| Abstract | Genomic DNA from type A Clostridium botulinum was digested with restriction endonucleases that cut at rare sites, and the large fragments were separated by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. Of 15 restriction enzymes tested, MluI, RsrII, SmaI, NruI, KspI, NaeI, and XhoI generated satisfactory digestion patterns of genomic DNA of various C. botulinum strains, enabling the use of the method for genomic fingerprinting. The genomes of four group I (type A) C. botulinum strains examined had similar restriction patterns. However, each strain had unique digestion patterns, reflecting genotypic differences. The genome size of C. botulinum strain 62A was estimated to be 4,039 +/- 40 kbp from the summation of restriction fragments from MluI, RsrII, and SmaI digestions. Genes encoding proteins involved in the toxinogenicity of C. botulinum, including neurotoxin, hemagglutinin A, and genes for a temperate phage, as well as various transposon Tn916 insertion sites in C. botulinum 62A, were mapped by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. The genes encoding neurotoxin and hemagglutinin A-1, were located on the same fragment in several cases, indicating their probable physical linkage. The macrorestriction analysis established here should be useful for genetic and epidemiological studies of C. botulinum. |

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.
