| Abstract | A mutation has been identified that prevents Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells from growing on proline as the sole source of nitrogen, causes noninducible expression of the PUT1 and PUT2 genes, and is completely recessive. In the put3-75 mutant, the basal level of expression (ammonia as nitrogen source) of PUT1-lacZ and PUT2-lacZ gene fusions as measured by β-galactosidase activity is reduced 4- and 7-fold, respectively, compared with the wild-type strain. Normal regulation is not restored when the cells are grown on arginine as the sole nitrogen source and put3-75 cells remain sensitive to the proline analog, l-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid, indicating that the block is not at the level of transport of the inducer, proline. In a cross between the put3-75 strain and the semidominant, constitutive mutation PUT3c-68, only parental ditype tetrads were found, indicating allelism of the two mutations. Further support for allelism derives from the comparison of enzyme levels in heteroallelic and heterozygous diploid strains. The constitutive allele appears to be fully dominant to the noninducible allele but only partially dominant to the wild type, suggesting an interaction between the wild-type and PUT3c-68 gene products. The PUT3 gene maps on chromosome XI, about 5.7 cM from the centromere. The phenotypes of alleles of the PUT3 gene, either recessive and noninducible (the put3-75 phenotype) or semidominant and constitutive (the PUT3c-68 phenotype), and their pleiotropy suggest that the PUT3 gene product is a positive activator of the proline utilization pathway. |

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.
