| Abstract | The nucleotide sequence of the gene that encodes the fermentative, multifunctional alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) in Alcaligenes eutrophus, and of adjacent regions on a 1.8-kilobase-pair PstI fragment was determined. From the deduced amino acid sequence, a molecular weight of 38,549 was calculated for the ADH subunit. The amino acid sequence reveals homologies from 22.3 to 26.3% with zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenases from eucaryotic organisms (Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Zea mays, mouse, horse liver, and human liver). Most of the 22 amino acid residues, which are strictly conserved in this group of ADHs (H. Jörnvall, B. Persson, and J. Jeffery, Eur. J. Biochem. 167:195-201, 1987), either were present in the A. eutrophus enzyme or had been substituted by related amino acids. The A. eutrophus adh gene was transcribed in Escherichia coli only under the control of the lac promoter, but was not expressed by its own promoter. A sequence resembling the E. coli consensus promoter DNA sequence did not contain the invariant T, but a G, in the potential -10 region. In the transposon-induced mutants HC1409 and HC1421, which form ADH constitutively, the insertions of Tn5::mob were localized 56 and 66 base pairs, respectively, upstream of the presumptive translation initiation codon. In contrast to the promoter, the A. eutrophus ribosome-binding site with a GGAG Shine-Dalgarno sequence 6 base pairs upstream of the translation initiation codon was accepted by the E. coli translation apparatus. A stable hairpin structure, which may provide a transcription termination signal, is predicted to occur in the mRNA, with its starting point 21 base pairs downstream from the translation termination codon. |

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.
