| Abstract | The bacterial H+-pumping NADH-quinone oxidoreductase (NDH-1) is an L-shaped membrane-bound enzymatic complex. Escherichia coli NDH-1 is composed of 13 subunits (NuoA–N). NuoM (ND4) subunit is one of the hydrophobic subunits that constitute the membrane arm of NDH-1 and was predicted to bear 14 helices. We attempted to clarify the membrane topology of NuoM by the introduction of histidine tags into different positions by chromosomal site-directed mutagenesis. From the data, we propose a topology model containing 12 helices (helices I–IX and XII–XIV) located in transmembrane position and two (helices X and XI) present in the cytoplasm. We reported previously that residue Glu144 of NuoM was located in the membrane (helix V) and was essential for the energy-coupling activities of NDH-1 (Torres-Bacete, J., Nakamaru-Ogiso, E., Matsuno-Yagi, A., and Yagi, T. (2007) J. Biol. Chem. 282, 36914–36922). Using mutant E144A, we studied the effect of shifting the glutamate residue to all sites within helix V and three sites each in helix IV and VI on the function of NDH-1. Twenty double site-directed mutants including the mutation E144A were constructed and characterized. None of the mutants showed alteration in the detectable levels of expressed NuoM or on the NDH-1 assembly. In addition, most of the double mutants did not restore the energy transducing NDH-1 activities. Only two mutants E144A/F140E and E144A/L147E, one helix turn downstream and upstream restored the energy transducing activities of NDH-1. Based on these results, a role of Glu144 for proton translocation has been 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.
