| Abstract | Dynein light chains are bivalent dimers that bind two copies of dynein intermediate chain IC to form a cargo attachment subcomplex. The interaction of light chain LC8 with the natively disordered N-terminal domain of IC induces helix formation at distant IC sites in or near a region predicted to form a coiled-coil. This fostered the hypothesis that LC8 binding promotes IC self-association to form a coiled-coil or other interchain helical structure. However, recent studies show that the predicted coiled-coil sequence partially overlaps the light chain LC7 recognition sequence on IC, raising questions about the apparently contradictory effects of LC8 and LC7. Here, we use NMR and fluorescence quenching to localize IC self-association to residues within the predicted coiled-coil that also correspond to helix 1 of the LC7 recognition sequence. LC8 binding promotes IC self-association of helix 1 from each of two IC chains, whereas LC7 binding reverses self-association by incorporating the same residues into two symmetrical, but distant, helices of the LC7-IC complex. Isothermal titration experiments confirm the distinction of LC8 enhancement of IC self-association and LC7 binding effects. When all three light chains are bound, IC self-association is shifted to another region. Such flexibility in association modes may function in maintaining a stable and versatile light chain-intermediate chain assembly under changing cellular conditions. |

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.
