| Abstract | We demonstrated the utility of Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase, encoded by phoA, as a reporter molecule for genetic fusions in Rhodobacter sphaeroides. A portion of the R. sphaeroides cycA gene was fused to phoA, yielding a fusion protein comprising the putative signal sequence and first 10 amino acids of the cytochrome c2 apoprotein joined to the sixth amino acid of alkaline phosphatase. The fusion protein was efficiently transported to the periplasm of R. sphaeroides as determined by enzyme activity, Western immunoblot analysis, and immunogold electron microscopy. We also documented the ability of an R. sphaeroides mutant, RS104, with gross defects in photosynthetic membrane morphology to efficiently recognize and translocate the fusion protein to the periplasmic compartment. The inclusion of 500 base pairs of R. sphaeroides DNA in cis to the cycA structural gene resulted in a 2.5-fold increase in alkaline phosphatase activity in photosynthetically grown cells compared with the activity in aerobically grown cells, demonstrating that the fusion protein is regulated in a manner similar to that of cytochrome c2 regulation. We also constructed two pUC19-based plasmids suitable for the construction of translational fusions to phoA. In these plasmids, translational fusions of phoA to the gene under consideration can be made in all three reading frames, thus facilitating construction and expression of fusion protein systems utilizing phoA. |

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.
