| Abstract | Optochin-resistant mutant and wild-type diaphorases were purified approximately 300-fold by a combination of batch adsorption and column chromatography with diethylaminoethyl cellulose, and were characterized with regard to their pH optima, sensitivity to optochin inhibition and heat inactivation, Michaelis constants with flavine mononucleotide (FMN) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), and inhibition constants with optochin hydrochloride. The pH optima of the purified diaphorases were similar, but the purified diaphorases from the optochin-resistant strains were approximately four to five times more resistant to heat inactivation at 45 C than was the wild-type diaphorase. Purified diaphorase preparations from the optochin-resistant pneumococci had greater activities per milligram of protein and were more resistant to optochin inhibition than the preparation from the optochin-sensitive pneumococcus. Michaelis constants for FMN and NADH were similar; however, the inhibition constants of the optochin-resistant diaphorases were four to eight times greater than that of the optochin-sensitive diaphorase. Optochin hydrochloride produced a noncompetitive type of inhibition with FMN as substrate but a competitive type of inhibition with NADH as substrate. Optochin hydrochloride produced an approximately 10-fold increase in the Michaelis constant for NADH. The concentration of drug required to produce this effect was, however, greater with the mutant diaphorases than with the wild-type diaphorase. Optochin hydrochloride quenched the fluorescence of riboflavine. This phenomenon did not appear to be related to the diaphorase-inhibitory activity of the drug, however, since the pH requirements of the two reactions were different. Quenching of riboflavine fluorescence by optochin hydrochloride increased with a rise in pH, whereas inhibition of diaphorase activity by optochin hydrochloride was greater at pH 6.8 than at pH 7.6. |

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.
