| Abstract | Lactoferricin (Lfcin) is an amphipathic and cationic peptide with strong antibacterial activities against a broad range of Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria. It is usually generated by the pepsin-mediated digestion of lactoferrin. This paper investigated the potential for production of bovine lactoferricin (LfcinB) through genetic engineering. Three primers were designed according to amino acid sequence of bovine lactoferricin and then used to construct an oligonucleotide fragment (BeL) encoding lactoferricin. Genetically engineered bacteria (E. coli BL21-pEC- BeL) was successfully constructed after the BeL was inserted into a pEC vector and transformed into E. coli BL21 (DE3). Expression of the pEC vector in E. coli BL21-pEC-BeL was induced by addition of lactose and resulted in production of a fusion protein containing the target peptide LfcinB inside the E. coli cells. Purification of fusion protein was carried out by lysis of bacterial cells with lysozyme, followed by urea precipitation and ethanol precipitation method. The recombinant LfcinB was isolated by acid hydrolysis of the fusion protein to remove the fusion partner and purified through CM52 ion exchange column and Sephadex G-25 column. The molecular weight of the recombinant LfcinB was 3.4KD and its amino acid profile was consistent with the target peptide. |

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.
