| Abstract | Thioredoxins are small multifunctional redox active proteins widely if not universally distributed among living organisms. In chloroplasts, two types of thioredoxins (f and m) coexist and play central roles in regulating enzyme activity. Reduction of thioredoxins in chloroplasts is catalyzed by an iron-sulfur disulfide enzyme, ferredoxin-thioredoxin reductase, that receives photosynthetic electrons from ferredoxin, thereby providing a link between light and enzyme activity. Chloroplast thioredoxins function in the regulation of the Calvin cycle and associated processes. However, the relatively small number of known thioredoxin-linked proteins (about 16) raised the possibility that others remain to be identified. To pursue this opportunity, we have mutated thioredoxins f and m, such that the buried cysteine of the active disulfide has been replaced by serine or alanine, and bound them to affinity columns to trap target proteins of chloroplast stroma. The covalently linked proteins were eluted with DTT, separated on gels, and identified by mass spectrometry. This approach led to the identification of 15 potential targets that function in 10 chloroplast processes not known to be thioredoxin linked. Included are proteins that seem to function in plastid-to-nucleus signaling and in a previously unrecognized type of oxidative regulation. Approximately two-thirds of these targets contained conserved cysteines. We also identified 11 previously unknown and 9 confirmed target proteins that are members of pathways known to be regulated by thioredoxin. In contrast to results with individual enzyme assays, specificity for thioredoxin f or m was not observed on affinity chromatography. |

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.
