| Abstract | The adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV) Rep68 protein produced in Escherichia coli as a fusion protein with maltose-binding protein (MBP-Rep68 delta) has previously been shown to possess DNA-DNA helicase activity, as does the purified wild-type Rep68. In the present study, we demonstrate that MBP-Rep68 delta also catalyzes the unwinding of a DNA-RNA hybrid. MBP-Rep68 delta-mediated DNA-RNA helicase activity required ATP hydrolysis and the presence of Mg2+ ions and was inhibited by high ionic strength. The efficiency of the DNA-RNA helicase activity of MBP-Rep68 delta was comparable to its DNA-DNA helicase activity. However, MBP-Rep68 delta lacked the ability to unwind a blunt-ended DNA-RNA substrate and RNA-RNA duplexes. We have also demonstrated that MBP-Rep68 delta has ATPase activity which is enhanced by the presence of single-stranded DNA but not by RNA. The MBP-Rep68 delta NTP mutant protein, which has a lysine-to-histidine substitution at amino acid 340 in the putative nucleoside triphosphate-binding site of Rep68, not only lacks DNA-RNA helicase and ATPase activities but also inhibits the helicase activity of MBP-Rep68 delta. DNA-RNA helicase activity of Rep proteins might play a pivotal role in the regulation of AAV gene expression by AAV Rep proteins. |

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.
