| Abstract | The Epstein-Barr virus genome is present in more than 95% of the African cases of Burkitt lymphoma. In this tumor, the viral genome is usually maintained in multiple episomal copies. Viral integration has been described only for Namalwa, a cell line lacking episomes. In this study, we have addressed the question of whether integrated and episomal copies can coexist in Burkitt lymphoma cells. Gel electrophoresis was used to demonstrate the presence of episomal as well as free linear DNA in three Burkitt lymphoma cell lines. The numbers of episomal copies per cell were estimated to be 5 to 10 in BL36 and BL137 cells and below 1 in BL60 cells, indicating that BL60 does not represent a homogeneous cell population. Fluorescence in situ hybridization was combined with chromosomal banding to study the association of the viral DNA with metaphase chromosomes. A symmetrical pattern of signals at both chromatids located at the same chromosomal sites in many if not all metaphases was taken as evidence for viral integration. In each of the three cell lines, one site of integration was identified: at chromosome 11p15 in BL36 cells, at chromosome 1p34 in BL137 cells, and at the site of a reciprocal t(11;19) translocation in BL60 cells. Integrated, episomal and linear copies of Epstein-Barr virus DNA thus coexist in Burkitt lymphoma cells. The biological significance of viral integration in Burkitt lymphoma cells remains to be elucidated. |

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.
