| Abstract | Genome-wide screening using gene deletion mutants has been widely carried out with numerous toxicants including oxidants and metal ions. The focus of such studies usually centres on identifying sensitive phenotypes against a given toxicant. Here, we screened the complete collection of yeast gene deletion mutants (5047) with increasing concentrations of aluminium sulphate (0.4, 0.8, 1.6 and 3.2 mM) in order to discover aluminium (Al3+) tolerant phenotypes. Fifteen genes were found to be associated with Al3+ transport because their deletion mutants exhibited Al3+ tolerance, including lem3Δ, hal5Δ and cka2Δ. Deletion of CKA2, a catalytic subunit of tetrameric protein kinase CK2, gives rise to the most pronounced resistance to Al3+ by showing significantly higher growth compared to the wild type. Functional analysis revealed that both molecular regulation and endocytosis are involved in Al3+ transport for yeast. Further investigations were extended to all the four subunits of CK2 (CKA1, CKA2, CKB1 and CKB2) and the other 14 identified mutants under a spectrum of metal ions, including Al3+, Zn2+, Mn2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Co3+, Ga3+, Cd2+, In3+, Ni2+ and Cu2+, as well as hydrogen peroxide and diamide, in order to unravel cross-tolerance amongst metal ions and the effect of the oxidants. Finally, the implication of the findings in Al3+ transport for the other species like plants and humans is discussed. |

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.
