| Abstract | Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have great potential for use in developmental biology studies, functional genomics applications, drug screening, and regenerative medicine. A detailed understanding of the molecular mechanisms that are responsible for maintaining the undifferentiated and pluripotent nature of hESCs is essential for their effective therapeutic application. It has become evident that many complex cellular processes are carried out by assemblies of protein molecules (protein complexes). Blue native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (BN-PAGE) has been used to separate protein complexes from whole cell lysates. Using BN-PAGE, we resolved cytoplasmic and membrane-associated complexes from hESCs and characterised their composition, stoichiometry, and dynamics by denaturing SDS-PAGE. The reliability of the fractionation was examined by western blot analysis of membrane and cytosolic markers. MALDI TOF/TOF mass spectrometry identified 119 cytosolic and 69 membrane proteins from the BN-PAGE proteome maps. Potential protein complexes were validated by computational prediction of possible protein–protein interactions using the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins (STRING) database. Based on BN-PAGE gels and validation by databases, 82 heteromultimeric and 47 homomultimeric protein complexes have been found in hESCs. Resolving some of the protein complexes provided insight into the function of previously uncharacterised complexes in hESCs. |

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.
