| Abstract | We have studied the initial effects of adenovirus E1A expression on the retinoblastoma (RB) gene product in normal quiescent cells. Although binding of the E1A products to pRB could, in theory, make pRB phosphorylation unnecessary for cell cycle progression, we have found that the 12S wild-type E1A product is capable of inducing phosphorylation of pRB in normal quiescent cells. The induction of pRB phosphorylation correlates with E1A-mediated induction of p34cdc2 expression and kinase activity, consistent with the possibility that p34cdc2 is a pRB kinase. Expression of simian virus 40 T antigen induces similar effects. Induction of pRB phosphorylation is independent of the pRB binding activity of the E1A products; E1A domain 2 mutants do not bind detectable levels of pRB but remain competent to induce pRB phosphorylation and to activate cdc2 protein kinase expression and activity. Although the kinetics of induction are slower, domain 2 mutants induce wild-type levels of pRB phosphorylation and host cell DNA synthesis and yet fail to induce cell proliferation. These results imply that direct physical interaction between the RB and E1A products does not play a required role in the early stages of E1A-mediated cell cycle induction and that pRB phosphorylation is not, of itself, sufficient to allow quiescent cells to divide. These results suggest that the E1A products do not need to bind pRB in order to stimulate resting cells to enter the cell cycle. Indeed, a more important role of the RB binding activity of the E1A products may be to prevent dividing cells from returning to G0. |

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.
