| Abstract | Expression of the avian apoVLDLII gene is liver specific and completely dependent on estrogen. Previous analyses of protein binding sites in the apoVLDLII promoter revealed interactions between liver-enriched and ubiquitous factors at a location, site F', between nucleotides -229 and -260 relative to the major transcriptional start site. Site-directed mutagenesis of G residues contacted by these factors decreased expression from the promoter approximately 5-fold in the avian hepatoma cell line LMH2A. We have used this site to screen a cDNA expression library constructed from day 9 embryonic liver RNA. One of the two DNA binding factors isolated is a novel homeodomain protein. With the exception of the homeodomain itself, which is atypically located close to the protein N-terminus, the factor displays little similarity to any known DNA binding protein. Its homeodomain is most similar to that of the maize protein Knotted-1, while the most closely related vertebrate domain is that of the human proto-oncoprotein Pbx1. We demonstrate that the DNA binding specificity of the factor is consistent with its involvement in the ubiquitous complex formed with site F' and that it is capable of suppressing expression from the apoVLDLII promoter in short-term transfection experiments. These studies, combined with its DNA binding specificity, the tissue distribution of its mRNA and its developmental regulation, suggest a role as a negative regulator of gene expression in non-hepatic tissues and in the liver early during embryogenesis. |

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.
