📰 The Micro Byte | From the Dean's Desk

🌱 "No farms. No livestock. Just cells – and a bioreactor!"

What if the future of meat production didn't rely on traditional farming? Cellular agriculture is transforming the way we think about food by producing meat directly from animal cells in controlled bioreactors. This revolutionary approach has the potential to reduce environmental impact, improve animal welfare, and enhance global food security while meeting the growing demand for sustainable protein.

In this edition of The Micro Byte, Prof. (Dr.) Amit Sarkar, Dean, School of Life, Agricultural & Biotechnological Sciences, shares his perspective on how cellular agriculture is redefining the future of food production and driving innovation towards a more sustainable world.

📖 Stay tuned as we continue to explore emerging trends and transformative ideas shaping the future of biotechnology and life sciences.

🔬 Research Spotlight | Showcasing Research. Inspiring Innovation.

Congratulations to Dr. Asis Kumar Jana, Assistant Professor Grade-III, Department of Biotechnology, Sister Nivedita University, on his recent research publication:

"Stability and Dynamics of the N-Terminal Domain of TDP-43 and the Effect of Point Mutations"

TDP-43 is a critical protein implicated in several neurodegenerative disorders, including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD). In this study, long-timescale all-atom molecular dynamics simulations were employed to investigate how specific point mutations influence the structural stability of the N-terminal domain (NTD) of TDP-43.

🧬 Key Findings:
✅ The wild-type NTD and the L27A mutant remain structurally stable.
✅ The L28A mutation destabilizes the protein by disrupting tertiary interactions and exposing hydrophobic residues.
✅ The CHARMM36m force field demonstrated greater structural stability than CHARMM36mW, providing deeper insights into the molecular mechanisms governing TDP-43 function and pathological aggregation.

This work advances our understanding of protein misfolding and aggregation in neurodegenerative diseases and highlights the power of molecular simulations in biomedical research.

👏 We congratulate Dr. Asis Kumar Jana on this significant scientific contribution and wish him continued success in his research endeavors.
