| Abstract | Cell organelles have been isolated from protoplast lysates and total homogenates obtained from root tips of Pisum sativum L. (cv Little Marvel) and Medicago media Pers. (cv Saranac) grown in hydroponics with nitrate nutrient solutions. Density-gradient and differential centrifugation procedures have been used to prepare mitochondria-and plastid-enriched fractions in which glutamine synthetase (GS) activity was estimated. Even when purified protoplasts were gently ruptured, significant breakage of plastids occurred during preparation as shown by the high proportion of nitrite reductase recovered in the soluble fraction. Of the total GS activity recovered, up to 20% was associated with the plastid fraction, depending on the source of plant material and the GS assay utilized; when corrected for recovery of the plastid marker nitrite reductase, it was calculated that 15 to 57% of alfalfa and 14 to 64% of pea root GS was located in the plastids. A true biosynthetic assay in which glutamine production was monitored by high performance liquid chromatography was devised to estimate the physiological significance of the transferase and the semibiosynthetic assays currently used for activity measurements. When compared with the true and semibiosynthetic assays, the transferase assay for GS appeared to underestimate the root plastid enzyme. Root plastid GS was partially purified by ion-exchange chromatography, and results show that the isoenzyme found in root plastids is different from chloroplastic or cytosolic GS. |

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.
