| Abstract | Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is strongly linked to Kaposi's sarcoma, primary effusion lymphomas, and a subset of multicentric Castleman's disease. The mechanism by which this virus establishes latency and reactivation is unknown. KSHV Lyta (lytic transactivator, also named KSHV/Rta), mainly encoded by the ORF 50 gene, is a lytic switch gene for viral reactivation from latency, inasmuch as it is both essential and sufficient to drive the entire viral lytic cycle. Here we show that the Lyta promoter region was heavily methylated in latently infected cells. Treatment of primary effusion lymphoma-delivered cell lines with tetradecanoylphorbol acetate caused demethylation of the Lyta promoter and induced KSHV lytic phase in vitro. Methylation cassette assay shows demethylation of the Lyta promoter region was essential for the expression of Lyta. In vivo, biopsy samples obtained from patients with KSHV-related diseases show the most demethylation in the Lyta promoter region, whereas samples from a latently infected KSHV carrier remained in a methylated status. These results suggest a relationship among a demethylation status in the Lyta promoter, the reactivation of KSHV, and the development of KSHV-associated diseases. |

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.
