| Abstract | Desmoplakins (DPs) I and II (approximately equal to 240 and approximately equal to 210 kDa) are major components of the internal portion of the desmosomal cytoplasmic plaque. Desmosomes play a crucial role in cell-cell adhesion and serve as specific attachment sites for cytoplasmic intermediate filaments. Although DP-I and -II are closely related molecules, their structure (i.e., amino acid or DNA sequence) has not been determined. In addition, it is not known whether these proteins are derived from one or more genes or whether they result from posttranscriptional or posttranslational events. This paper describes the isolation and characterization of eight DP cDNA clones from a bovine lambda gt11 expression library. Fusion proteins from six of these clones selected antibodies that reacted with DP-I and -II and two selected antibodies that reacted with DP-I alone. Antibodies made against fusion protein produced by the DP1A clone reacted specifically with DP-I and -II on immunoblots. When used for indirect immunofluorescence on bovine tongue cryostat sections and cultured mouse keratinocytes, these antibodies produced a typical desmosomal staining pattern. RNA blot analysis demonstrated hybridization of three DP-I/II cDNA probes with two messages of approximately equal to 7.5 and approximately equal to 9.5 kilobases in bovine tongue RNA. In contrast, a cDNA clone that affinity-purified antibodies reacting with DP-I only hybridized exclusively with the 9.5-kilobase band. Southern blots of genomic DNA digested with a panel of restriction enzymes were hybridized with one probe derived from a DP-I/II clone and with one from a DP-I clone. Both probes hybridized with single bands of the same size in each digested sample of DNA. Together, these data suggest that DP-I and DP-II are translated from two separate messages in bovine tongue and that these messages may be derived from a single gene. |

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.
