| Abstract | Peripheral nervous system (PNS) and central nervous system (CNS) rodent myelins, which are produced by different cell types, share common morphological and functional characteristics although their major integral membrane proteins are completely different. Both types of myelin however, contain sets of four myelin basic proteins (MBPs), which share similar immunochemical and electrophoretic properties. We have isolated and characterized cDNA clones corresponding to the rat mRNAs encoding the small MBPs (SMBPs) found in both CNS and PNS myelin. Sequence analysis of these clones indicate that SMBPs in both divisions of the nervous system are encoded by the same nucleotide sequences, which suggests that they are the products of the same gene expressed in both oligodendrocyte and Schwann cells. In dot-blot hybridization experiments with the CNS SMBP cDNA as a probe, it was shown that there is a 20-fold higher level of MBP mRNA in a CNS myelin fraction than in total brainstem mRNA. It also was found that in optic and sciatic nerves, which contain oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells respectively, there are higher levels (4-fold and 2-fold, respectively) of MBP mRNA than in brainstem. Blot-hybridization experiments showed that a probe derived from the coding region of the rat SMBP cDNA hybridizes to an homologous mRNA (approximately equal to 2.6 kilobases) present in human optic nerve, which is not detectable with a probe derived from the 3' untranslated region. This conservation of coding-region sequences is in accord with the highly homologous amino acid sequences reported for the MBPs in the two species. |

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.
