| Abstract | A transformation-deficient strain of Haemophilus influenzae, lacking adenosine 5'-triphosphate-dependent deoxyribonuclease activity, was isolated by selection for sensitivity to mitomycin. The mutant, designated JK57, possibily showed a moderate sensitivity to ultraviolet (UV) irradiation and treatment with methyl methane sulfonate. Contrary to the wild type, the mutant degraded chromosomal deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) to some extent. However, after UV irradiation to the mutant degraded considerably less DNA than the wild type and the TD24 mutant of H. influenzae, the latter being equivalent to a recA mutant of Escherichia coli. A TD2457 double mutant, constructed by transferring the TD24 mutation into the JK57 strain, was as sensitive to deleterious agents and as deficient in transformation as the TD24 single mutant; in the double mutant, however, after UV irradiation chromosomal DNA was degraded to the same extent as in the JK57 mutant. The number of transformants per unit of radioactive donor DNA taken up by JK57 recipient cells was approximately 10-fold smaller than in the wild type. Presynaptically, the fate of donor DNA in the adenosine 5'-triphosphate-dependent deoxyribonuclease-deficient mutants was not different from that in the wild type. In contrast to TD24 and the TD2457 double mutant, in the JK57 mutant, recombinant-type activities (molecules carrying both the donor and recipient markers) were formed almost as well as in the wild type. After integration into the JK57 recipient genome, the rate of replication of the donor marker was equal to that of the recipient marker during a number of generations, which suggests that the donor DNA is normally integrated into the JK57 chromosome. It is suggested that transformed JK57 cells pass with a high frequency into a type of cells that can replicate their chromosomes many times but have lost the ability to form visible colonies after plating. |

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.
