| Abstract | Whole-genome sequence analysis of Bacillus halodurans ATCC BAA-125 revealed an isomerase gene (rhaA) encoding an l-rhamnose isomerase (l-RhI). The identified l -RhI gene was cloned from B. halodurans and over-expressed in Escherichia coli. DNA sequence analysis revealed an open reading frame of 1,257 bp capable of encoding a polypeptide of 418 amino acid residues with a molecular mass of 48,178 Da. The molecular mass of the purified enzyme was estimated to be ∼48 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and 121 kDa by gel filtration chromatography, suggesting that the enzyme is a homodimer. The enzyme had an optimal pH and temperature of 7 and 70°C, respectively, with a k cat of 8,971 min−1 and a k cat/K m of 17 min−1 mM−1 for l-rhamnose. Although l-RhIs have been characterized from several other sources, B. halodurans l-RhI is distinguished from other l-RhIs by its high temperature optimum (70°C) with high thermal stability of showing 100% activity for 10 h at 60°C. The half-life of the enzyme was more than 900 min and ∼25 min at 60°C and 70°C, respectively, making B. halodurans l-RhI a good choice for industrial applications. This work describes one of the most thermostable l-RhI characterized thus far. |

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.
