| Abstract | We have developed a bacteriophage lambda cloning vector, lambda ORF8, that can be used for the construction of cDNA libraries. The wild-type lambda genome contains five BamHI, five EcoRI, and seven HindIII restriction sites that have all been removed from the genome of lambda ORF8. Sites for these endonucleases are present within the multiple cloning site of lambda ORF8. We report a method for preparing cDNAs that can be cloned in a single orientation in our phage vector. The method utilizes the synthesis of double-stranded cDNA, including priming of first-strand synthesis by oligo(dT). After completion of second-strand synthesis, a bifunctional oligodeoxynucleotide linker is ligated to the cDNA fragments. This linker, which contains a BamHI restriction site, will create a HindIII restriction site when ligated to the 3' end of cDNA fragments. Subsequent treatment of methylated cDNA with HindIII and BamHI endonucleases allows these fragments to be cloned directionally into lambda ORF8. To demonstrate the utility of this cloning system, we prepared a library from 5 micrograms of mRNA isolated from phytohemagglutinin-stimulated human peripheral blood lymphocytes. The primary library contained 2 X 10(8) plaque-forming phage, at least 80% of which contain inserts. A portion of the library was examined for the presence of gamma-interferon-related clones to verify the method had generated a library that was representative of phytohemagglutinin-stimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes. This simple and efficient cDNA cloning system significantly reduces the amount of RNA and effort required for the preparation of large directionally cloned libraries. |

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.
