| Abstract | Alterations of the DNA methylation pattern have been related to generalized chromosomal disruption and inactivation of multiple tumor suppressor genes in neoplasia. To screen for tumor-specific alterations and to make a global assessment of methylation status in cancer cells, we have modified the methylated CpG island amplification method to generate easily readable fingerprints representing the cell’s DNA methylation profile. The method is based on the differential cleavage of isoschizomers with distinct methylation sensitivity. Specific adaptors are ligated to the methylated ends of the digested genomic DNA. The ligated sequences are amplified by PCR using adaptor- specific primers extended at the 3′ end with two to four arbitrarily chosen nucleotidic residues to reduce the complexity of the product. Fingerprints consist of multiple anonymous bands, representing DNA sequences flanked by two methylated sites, which can be isolated and individually characterized. Hybridization of the whole product to metaphase chromosomes revealed that most bands originate from the isochore H3, which identifies the regions of the genome with the highest content of CpG islands and genes. Comparison of the fingerprints obtained from normal colon mucosa, colorectal carcinomas and cell lines revealed tumor-specific alterations that are putative recurrent markers of the disease and include tumor-specific hypo- and hypermethylations. |

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.
