| Abstract | A molecular understanding of genetic disease in which peroxisomal functions are impaired depends on analysis of the structure of normal and mutant enzymes of peroxisomes. We report experiments describing the isolation, characterization, and immunocytochemical localization of enoyl-CoA hydratase/3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase bifunctional enzyme (PBE) of the peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation system from normal human liver and compared it with that of rat liver enzyme. The human enzyme, purified approximately equal to 2300-fold by ion-exchange chromatography, is homogeneous as judged by NaDodSO4/PAGE. This PBE is localized exclusively in the matrix of peroxisomes in liver cells by the protein A/gold immunocytochemical method. The human PBE is similar to rat enzyme in size (Mr, approximately equal to 79,000), isoelectric point (pI, 9.8), pH optima, molecular structure as observed by rotary shadowing, and peptide pattern on NaDodSO4/PAGE after proteolytic digestion with Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease. The human and rat enzymes differed in their immunological properties by having partial identity with each other; this is reflected in their slightly dissimilar composition of the amino acids aspartic acid, threonine, glutamic acid, tyrosine, and glycine. COOH-terminal amino acid were similar for both the enzymes: -Gly-Ser-Leu-Ile-COOH. These results suggest that the human and rat liver PBE may be different in their amino acid sequences at their antigenic sites. |

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.
