Project involved the application of combination of molecular biological techniques (site directed mutagenesis, gene sequencing, gene transfection), cell biology (e.g. FACS, flow cytometry), analysis of downstream signalling pathways (receptor phosphorylation, immunoprecipitation and Calcium mobilization studies), ELISA, handling mammalian cell lines along with analytical techniques such as SDS – PAGE, PCR, western and southern blot analysis.
