| Abstract | The bkd operon of Pseudomonas putida consists of the structural genes encoding the components of the inducible branched-chain ketoacid dehydrogenase. BkdR, a positive regulator of the bkd operon and a homolog of Lrp of Escherichia coli is encoded by a structural gene adjacent to, and divergently transcribed from, the bkd operon of P. putida. BkdR was purified from E. coli containing bkdR cloned into pCYTEXP1, an expression vector. The molecular weight of BkdR obtained by gel filtration indicates that BkdR is a tetramer, and the abundance of BkdR in P. putida was estimated to be about 25 to 40 copies of the tetramer per cell. BkdR bound specifically to the region between bkdR and bkdA1, the latter being the first gene of the bkd operon. One BkdR-DNA complex was observed in gel mobility shift patterns. Approximately 100 bp was protected from the action of DNase I by BkdR, and the addition of L-branched-chain amino acids enhanced the appearance of hypersensitive sites in the protected region. There are four potential BkdR-DNA binding sequences in this region based on similarity to Lrp-binding consensus sequences. Like many other transcriptional activators, BkdR regulates expression of its structural gene. DNAs from several gram-negative bacteria hybridized to a probe containing bkdR, indicating the presence of bkdR-like genes in these organisms. |

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.
