STRUCTURE OF HIV THAT CAUSES AIDS
Cross-sectional schematic diagram of HIV virion. Each virion expresses 72 glycoprotein projections composed of gp120 (orange) and gp41 (light blue). Gp41 is a transmembrane molecule that crosses the lipid bilayer of the envelope. Gp120 is noncovalently associated with gp41 and serves as the viral receptor for CD4 on host cells. The viral envelope also contains some host-cell membrane proteins such as class I and class II MHC molecules. Within the envelope is the viral core, or nucleocapsid, which includes a layer of a protein called p17 (green) and an inner layer protein called p24 (yellow). The HIV genome consists of two copies of ssRNA, which
are
associated
with
two
molecules
of
reverse
transcriptase p64 (light red) and nucleoid proteins p10, a protease (red), and p32, an integrase (dark blue).

generation vaccines, diagnostic kits etc. are likely to lead to a major shift in healthcare for prevention. Of late Stem cell research has added a new dimension with their enormous potential for applications in cancer, auto immune deficiencies, cardio vascular and other ailments. Genetic Engineering: A recent off shoot of biotechnology research is genetic engineering, which involves gene splicing, recombinant DNA cloning and tissue culture technology. Genetic Engineering, which transfers genes from one species to another has greatly enhanced the power of biotechnology. In principle genes can be transfered between any organism from a bacterium to a plant, from humans to other animals. Most importantly

products, particularly drugs that could not be obtained in any other way. And second it can be used to create organisms, such as plant resistant to attach by insects, which do not occur in nature. The first bio technology product from genetic engineering was human insulin used in the treatment of diabetes. Also new is the use of antibodies as drugs. These proteins produced naturally by the immune system and manufactured in mammalian cell lines can build to specific molecules in the body and so block their action. They are being developed for use after transplant surgery to nutralise the action of substances that would otherwise trigger rejection and for treatment of septic shock, cancer and other conditions.

Genetic Engineering is also useful in the fields other than medicine, Chymosin, the enzyme used to make cheese can now be produced by yeast. Genetic Engineering has also been used to create entirely new species of plants and animals. In plants the new genes are introduced in to cell cultures which are then grown up by the methods of tissue culture. Transgenic plants bearing a gene for an insecticidal protein from the Bacterium Bacillius thuringiensis are being developed to protect crops from insect attack. Plants have also made resistance to a herbicide called Round up. Several strains of transgenic laboratory animals have also been created. With added human genes, these animals can act as models of human disease such as sickle anaemia and they may be used to test new drugs and in basic research.

VIROLOGY AND IMMUNOLOGY: HEPATITIS Viral Hepatitis represents one of the most common infectious diseases in man. The family of viruses that cause acute and chronichepatitis in humans now include five members: Hepatitis A,B,C, D and E viruses (HAV, HBV, HCV, HDV and HEV). The inability to culture Hepatitis viruses had percluded detailed virological studies but the application of molecular biological methods has circumvented some of these problems. The Centre has focussed on studying the molecular biology of these viruses.

PLANT MOLECULAR BIOLOGY Chloroplast DNA Replication The Centre has developed and characterised a partially purified in vitro replication system from pea chloroplast. The Ori sequences from pea chioroplasts have also been analysed. The sequences contain several direct repeats with five duplicated segments from 8-28 bp. This region also contained several inverted repeats, some with the capacity to form hairpin like structures.
The biochemical properties of chloroplast DNA polymerase are being studied. We have isolated a protein from chloroplast which nonspecifically binds to all forms of DNA and increases the cognate DNA polymarase/primase activity of chioroplasts in a dose dependent fashion. The gene for this 43 kDa protein is being isolated using polyclonal antibodies to probe the pea leaf cDNA expression library. A search for Ori A binding protein is being carried out.
A chloroplast specific DNA helicase has been purified to homogeneity and characterised for its biochemical properties. Polyclonal antibodies raised against the purified protein has been found to identity 68 kDa protein in the crude chloroplast preparation.
Plant Resistance Bacillus thuringiensis toxin genes: Several strategies are beingused to develop novel B.thuringiensis strains with broad host specificity.

PART - E SELECTED LIST OF SOME FOREIGN COMPANIES SCIENCE PARKS IN UNITED KINGDOM
Businesses located on a science park have the benefit of strong links to a specific research center or university (often to take advantage of leading-edge technology and research skills) combined with access to on-site specialized business support.
In the UK there are more than 100 science parks with approximately 2,200 tenant companies (Including over 200 overseas-owned companies), occupying around 1.4 million square meters of property. Employment in companies located on UK science parks has doubled over the last six years, from 30,000 to 60,000 (Source : UKSPA, 2005).
Science parks are owned by various organizations in the UK including universities, local government or private management companies. As many are significant sources of high-value employment in local areas, science parks often receive financial support from regional development agencies, the UK Government and the European Union.
The UK Science Park Association (UKSPA) is the key organization involved in the planning and development of science parks across the UK.
For
further information, including full contact details of science parks in the UK please see: www.ukspa.org.uk
Many incubators also offer a virtual incubation service where advice and support is provided to start-up businesses located outside of the incubator.
