| Abstract | In human tissues, adenosine deaminase (ADA) (adenosine aminohydrolase; EC 3.5.4.4) activity can be separated by gel electrophoresis into several isozymes. A structural gene (ADA) on chromosome 20 codes for the “erythrocyte” isozyme, ADA-1, which is also expressed in some nonerythroid tissues. Nonerythroid cells also differentially express five ADA “tissue isozymes” of a greater molecular weight than ADA-1. Each ADA tissue isozyme has a characteristic electrophoretic mobility and tissue distribution. It has been suggested that these ADA tissue isozymes are composed of ADA-1 and other components. We report that the expression of one of these tissue isozymes, ADA-d, is dependent upon ADA on chromosome 20 and another gene on chromosome 6 which functions in the assembly of the ADA tissue isozymes. In human-mouse hybrids segregating human chromosomes, chromosome 6+,20+ hybrids express both ADA-1 and ADA-d; chromosome 6-,20+ hybrids express only ADA-1; while 6+,20- hybrids have no human ADA activity. ADA-d formation also occurs in vitro by self-assembly when an extract of human erythrocytes or chromosome 6-,20+ hybrids is mixed with a homogenate of chromosome 6+,20- hybrids. The gene on chromosome 6, designated ADCP, codes for an adenosine deaminase complexing protein. The product of ADCP presumably combines with ADA-1 to form the ADA tissue isozymes. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that the distribution of enzymatic activity between ADA-1 and the tissue isozymes depends on the expression of the gene for ADA complexing protein, while the differences in the electrophoretic mobilities of the ADA isozymes, except ADA-1, are generated, as suggested by others, by the degree of glycosylation of the complexing protein. |

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.
