| Abstract | The organization of amplified DNA in mammalian cells in the form of inverted repeats rather than tandem repeats was first observed and studied in the 3B rat cell line. The structure and chromosomal location of the amplified inverted duplications in this cell line have been further analyzed by cloning, long-range mapping, and fluorescence in situ hybridization. The amplification unit is at least 450 kilobases in size and all of the amplicons are located in a single chromosomal location of approximately 10 or 11 megabases. No heterogeneity in either size or molecular structure is detected between the 3B amplicons, indicating that the 20- to 40-fold amplification occurred in a single event and not through a series of events, which would result in heterogeneity among the amplicons. Thus the amplification in 3B cells may reflect more closely the situation seen in tumors containing amplified oncogenes/protooncogenes than the amplifications present in cell lines after multiple selections with cytotoxic drugs. The progenitor Rat-2 cell line contains three alleles of the region of DNA that is amplified in 3B cells; two are located on the two normal homologues of rat chromosome 2 and the third is at the equivalent position on a marker chromosome, der(3)t(2;3). 3B cells contain only one of the two normal homologues of chromosome 2 in addition to chromosome der(3)t(2;3). All of the amplified DNA is located on a new marker chromosome, M2, whose amplified DNA region does not resemble chromosome 2. These results are consistent with the amplification model proposed by Passananti et al. [Passananti, C., Davies, B., Ford, M. & Fried, M. (1987) EMBO J. 6, 1697-1703], in which the excision from a chromosome of the DNA to be amplified results in the loss of rearrangement of that chromosome. In this model the excised DNA can be amplified extrachromosomally during a single S phase before becoming stabilized by integration into a chromosome, probably at a different location to that of its unamplified allele. |

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.
