| Abstract | Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3), an antiviral innate immunity receptor recognizes double-stranded RNA, preferably of viral origin and induces type I interferon production, which causes maturation of phagocytes and subsequent release of chemical mediators from phagocytes against some viral infections. The present study has characterized TLR3 complementary DNA (cDNA) in buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) and nilgai (Boselaphus tragocamelus). TLR3 coding sequences of both buffalo and nilgai were amplified from cultured dendritic cell cDNA and cloned in pGEMT-easy vector for characterization by restriction endonucleases and nucleotide sequencing. Sequence analysis reveals that 2,715-bp-long TLR3 open reading frame encoding 904 amino acids in buffalo as well as nilgai is similar to that of cattle. Buffalo TLR3 has 98.6 and 97.9% identity at nucleotide level with nilgai and cattle, respectively. Likewise, buffalo TLR3 amino acids share 96.7% identity with cattle and 97.8% with nilgai. Non-synonymous substitutions exceeding synonymous substitutions indicate evolution of this receptor through positive selection among these three ruminant species. Buffalo and nilgai appear to have diverged from a common ancestor in phylogenetic analysis. Predicted protein structures of buffalo and nilgai TLR3 from deduced amino acid sequences indicate that the buffalo and nilgai TLR3 ectodomain may be more efficient in ligand binding than that of cattle. Furthermore, TLR3 messenger RNA expression in tissues as quantified by real-time PCR was found higher in nilgai than buffalo. |

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.
