| Abstract | Eukaryotic cells control the levels of molecular chaperones and folding enzymes in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by a transcriptional induction process termed the unfolded protein response (UPR) according to the needs within the ER. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, expression of the UPR-specific transcription factor Hac1p is tightly regulated at the level of mRNA splicing that depends on an unconventional system. Thus, HAC1 precursor mRNA is constitutively expressed but not translated. A sensor molecule Ire1p/Ern1p-mediated signaling from the ER specifically removes an intron of 252 nucleotides from the precursor mRNA, and the resulting mature mRNA is translated to produce Hac1p. Because the 5′ splice site is located near the C-terminal end of the Hac1p-coding region, this splicing replaces the last 10 codons of the ORF with an exon encoding 18 aa without affecting the N-terminal 220-aa region which contains the DNA-binding domain. Here, we found that this C-terminal 18-aa segment functions as a potent activation domain. Therefore, the splicing event joins the HAC1 DNA-binding domain to its activation domain, allowing rapid posttranscriptional generation of a potent transcriptional activator (238-aa Hac1p) that activates the UPR efficiently. This suggests that the UPR is hardly activated by Hac1p produced without splicing (230-aa Hac1p) which may occur in the absence of Ire1p/Ern1p-mediated signaling from the ER. Based on these and other results, we propose that the control of expression and activity of Hac1p meets the requirements of the ER. |

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.
