| Abstract | It has been reported that the level of d-biotin in the growth medium of Lactobacillus plantarum regulates the synthesis of apoacetyl-coenzyme A (CoA) carboxylase; high levels cause repression, and deficient levels effect derepression. In this study, evidence has been obtained which suggests that coenzyme repression by biotin is an indirect effect; i.e., biotin regulates the synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids which are the true repressors of the acetyl-CoA carboxylase. This was observed in an experiment in which long-chain unsaturated fatty acids were added to media containing deficient, sufficient, or excess levels of d-biotin. In every case, independently of the biotin concentration for growth, the unsaturated fatty acids caused a severe repression of the carboxylase. Saturated fatty acids were without effect. The level of oleic acid required to give maximal repression was 50 μg/ml. The free fatty acids had no adverse effect on the activity of the cell-free extracts nor on the permeation of d-biotin into the cell. Saturated and unsaturated fatty acids decreased the rate of holocarboxylase formation from d-biotin and the apoacetyl-CoA carboxylase in the extracts. It is concluded that there are at least three mechanisms that control the acetyl-CoA carboxylase in this organism: (i) indirect coenzyme repression by d-biotin, (ii) repression by unsaturated fatty acids, and (iii) regulation of the activity of the holocarboxylase synthetase by both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. |

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.
