proper chloroplast function. …

Determination & Expression Of Chimeric Protein In Colorectal Cancer: A Bioinformatics Approach, Gargi Bhattacharyya, Amit Chattopadhay
American Journal of Applied Bio-Technology Research (AJABTR)
Colorectal cancer (CRC) accounts for about 10% of cancer-related mortality in western countries. Increasing ageing population, undesirable modern dietary and high-risk factors like smoking, obesity and low exercise. Chromosomal instability (CIN), CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP), and microsatellite instability are the three different mechanism that give rise to CRC. It often grows slowly, and customarily doesn’t produce symptoms until reaching a substantial size of several centimeters, which can block the passage of feces and cause cramping, pain, or bleeding which can present as visible bleeding with bowel movements or, rarely, dark “tarry” stools. Most colon tumors develop via a several …

American Journal of Applied Bio-Technology Research (AJABTR)
Somatic embryogenesis is a process whereby a single cell or a group of cells are induced to form totipotent embryogenic cells. Somatic embryogenesis always served as a model system for studying the molecular mechanisms underlying the embryogenic developmental process. There is an upsurge of interest in scientists to explore the molecular understanding of embryogenesis and the involvement of different genes and proteins during this developmental process. Studies have shown that somatic embryogenesis is under a stringent coordinated control of some regulatory genes among which somatic embryogenesis receptor kinase (SERK) gene has claimed an important role. In recent time expression of …

Coronavirus disease 2019(COVID 19) is an illness caused by novel corona virus which is now known as SARS-CoV-2. This disease has become a global pandemic as a large population worldwide is suffering from it. Due to this reason, researchers have conducted clinical trials for some potential drugs like hydroxychloroquine, favipiravir, remdesivir, lopinavir-ritonavir, Dexamethasone and Tocilizumab. Hydroxychloroquine which was previously used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, when taken in combination with azithromycin has shown to prevent SARS-CoV-2 in some cases. Faviravir which was previously used to treat influenza and ebola virus has shown promising results. Remdesivir is a broad spectrum antiviral drug …

Biofilm is the syntrophic consortium of the microorganisms that mainly comprises of sessile groups of bacterial cells that adhere to the inanimate or living surfaces with the help of extracellular polymeric substance (EPS)and pili by forming a matrix composed of exopolysaccharide, proteins and DNA(polymeric conglomeration). The sessile group of cells forming the biofilm develop intimate connection by Quorum Sensing (QS). EPS forming the biofilm comprises glycocalyx and chemically made up of carbohydrates, proteins and nucleic acid. EPS helps those adherent cells by embedding them within a slimy layer and provides nutrients to the developing cells within the biofilm. Thus, it …
