| Abstract | Escherichia coli integration host factor (IHF), a DNA-binding protein, positively regulates expression of the lambda cII gene. Purified IHF stimulates cII protein synthesis in vitro, suggesting a direct role for host factor in cII expression. Further evidence for a direct role for IHF was obtained with operon and gene fusions between cII and lacZ or cII and galE. Analysis of these fusions in vivo demonstrated that IHF is essential for the initiation of cII translation. Replacement of the entire cII coding sequence with lacZ yielded a gene fusion which was still IHF dependent. However, a cII-galE fusion carrying a hybrid ribosome binding region expressed galE in IHF mutants. These results indicate that sequences which make cII translation IHF dependent lie between the ribosome binding region and the initiating codon of cII. Failure to translate cII activates a transcription terminator located within cII and results in polar effects on downstream transcription. This polarity is suppressed by the lambda N antitermination function. When cloned into another context, the terminator is active in both wild-type and IHF mutant strains. The amino terminus of cII is located near an IHF binding site in a region with considerable dyad symmetry. The role of IHF in cII translation may be to prevent formation of an RNA-RNA duplex that sequesters the ribosome binding site of cII. The binding of IHF might influence RNA structure by altering the rate of the dissociation of RNA from the DNA template. |

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.
