Biocon collaborated with Dr. Min Guo (Scripps), and Dr. Ehud Razin (Hebrew University) to investigate KRS. They together published an article about KRS in Molecular Cell called “Structural Switch of Lysyl-tRNA Synthetase between Translation and Transcription”. Also, it was reported in Science Daily. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/11/121115133414.htm http://www.healthcanal.com/medical-breakthroughs/34025-Scientists-Show-Protein-Making-Machinery-Can-Switch-Gears-with-Small-Structural-Change.html?print For more details, please refer to the attached file.
