| Abstract | As an enzyme of the tricarboxylic acid cycle pathway, citrate synthase participates in the generation of a variety of cellular biosynthetic intermediates and in that of reduced purine nucleotides that are used in energy generation via electron transport-linked phosphorylation reactions. It catalyzes the condensation of oxaloacetate and acetyl coenzyme A to produce citrate plus coenzyme A. In Escherichia coli this enzyme is encoded by the gltA gene. To investigate how gltA expression is regulated, a gltA-lacZ operon fusion was constructed and analyzed following aerobic and anaerobic cell growth on various types of culture media. Under aerobic culture conditions, expression was elevated to a level twofold higher than that reached under anaerobic culture conditions. ArcA functions as a repressor of gltA expression under each set of conditions: in a delta arcA strain, gltA-lacZ expression was elevated to levels two- and eightfold higher than those seen in a wild-type strain under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, respectively. This control is independent of the fnr gene product, an alternative anaerobic gene regulator in E. coli. When the richness or type of carbon compound used for cell growth was varied, gltA-lacZ expression varied by 10- to 14-fold during aerobic and anaerobic growth. This regulation was independent of both the crp and fruR gene products, suggesting that another regulatory element in E. coli is responsible for the observed control. Finally, gltA-lacZ expression was shown to be inversely proportional to the cell growth rate. These findings indicate that the regulation of gltA gene expression is complex in meeting the differential needs of the cell for biosynthesis and energy generation under various cell culture conditions. |

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.
