| Abstract | Measles virus matrix protein expression is restricted in the persistently infected brain cells of patients with the chronic neurological disease subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE). Prior studies of the nature of this restriction have identified polyadenylylated matrix gene-encoded RNA transcripts unable to direct effective translation. The defective nature of these mRNAs readily accounted for the inability to detect matrix protein in these persistently infected cells and suggested that in SSPE the restriction of matrix protein expression is achieved by preventing its synthesis. Recently, however, we reported evidence that matrix protein is synthesized in at least one example of this persistent infection, the SSPE cell line IP-3-Ca. In this case, failure of matrix protein to accumulate normally accounted for its restricted expression [Sheppard, R. D., Raine, C. S., Bornstein, M. B. & Udem, S. A. (1985) Science 228, 1219-1221]. To clarify the nature of the restriction displayed by IP-3-Ca cells, the synthesis and fate of the matrix protein of this SSPE cell line were examined in detail. No evidence of constraints on the efficiency of matrix protein mRNA transcription or translation was found. Instead, the restricted expression proved to be the result of rapid posttranslational degradation of matrix protein. We suggest that matrix protein gene mutations incurred in the course of genome replication are likely to be responsible for the diversity of observed mechanisms restricting matrix protein expression. In that event, the nature and position of the nucleotide substitution(s) would be the determinants of the level at which restricted expression is achieved. |

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.
