| Abstract | Addition of membrane vesicles prepared from transverse tubule (T-tubule) membranes of rabbit skeletal muscle to the aqueous phase of a planar lipid bilayer induces a stepwise increase in conductance. This conductance is both voltage and Ca2+ dependent. At 1 mM Ca2+, the steady-state conductance is maximal at voltages higher than +20 mV and decreases for more negative voltages. (Voltages refer to the side to which the vesicles are added, cis) Decreasing the Ca2+ concentration reversibly shifts the conductance-voltage curve toward the right along the voltage axis. Furthermore, Ca2+ can activate the conductance only if added to the cis compartment. Neither Mg2+, Ba2+, nor Cd2+ can activate the conductance induced by T-tubule vesicles. Addition of 5 mM tetraethylammonium ion to the trans, but not the cis, side abolishes the T-tubule-induced conductance. The Ca2+-dependent conductance appears as a consequence of ionic channel formation. Single-channel activity appears in bursts followed by periods of time in which the channel remains "silent". The conductance of the open channel averages 226 pS in 0.1 M KC1 and is voltage and Ca2+ independent. However, the fraction of time that the channel remains in the open state is voltage and Ca2+ dependent in a manner that parallels the voltage and Ca2+ dependence of the multichannel membrane. The channel is 6.6 times more permeable to K+ than to Na+ and is impermeable to C1-. |

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.
