| Abstract | We have constructed an Escherichia coli strain lacking the small heat shock proteins IbpA and IbpB and compared its growth and viability at high temperatures to those of isogenic cells containing null mutations in the clpA, clpB, or htpG gene. All mutants exhibited growth defects at 46°C, but not at lower temperatures. However, the clpA, htpG, and ibp null mutations did not reduce cell viability at 50°C. When cultures were allowed to recover from transient exposure to 50°C, all mutations except Δibp led to suboptimal growth as the recovery temperature was raised. Deletion of the heat shock genes clpB and htpG resulted in growth defects at 42°C when combined with the dnaK756 or groES30 alleles, while the Δibp mutation had a detrimental effect only on the growth of dnaK756 mutants. Neither the overexpression of these heat shock proteins nor that of ClpA could restore the growth of dnaK756 or groES30 cells at high temperatures. Whereas increased levels of host protein aggregation were observed in dnaK756 and groES30 mutants at 46°C compared to wild-type cells, none of the null mutations had a similar effect. These results show that the highly conserved E. coli small heat shock proteins are dispensable and that their deletion results in only modest effects on growth and viability at high temperatures. Our data also suggest that ClpB, HtpG, and IbpA and -B cooperate with the major E. coli chaperone systems in vivo. |

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.
