| Abstract | The ARO3 gene encodes one of two 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate isoenzymes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae catalyzing the first step in the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids. The ARO3-encoded 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate-7-phosphate synthase (EC 4.1.2.15) is feedback inhibited by phenylalanine; its isoenzyme, the ARO4 gene product, is inhibited by tyrosine. Both genes ARO3 and ARO4 are strongly regulated under the general control regulatory system. Cells carrying only one intact isogene are phenotypically indistinguishable from a wild-type strain when grown on minimal medium. The complete functional ARO3 promoter comprises 231 base pairs and contains only one TGACTA binding site for the general control activator protein GCN4. Mutating this element to TTACTA inhibits binding of GCN4 and results in a decreased basal level of ARO3 gene product and slow growth of a strain defective in its isogene ARO4. In addition, ARO3 gene expression cannot be elevated under amino acid starvation conditions. An ARO3 aro4 strain with gcn4 genetic background has the same phenotype of low ARO3 gene expression and slow growth. The amount of GCN4 protein present in repressed wild-type cells therefore seems to contribute to a basal level of ARO3 gene expression. The general control activator GCN4 has thus two functions: (i) to maintain a basal level of ARO3 transcription (basal control) in the presence of amino acids and (ii) to derepress the ARO3 gene to a higher transcription rate under amino acid starvation (general control). |

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.
