| Abstract | The human Surf-1 and Surf-2 housekeeping genes are divergently transcribed and share a bi-directional, TATA-less promoter. Housekeeping promoters typically contain complex arrays of transcription factor binding sites and several studies have suggested that many of these sites might be functionally redundant. The Surf-1/Surf-2 promoter region contains four factor binding sites; members of the ETS family of transcription factors bind to two of these sites whilst YY1 binds to a third site immediately downstream of the major Surf-1 transcription start point. Here we show that Sp1 binds to the fourth transcription factor binding site. Although YY1 and Sp1 have previously been shown to interact both in vitro and in vivo, these proteins function independently at the Surf-1/Surf-2 promoter. The binding of Sp1 alone is sufficient to bring about full promoter activity in the Surf-2 direction. In contrast, both Sp1 and ETS proteins are required to bring about full promoter activity in the Surf-1 direction. The YY1 binding site is not required for basal transcription in either direction. The YY1 binding site is, however, both necessary and sufficient to confer growth factor inducibility on transcription in the Surf-1 direction. Our data suggest that functionally redundant transcription factor binding sites might not be a general feature of housekeeping promoters. |

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.
