| Abstract | A phosphate-dependent glutaminase was purified 1200-fold from rat brain. In the absence of a polyvalent anion, the glutaminase exists as an inactive protomer which has an estimated Mr of 126000. The addition of 100mM-phosphate causes maximal activation and a dimerization (Mr 249000) of the glutaminase. The phosphate activation is sigmoidal, with a K0.5 of 25mM and a Hill coefficient (h) of 1.5 Glutamate inhibition is competitive with respect to glutamine and is decreased by increasing the concentration of phosphate. Phosphate also decreases the Km for glutamine. The purified glutaminase contains a predominant peptide (Mr 65000) and a minor peptide (Mr 68000) that are present in an approximate ratio of 4:1 respectively. The glutaminase immunoprecipitated from freshly solubilized brain tissue or from synaptosomal and non-synaptosomal brain mitochondria contains the same distribution of the two peptides. In contrast, the glutaminase purified from rat kidney contains five to seven peptides that range in Mr value from 59000 to 48000, and immunoprecipitates derived from freshly solubilized renal tissue contain only the Mr-65000 peptide. Partial proteolysis and size fractionation of the three immunoprecipitated peptides indicate that they are structurally related. The series of peptides characteristic of the purified renal glutaminase is generated on storage of the solubilized extract of kidney tissue. The glutaminase contained in the solubilized brain extract is not degraded unless a renal extract is added. Thus the difference in the pattern of peptides associated with the two purified enzymes is due to an endogenous renal proteinase that is not present in brain. |

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.
