| Abstract | We characterized 24 unrelated patients with a deficiency of the enzyme hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) in an attempt to better understand the nature and spectrum of mutations that underlie this prototype-inherited disease. Lymphoblast cell lines derived from each patient were analyzed at multiple molecular levels including the structure and function of the residual HPRT enzyme, messenger RNA (mRNA), and gene. Our studies demonstrate the following: (a) at least 16 of the 24 patients represent unique and independent mutations at the HPRT structural gene; (b) the majority of cell lines have normal quantities of mRNA but undetectable quantities of enzyme; (c) 33% of patients retain significant quantities of structurally altered, functionally abnormal, HPRT enzyme variants; and (d) a minority of patients are void of both enzyme and mRNA, possibly representing examples of aberrations in gene expression. Our studies provide direct evidence for marked genetic heterogeneity in this disorder and illustrate the kinds of mutations and mutational consequences that underlie inherited disease in humans. |

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.
