| Abstract | LamB protein is involved in the transport of maltose across the outer membrane and constitutes the receptor for phage lambda. In this study we characterized six previously described anti-LamB monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Four of these, the E-mAbs, recognized determinants that were exposed at the cell surface, whereas the other two, the I-mAbs, recognized determinants which were not exposed. Competition experiments demonstrated that the domains recognized by these two classes of mAbs were completely distinct. In addition, the E-mAbs prevented LamB from neutralizing phage lambda in vitro and protected LamB against proteolytic degradation, whereas the I-mAbs had no such effects. The E-mAbs have been shown previously to constitute two classes: some E-mAbs inhibit maltose transport in vivo, and others do not. Immunoelectron microscopy demonstrated that the I-mAbs also define at least two types of determinants. One of these, which is accessible in membrane fragments from a mutant (lpp) devoid of lipoprotein but not in membrane fragments from an lpp+ strain, probably corresponds to a region of LamB that is involved in the interactions with peptidoglycan. The other determinant, which is fully accessible in LamB-peptidoglycan complexes and in LamB-containing phospholipid vesicles but only slightly accessible in membrane fragments from an lpp mutant, is probably located very close to the inner surface of the outer membrane. LamB also contains at least one additional determinant, which (i) is exposed at the inner surface of the membrane, (ii) is accessible to antibodies in membrane fragments from an lpp+ strain, and (iii) may be involved in the interaction of LamB with the periplasmic maltose-binding 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.
