| Abstract | A methyl methane sulfonate (MMS)-sensitive mutant of Escherichia coli AB 1157 was obtained by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine treatment. The mutant strain, AB 3027, is defective both in endonuclease activity for apurinic sites in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and in DNA polymerase I, as shown by direct enzyme assays. Derivative strains, which retained the deficiency in endonuclease activity for apurinic sties (approximately 10% of the wild-type enzyme level) but had normal DNA polymerase I activity, were obtained by P1-mediated transduction (strain NH5016) or by selection of revertants to decreased MMS sensitivity. These endonuclease-deficient strains are more MMS-sensitive than wild-type strains. Revertants of these deficients strains to normal MMS resistance were isolated. They had increased levels of the endonuclease activity but did not attain wild-type levels. The data suggest that endonuclease for apurinic sites is active in repair of lesions introduced in DNA as a consequence of MMS treatment. Two different endonucleases that specifically attack DNA containing apurinic sites arepresented in E coli K-12. A heat-labile activity, sensitive to inhibition by ethylenediaminetetraacetate, accounts for 90% of the total endonuclease activity for apurinic sties in crude cell extracts. The residual 10% is due to a more heat-resistant activity, refractory to ethylenediaminetetraacetate inhibition. The AB3027 and NH5016 strains have normal amounts of the latter endonuclease but no or very little of the former activity. |

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.
