| Abstract | We have demonstrated that a highly conserved segment of DNA between positions -288 and -317 (upstream sequence element IV [USE IV]) is largely responsible for the transcriptional activation of the sea urchin H1-beta histone gene during the blastula stage of embryogenesis. This sequence is capable of acting as an embryonic enhancer element, activating target genes in a stage-specific manner. Nuclear extracts prepared from developmentally-staged organisms before and after the gene is activated all contain a factor which specifically binds to the enhancer. We have purified a 43-kDa polypeptide which binds to and footprints the USE IV enhancer element. We refer to this protein as stage-specific activator protein 1 (SSAP-1). Early in development before the enhancer is active, SSAP appears as a 43-kDa monomer, but it undergoes a change in its molecular weight beginning at about 12 h postfertilization (early blastula) which precisely parallels the increase in H1-beta gene expression. Modified SSAP has an apparent molecular mass of approximately 90 to 100 kDa and contains at least one 43-kDa SSAP polypeptide. Thus, it is the disappearance of the 43-kDa species and the appearance of the 90- to 100-kDa species which coincide with the H1-beta gene activation. The correlation between the change in molecular weight of SSAP and the stage-specific activation of H1-beta gene expression strongly suggests that this higher-molecular-weight form of SSAP is directly responsible for the blastula stage-specific transcriptional activation of the late H1 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.
