| Abstract | CD2 is a cell adhesion molecule found on the plasma membrane of T-lymphocytes. Its counter-receptor in rat is the structurally related CD48. This interaction is believed to contribute to the adhesion of T-cells to other cells such as cytotoxic targets and antigen presenting cells. Cell-cell adhesion involves the formation of multiple cell adhesion molecule complexes at the cell surface and if cell-cell de-adhesion is to occur, these complexes need to be disrupted. The affinities of cell adhesion molecule interactions are suggested to be relatively weak to allow this de-adhesion of cell-cell interactions. The CD2/CD48 interaction has been studied using recombinant extracellular proteins and the affinity of the interaction of soluble recombinant rat CD2–CD48 has been determined (at 37°C) using surface plasmon resonance (and shown to be weak), with the dissociation constant Kd=60–90 µm. The values determined by surface plasmon resonance results could be affected by the immobilisation of the ligand on the chip and any self-association on the chip. We used three different analytical ultracentrifuge procedures which each allowed the interaction to be studied in free solution without the need for an immobilisation medium. Both sedimentation equilibrium (using direct analysis of the concentration distribution and also modelling of molecular weight versus concentration data) and sedimentation velocity at 5°C yielded dissociation constants in the range of 20– 110 µm, supporting the surface plasmon resonance findings showing that binding between these cell adhesion molecules is relatively weak. These studies also ruled out the presence of any significant self-association of the reactants which could lead to systematic error in the surface plasmon resonance results. |

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.
