| Abstract | Human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I) contains the pX sequence which codes for the trans-activator of the long terminal repeat (LTR) and is thus postulated to be associated with leukemogenesis in adult T-cell leukemia. Overlapping open reading frames (ORF) in the pX sequence were recently found to code for p27x-III and p21x-III by ORF III, in addition to p40x coded for by ORF IV. The mechanism of expression of these newly identified proteins and their possible association with trans-activation were studied. On transfection of an expression plasmid that contains a cDNA sequence of the pX mRNA, products from both ORFs III and IV were detected in the cells. The RNA was synthesized in vitro from the cDNA clone by SP6 RNA polymerase and translated in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate. As translation products, two proteins, p27x-III and p21x-III, were detected in addition to p40x. Elimination of the first and second ATG codons in ORF III resulted in loss of the ability to code for p27x-III and p21x-III, respectively, which indicated that the translations from these two ATG codons were independent. A mutant that lacked both ATG codons was fully active in trans-activation of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase gene expression directed by the LTR. These results indicate that a 2.1-kilobase pX mRNA of HTLV-I independently encodes three proteins, p40x, p27x-III, and p21x-III, by different ORFs and that the last two proteins are not involved in trans-activation of the unintegrated LTR. |

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.
