| Abstract | The purpose of these experiments was to determine the relative content and biosynthetic rate of insulins I and II under various experimental conditions. The two insulins were quantitated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, electrotransfer to nitrocellulose paper, photoaffinity crosslinking, and immunodetection with anti-insulin antibody and 125I-labeled protein A. The ratio (mean +/- SEM) of insulins, I/II, was 1.2 +/- 0.2 in Wistar-Furth rats fasted for 4 days, 1.6 +/- 0.2 in normal rats, and 5.5 +/- 0.8 in growth hormone-tumor-bearing hyperinsulinemic rats (P less than 0.01). The increase in content of rat insulin I compared to II in the growth hormone-tumor-bearing animals was confirmed by radioimmunoassay of gel slices. To determine whether the difference in contents of rat insulins I and II in the hyperinsulinemic rats was due to increased biosynthesis or a different turnover rate, isolated rat islets were incubated in [3H]leucine for 4 hr with 5.5 mM or 16.0 mM glucose in the incubation medium. Glucose stimulated insulin biosynthesis greater than 8-fold. The ratio of synthesis of rat insulin I relative to II was 0.9 +/- 0.1 at 5.5 mM glucose and 9.8 +/- 3.3 (P less than 0.01) at 16.0 mM glucose. Therefore, under conditions that stimulate insulin biosynthesis, there was a marked preferential synthesis of rat insulin I relative to II. These studies suggest that the two rat insulin genes are expressed independently and that, under stimulatory conditions, there is preferential expression of the rat insulin I gene. |

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.
