| Abstract | Escherichia coli KBT001, a methionine-vitamin B12 auxotroph, was found to require a minimum of 20 molecules of vitamin B12 (CN-B12) per cell for aerobic growth in the absence of methionine. After mutagenesis with N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine and penicillin selection, two kinds of B12 transport mutant were isolated from this strain. Mutants of class I, such as KBT069, were defective in the initial rapid binding of CN-B12 to the cell and were unable to grow in the absence of methionine even with CN-B12 concentrations as high as 100 ng/ml. The class II mutants possessed intact initial phases of CN-B12 uptake but were defective in the secondary energy-dependent phase. These strains were also unable to convert the CN-B12 taken up into other cobalamins. In the absence of methionine, some of these strains (e.g., KBT103) were able to grow on media containing 1 ng of CN-B12/ml, whereas others (e.g., KBT041) were unable to grow with any of the CN-B12 concentrations used. Osmotic shock treatment did not affect the initial rate of uptake of CN-B12 but gave a substantial decrease in the secondary rate. Trace amounts of B12-binding macromolecules were released from the cells by the osmotic shock, but only from strains such as KBT001 and KBT041 which possessed an active initial phase of CN-B12 uptake. These results are interpreted as being consistent with the view that the initial CN-B12 binding site which functions in this transport system is probably bound to the cell membrane. |

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.
