| Abstract | Chicken syncytial virus, a member of the reticuloendotheliosis virus family, induces B-cell lymphomas in chickens that arise by transcriptional activation of the chicken c-myc gene. In vitro transcription studies on cloned tumor DNA containing a deleted chicken syncytial virus provirus integrated upstream from, and in the same transcriptional orientation as, the chicken c-myc coding region were utilized to map possible transcriptional promoters and initiation sites. In vitro transcripts extending into c-myc sequences were initiated at two sites within the downstream long terminal repeat (LTR) closest to c-myc coding sequences. Both initiation sites have been precisely mapped by S1 nuclease and DNA sequencing methods. One site (I1) lies at the U3-R junction of the LTR, and the other site (I2) lies approximately 160 nucleotides upstream. Transcriptional control signals, including TATA- and CAAT-like sequences are present at appropriate distances upstream from the initiation sites. Both initiation sites are utilized to a similar extent. The upstream chicken syncytial virus LTR was also shown to be transcriptionally active in vitro. Two strong transcriptional initiation sites were also found in the LTR of spleen necrosis virus, a related member of the reticuloendotheliosis virus family; therefore, it seems likely that the existence of two transcriptional initiation sites is a common feature of the reticuloendotheliosis virus LTR, in contrast to other previously studied retroviral LTRs that exhibit one such site. The possible implications of these findings are discussed. |

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.
