| Abstract | Calmodulin (CaM) is one of several proteins regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner. CaM is synthesized at the G1/S boundary and has been implicated in the regulation of cell cycle progression. To elucidate the role of calmodulin in cell cycle control, clonal mouse C127 cell lines transformed with one of four different bovine papilloma virus (BPV)-based vectors were studied. These vectors express a) a chicken CaM gene regulated by its own promoter (CM cells), b) the chicken CaM gene regulated by the inducible human metallothionein-IIa promoter (MCM cells), c) CaM antisense RNA using the Zn2+ inducible mouse metallothionein-I (mMT-I) promoter (AS cells), or d) a rat parvalbumin gene using the chicken CaM promoter (PV cells). C127 cells transformed by BPV-1 alone (BPV cells) are used as a control in each case. Previous studies showed that a 4-fold increase in CaM levels in CM cells shortened the cell cycle by reducing the length of the G1 period. Expression of parvalbumin in PV cells has no effect on cell cycle length, suggesting that increased CAM, and not simply increased Ca2(+)-binding protein, accelerates proliferation. Zn2(+)-induced expression of the chicken CaM gene in MCM cells increased the rate of proliferation, while Zn2(+)-induced expression of high levels of CaM anti-sense RNA stops proliferation at Zn2+ levels that do not affect the growth of BPV cells. In CM cells increased CaM affects cell cycle-dependent level of mRNAs for tubulin, vimentin, and c-myc relative to the levels in BPV cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) |

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.
