| Abstract | Cell growth and proliferation require a complex series of tight-regulated and well-orchestrated events. Accordingly, proteins governing such events are evolutionary conserved, even among distant organisms. By contrast, it is more singular the case of core functions exerted by functional analogous proteins that are not homologous and do not share any kind of structural similarity. This is the case of proteins regulating the G1/S transition in higher eukaryotes - i.e. the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor Rb - and budding yeast, i.e. Whi5.The interaction landscape of Rb and Whi5 is quite large, with more than one hundred proteins interacting either genetically or physically with each protein. The Whi5 interactome has been used to construct a concept map of Whi5 function and regulation. Comparison of physical and genetic interactors of Rb and Whi5 allows highlighting a significant core of conserved common functionalities associated with the interactors indicating that structure and function of the network – rather than individual proteins - are conserved during evolution.A combined bioinformatics and biochemical approach has shown that the whole Whi5 protein is highly disordered, except for a small region containing the protein family signature.The comparison with Whi5 homologs from Saccharomycetales has prompted the hypothesis of a modular organization of structural disorder, with most conserved regions correlating with abundance of phosphorylation sites. The conservation of a consensus sequence suggests that a specific phosphorylation rhythm might have a functionally relevant role: two conserved motifs may act as phosphorylation-dependent seeds in Whi5 folding/unfolding. Thus, the widely disordered Whi5 that appears to act as a hierarchical, date–hub, seems to have evolutionary assayed an original way of modular organization that has been supplanted by the globular, multi-domain structured Rb, more suitable to cover the role of a party hub. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
