| Abstract | The metJ193 allele encodes one of two identified temperature-sensitive Escherichia coli K-12 met repressors. The nucleotide sequence of the metJ193 allele was determined. The point mutation was a T to A transversion at base 170 of the metJ193 open reading frame and resulted in the substitution of leucine by glutamine at the 56th amino acid residue of the MetJ193 protein. The mutational lesion altered the hydrophobic pocket responsible for in vitro binding of the corepressor S-adenosylmethionine by wild-type MetJ. MetJ193 protein formed at the permissive temperature (28 degrees C) allowed slow derepression of met regulon expression when cultures were shifted to the nonpermissive temperature (34 degrees C). When 28 degrees C cultures of strains bearing two metJ193 alleles were transferred from methionine-containing medium to minimal medium, derepression of met regulon expression did not occur quickly enough to avoid a lag in growth due to the methionine deprivation. The inability of the MetJ193 protein to easily accomplish transition between apo- and active-repressor conformations was also demonstrated by using a maxicell system to study expression of a plasmid-borne copy of the E. coli metF transcription unit. These results confirm the importance of the leucine 56 residue for the structure and function in vivo of the wild-type MetJ protein. |

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.
