| Abstract | Based on peroxin protein 5 (Pex5p) homology searches in the expressed sequence tag database and sequencing of large full-length cDNA inserts, three novel and related human cDNAs were identified. The brain-derived cDNAs coded for two related proteins that differ only slightly at their N-terminus, and exhibit 39.8% identity to human PEX5p. The shorter liver-derived cDNA coded for the C-terminal tetratricopeptide repeat-containing domain of the brain cDNA-encoded proteins. Since these three proteins specifically bind to various C-terminal peroxisome-targeting signals in a manner indistinguishable from Pex5p and effectively compete with Pex5p in an in vitro peroxisome-targeting signal 1 (PTS1)-binding assay, we refer to them as 'Pex5p-related proteins' (Pex5Rp). In contrast to Pex5p, however, human PEX5Rp did not bind to Pex14p or to the RING finger motif of Pex12p, and could not restore PTS1 protein import in Pex5(-/-) mouse fibroblasts. Immunofluorescence analysis of epitope-tagged PEX5Rp in Chinese hamster ovary cells suggested an exclusively cytosolic localization. Northern-blot analysis showed that the PEX5R gene, which is localized to chromosome 3q26.2--3q27, is expressed preferentially in brain. Mouse PEX5Rp was also delineated. In addition, experimental evidence established that the closest-related yeast homologue, YMR018wp, did not bind PTS1. Based on its subcellular localization and binding properties, Pex5Rp may function as a regulator in an early step of the PTS1 protein import process. |

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.
