| Abstract | Analysis of the promoter for the herpes simplex virus (HSV) immediate-early (alpha) gene alpha 0 in a short-term transient expression assay revealed that a SacI-to-NcoI fragment from -786 to +148 relative to the cap site directed the synthesis of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase when the fragment was present in either orientation. Although the constitutive levels of promoter activity were similar with either orientation, the reverse-orientation promoter was not induced in response to infection with HSV. Analysis of sequences composing the putative promoter in the opposite orientation revealed the presence of important regulatory elements associated with alpha promoters. These include an alpha-trans-inducing factor (alpha-TIF)-like response element, a high-affinity ICP4-binding site, numerous Sp1-binding sites, and a TATA box. Sequences contained within this region formed specific DNA-protein complexes in extracts from mock-infected and HSV-infected HeLa cells. Transient expression assays revealed that this sequence was positively regulated by the alpha 0 and alpha-TIF genes but negatively regulated by alpha 4. Finally, nuclear run-on transcription assays revealed that this promoter is active in its correct genomic context during the course of virus infection. We suggest that the promoter is a hybrid between an alpha and beta promoter because it exhibits maximal expression at 8 h postinfection and is expressed in the presence of cycloheximide. |

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.
