| Abstract | The in vitro lipid requirements of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-dolichol phosphate N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphotransferase for the inositol-containing sphingolipids from Saccharomyces cerevisiae were characterized in terms of concentration and specificity. The effects of combinations of lipids, especially phosphatidylinositol and the inositol-containing sphingolipids, were also tested on the transferase. Phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylglycerol stimulated the enzyme 3.3- and 2.8-fold, respectively. The inositol-containing sphingolipids, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylserine did not stimulate the activity of the transferase. Phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine in combination with phosphatidylinositol had no effect on the transferase activity; however, the inositol-containing sphingolipids markedly inhibited the stimulation of the transferase by phosphatidylinositol. This inhibition by the sphingolipids was prevented if phosphatidylcholine, in addition to the other lipids, was present in the assay mixture. In addition, changes due to inositol starvation in the in vivo membrane lipid environment, i.e., phosphatidylinositol and the inositol-containing sphingolipids, were analyzed to determine whether they corresponded to the observed in vitro effects. Three hours after the beginning of inositol starvation, there were 9- and 14-fold reductions in the accumulation of phosphatidylinositol in membrane fractions IIA (vesicles) and IV (endoplasmic reticulum), respectively, although there was only a 6-fold reduction in membrane fraction I (plasma membrane). The accumulation of [14C]inositol into inositol-containing sphingolipids also reflected the differences in the cellular location of membranes. |

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.
