Acknowledgments 2 GOALS AND ACTIVITIES OF SBC(I) To meet a long felt need of scientists working in the discipline of biological chemistry " The Society Of Biological Chemists (India)" was founded in 1930, with its Head Quarters at Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. It was registered under the Societies Act in the then princely state of Mysore and the memorandum of registration was signed by the late Profs. V. Subramanian, V. N. Patwardhan and C. V. Natarajan, who were leading personalities in the scientific firmament during that period. The Society played a crucial role during the Second World War by advising the Government on the utilization of indigenous biomaterials as food substitutes, drugs and tonics, on the industrial and agricultural waste utilization and on management of water resources. The other areas of vital interest to the Society in the early years were nutrition, proteins, enzymes, applied microbiology, preventive medicines and the development of high quality proteins from indigenous plant sources. PROGRESS OVER THE YEARS The original objectives of the Society were to coordinate the work of biological chemists in different parts of India; to hold meetings and symposia for discussions on important topics of scientific and technical interest and for presentation of original papers; to publish Annual Reviews of Biochemical and Allied Research (carried out in India), and monographs on special topics in biological chemistry; and to publish a journal when sufficient funds become available. A journal was started in 1961, thanks to the untiring efforts of the late Profs. P. S. Sarma, A. Krishnamurthy, A. N. Radhakrishnan, L. K. Ramachandran, D. P. Burma, T. Ramasarma and several other members of the Society. This journal was originally published as the Indian Journal of Biochemistry but is now appearing as Indian Journal of Biochemistry and Biophysics at present. The Journal celebrated its Silver jubilee in 1988, and on this occasion, with the enthusiastic support of many members of our society, an excellent issue of the journal was brought out. Another effort of the Society which 3 met with some success was the establishment of the Biochemical Unit at the V.P. Chest Institute at the University of Delhi to overcome the shortage and circumvent the difficulties involved in procuring biochemicals from abroad. This laboratory established by CSIR at the initiative of the Society has strived against many odds and has achieved many successes. A major activity of the Society has been to hold symposia and annual meetings. The Society has sponsored large number of symposia, seminars and workshops in which both National and International scientists have participated. Recently, however the symposia activity is mostly confined to the Annual Meetings. The Society took the initiative of establishing links among biochemists working in various laboratories in Asia and Oceania. The Federation of Asian and Oceanian Biochemists and Molecular Biochemists was the culmination of the efforts spearheaded by SBC(I) and Biochemical societies of Japan and Australian. In addition, the membership of FAOBMB at present includes societies from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Thailand, Korea, Hongkong, NewZealand, Singapore and Hawaii. MEMBERSHIP The membership of the Society from a modest beginning of less than 100 members in 1930 as been growing steadily. In 2006 the total membership of the Society stands at 2,900 of which 1700 are life members. An important feature of the composition of members is that students form the major group. NEWS LETTER Using the news Letter as a medium for dissemination of information, the Society has been able to coordinate the work of biological chemists in different parts of India. In addition, various meetings, symposia and awards are announced through this news letter. The news letter features articles and reports on topics of scientific & technical interest. The additional feature of the news Letter includes history and activities of institutes engaged in biological research in India, a news bulletin board listing the Society activities, articles on science policy and material and products reviews. WEB PAGE The Society has a web page (www.iisc.ernet.in/sbci) through which various information and activities of the Society can be accessed. AWARDS 4 In order to recognize the meritorious and significant contributions made by the members of the Society on the development of biological sciences in the country, the Society has instituted the following awards: M. Sreenivasaya memorial award (1972); P. S. Sarma memorial award (1973); A. Krishnamurthy award (1976); M. Shadaksharaswamy lecture award (1982); P. B. Rama Rao memorial award (1983); P. A. Kurup lecture award (1991); Best Poster award; B. S. Narasinga Rao best poster award (1992); C. R. Krishna Murti award (1995); I. S. Bhatia award (2000); and the A. N. Bhaduri award (2006). The recipients of these awards have been listed in this book. In order to encourage young scientists, especially the student members of the Society, as well as to popularize Indian Journals, the Society instituted the A. Krishnamurthy award for the best paper published in an Indian Journal and B.S. Narasinga Rao best poster award for the papers presented at the Annual meetings of the Society. The Society has instituted a “Financial support for research” scheme to support young research workers to carry out short term training/research activities in well established laboratories/institutions in India. The branches of the Society are located all over India. To start a branch, there should be at least 20 members and the local members shall authorize one of them to act as a Convenor. It is clear that the effort of the branches in conducting branch activities have helped in SBC(I)‟s growth. Year after year, many branches have organized several meetings and workshops. It has been the Society‟s policy to support such activities to the extent possible. Each year, the major activity of the Society is to hold its annual scientific meeting. The venues of the annual meetings are enclosed. These annual meetings have attracted large number of leading scientists from all over India. The Society has been able to successfully maintain an intense scientific activity at these meetings. The major event in Society‟s history was the 16th IUBMB Congress in 1994 and the 10th FAOBMB Congress 2003. In short, the Society has grown over the years to be a giant among the professional societies of India. Leading scientists from different areas of Biological Sciences have put in enormous efforts in shaping and strengthening of the Society to its present stature.

As a consequence, in the past fifty years, there has been a paradigm shift in our interpreting the life process. In the process, modern biology had acquired a truly interdisciplinary character in which all streams of sciences have made monumental contributions. Because of such rapid emergence as a premier subject of teaching and research; a necessity to restructure classical teachings in biology was recognised by the academics worldwide. In tune with such trends, the academic leadership of Jawaharlal Nehru University conceptualised the School of Life Sciences as an interdisciplinary research/teaching programme unifying various facets of biology while reflecting essential commonality regarding structure, function and evolution of biomolecules. The School was established in 1973 and since offering integrated teaching and research at M. Sc/ Ph.D level in various sub-disciplines in life sciences. Since inception, it remained dedicated to its core objectives and evolved to be one of the top such institutions in India and perhaps in South East Asia.

The serotonin1A receptor is an important neurotransmitter receptor of the GPCR superfamily and is implicated in the generation and modulation of various cognitive, behavioral and developmental functions. We demonstrated that membrane cholesterol is necessary for ligand binding, and G-protein coupling of serotonin1A receptors. Interestingly, recently reported crystal structures of GPCRs have shown structural evidence of cholesterol binding site(s). In this context, we reported the presence of cholesterol recognition/interaction amino acid consensus (CRAC) motifs in the serotonin1A receptor. We also showed that the receptor is more stable and compact in the presence of membrane cholesterol. Our recent results utilizing coarse-grain molecular dynamics simulations to analyze the molecular nature of receptor-cholesterol interaction offer interesting insight in cholesterol binding site(s) in the receptor and oligomerization of the receptor. We showed utilizing homo-FRET and photo bleaching image correlation spectroscopy (pbICS) that the oligomerization of the serotonin1A receptor is modulated by membrane cholesterol.
