| Abstract | The herpes simplex virus 1 UL26 open reading frame encodes a protease which cleaves a small carboxyl-terminal peptide of itself and its substrate encoded by an overlapping, 3'-coterminal transcriptional unit, designated UL26.5. The translational product of UL26.5 is infected-cell protein 35c,d (ICP35c,d) (F. Liu and B. Roizman, J. Virol. 65:206-212, 1991; F. Liu and B. Roizman, J. Virol. 65:5149-5156, 1991). The protease activity maps at the amino terminus of UL26 translation product designated Pra. Cleavage of Pra to remove the carboxyl-terminal 25 amino acids converts the protein to Prb (F. Liu and B. Roizman, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89:2076-2080, 1992). Other studies reported a second, amino-terminus-proximal cleavage in UL26 gene products made in Escherichia coli (I. C. Deckman, M. Hagen, and P. J. McCann III, J. Virol 66:7362-7367, 1992; C. L. DiIanni, D. A. Drier, I. C. Deckman, P.J. McCann III, F. Liu, B. Roizman, R. J. Colonno, and M. G. Cordingley, J. Biol. Chem., 368:2048-2051, 1993). We report the following results. (i) The amino-terminus-proximal cleavage of UL26 protein in eukaryotic cells generates two polypeptides, an apparent M(r)-25,000 amino-terminal polypeptide designated Prn and a carboxyl-terminal polypeptide which corresponds in electrophoretic mobility to ICP35a. Cleavage of the carboxyl-terminal 25 amino acids by the UL26 protease converted ICP35a to ICP35b. (ii) Replacement of Ala-247-Ser-248 with Arg-Pro precluded the amino-terminus-proximal cleavage. (iii) Prn, the amino-terminal product of the cleavage reaction at amino acid 247 functions as a protease. (iv) Additional amino acid substitutions in the putative domain of the protease yielded results consistent with the hypothesis that UL26 encodes a serine protease. (v) The domain of the UL26 protein whose modification confers the formation of double bands for all products (Pra, Prb, ICP35a, ICP35b, ICP35c,d, and ICP35e,f) except Prn maps in the domain shared by UL26 and UL26.5, between codons 307 and 417. |

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.
