Molecular Microbiology Lab

Welcome to the Molecular Microbiology Lab, Department of Biotechnology, Berhampur University, Berhampur. The lab is currently engaged in research in the area of bacterial gene regulation using various genetics, genomics, and biochemical approaches to address the following broad objectives-

To understand the bacterial signal transduction mechanisms involved in the emergence of resistance to polymyxin group of antibiotics.

To develop novel anti-virulence strategies targeting the bacterial TCS modules.

To develop a greater understanding of DNA methylation and related epigenetic modulation of bacterial cell cycle progression.

Bacterial TCS pathway and the emergence of AMR




Caulobacter crescentus cell cycle and the temporal expression of GcrA and CcrM
