| Abstract | The interferon-γ-inducible lysosomal thiol reductase (GILT) has been demonstrated to play an important role in the processing and presentation of MHC class II-restricted antigen (Ag) by catalyzing disulfide bond reduction. In this study, a rainbow trout cDNA (designated as rGILT) was cloned and identified from Oncorhynchus mykiss. The open reading frame of rGILT consists of 759 bases encoding a protein of 253 amino acids with an estimated molecular mass of 28.23 kDa and a theoretical isoelectric point of 4.94. The rGILT exhibited a characteristic GILT signature sequence CQHGX2ECX2NX4C and CXXC motif. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that rGILT had been derived from a common ancestor with other GILT proteins. RT-PCR results showed that rGILT and rIFN-γ (rainbow trout IFN-γ) mRNA was expressed in a tissue-specific manner and obviously up-regulated in splenocytes and the cells from head kidney after induction with LPS. Recombinant rGILT fused with His6 tag was efficiently expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) and purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. Further study revealed that rGILT was capable of catalyzing the reduction of the interchain disulfide bonds from intact IgG. This study shows that rGILT may be involved in the immune response to bacteria challenge and maintain first line of innate immune defense at basal level in O. mykiss. It also provides the basis for investigating on the role of GILT using O. mykiss as an animal model for related studies. |

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.
