| Abstract | The replication terminus region of the Bacillus subtilis chromosome, comprising TerI and TerII plus the rtp gene (referred to as the terC region) was relocated to serC (257 degrees) and cym (10 degrees) on the anticlockwise- and clockwise-replicating segments of the chromosome, respectively. In both cases, it was found that only the orientation of the terC region that placed TerI in opposition to the approaching replication fork was functional in fork arrest. When TerII was opposed to the approaching fork, it was nonfunctional. These findings confirm and extend earlier work which involved relocations to only the clockwise-replicating segment, at metD (100 degrees) and pyr (139 degrees). In the present work, it was further shown that in the strain in which TerII was opposed to an approaching fork at metD, overproduction of the replication terminator protein (RTP) enabled TerII to function as an arrest site. Thus, chromosomal TerII is nonfunctional in arrest in vivo because of a limiting level of RTP. Marker frequency analysis showed that TerI at both cym and metD caused only transient arrest of a replication fork. Arrest appeared to be more severe in the latter situation and caused the two forks to meet at approximately 145 degrees (just outside or on the edge of the replication fork trap). The minimum pause time erected by TerI at metD was calculated to be approximately 40% of the time taken to complete a round of replication. This significant pause at metD caused the cells to become elongated, indicating that cell division was delayed. Further work is needed to establish the immediate cause of the delay in division. |

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.
