| Abstract | An assay has been developed that permits analysis of repair of A/G mismatches to C.G base pairs in cell extracts of Salmonella typhimurium LT2. This A/G mismatch repair is independent of ATP, dam methylation, and mutS gene function. The gene product of mutB has been shown to be involved in the dam-independent pathway through the in vitro assay. Moreover, specific DNA-protein complexes and an endonuclease can be detected in S. typhimurium extracts by using DNA fragments containing an A/G mismatch. These activities are not observed with substrates which have a T/G mismatch or no mismatch. The S. typhimurium endonuclease, like the A/G endonuclease found in Escherichia coli (A-L. Lu and D.-Y. Chang, Cell 54:805-812, 1988), makes incisions at the first phosphodiester bond 3' to and the the second phosphodiester bond 5' to the dA of the A/G mismatch. No incision site was detected on the other DNA strand. Extracts prepared from mutB mutants cannot form A/G mismatch-specific DNA-protein complexes and do not contain the A/G endonuclease activity. Thus the A/G mismatch specific binding and nicking activities are probably involved in the A/G mismatch repair pathway. Preliminary analysis of the mutational spectrum of the mutB strain has indicated that this mutator allele causes an increase in C.G-to-A.T transversions without affecting the frequencies of other transversion or transition events. In addition, the mutB gene has been mapped to the 64-min region of the S. typhimurium chromosome. Together, this biochemical and genetic evidence suggests that the mutB gene product of S. typhimurium is the homolog of the E. coli micA (and/or mutY) gene product. |

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.
