| Abstract | Monoclonal antibodies were produced against gamma-irradiated amastigotes of Leishmania major. Five antibodies (T16 through T20) were selected which reacted in enzyme-linked immunoassays with the intracellular stage of the parasite. These antibodies did not react with promastigotes of L. major or Leishmania donovani. One of the monoclonal antibodies (T16) reacted with amastigotes of Leishmania mexicana amazonensis and L. donovani. Western blotting (immunoblotting) and immunoprecipitation of [35S]methionine-labeled amastigotes demonstrates that T16 reacted with multiple L. major amastigote components between 12 and 180 kilodaltons. Antibody T20 was shown to recognize a low-molecular-mass doublet (less than 26 kilodaltons) in both [14C]leucine- and [35S]methionine-labeled amastigotes. A protein of less than 180 kilodaltons was also weakly recognized by T17, T19, and T20 in metabolically labeled amastigotes. This protein reacted strongly with T16. The reactive antigens could be identified on the surface of amastigotes isolated from the lesions of infected mice and on newly transformed amastigotes within 24 h after the infection of mouse peritoneal macrophages by promastigotes. These monoclonal antibodies should prove useful for the diagnosis of L. major in human tissue biopsies. |

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.
