| Abstract | Two mutants of Escherichia coli K-12 are described which are resistant to the inhibition that valine exerts on the growth of E. coli. These mutants have lesions at two different loci on the chromosome. One of them, brnP, is linked to leu (87% cotransduction) and is located between leu and azi represented on the map at 1 min; the other, brnQ, is linked to phoA (96% cotransduction), probably between proC and phoA and represented at 10 min. These mutants are resistant to valine inhibition but are sensitive to dipeptides containing valine. Since it is known that dipeptides are taken up by E. coli through a transport system(s) different from those used by amino acids, this sensitivity to the peptides suggests an alteration in the active transport of valine. The mutants are resistant to valine only if leucine is present in the growth medium; the uptake of valine is less in both mutants than it is in wild-type E. coli, and it is reduced even further if leucine is present. Under these conditions the total uptake of valine is almost completely abolished in the brnQ mutant. The brnP mutant takes up about 60% as much valine as does the wild type, but no exogenous valine is incorporated into proteins. The apparent K m and V max of isoleucine, leucine, and valine for the transport system are reported; the brnP mutant, when compared to the wild type, has a sevenfold higher K m for isoleucine and a 17-fold lower K m for leucine; the V max for the three amino acids is reduced in the brnQ mutant, up to 20-fold for valine. The transport of arginine, aspartic acid, glycine, histidine, and threonine is not altered in the brnQ mutant under conditions in which that of the branched amino acids is. Evidence is reported that O-methyl-threonine enters E. coli through the transport system for branched amino acids, and that thiaisoleucine does not. |

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.
