| Abstract | Tyrosine phosphorylation is one of the most common means of posttranslational modifications which can generate novel recognition motifs for protein interactions and thereafter affecting cellular localization, protein stability, and enzyme activity. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) possesses a wide range of signal transduction systems, including two protein tyrosine phosphatases (PtpA and PtpB). Since functional diversities between protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) are illustrated by regulatory domains and subunits, we have characterized the nature of tyrosine phosphatases from slow-grower pathogenic species Mtb and from fast-grower nonpathogenic species Mycobacterium smegmatis (MS). The findings delineate that the enzymes present in MS have significantly lesser phosphatase activity than PTPases of Mtb as evidenced by low K cat/K m of recombinantly expressed proteins. The K cat/K m for Mtb PtpA was 500–1000-fold higher than MS PTPases. We have designed and synthesized phenyl cyclopropyl methyl-/phenyl butenyl azoles which inhibit growth of mycobacteria, in culture and in macrophages. The mechanism of efficacy of these compounds against mycobacteria was identified and suggested that the inhibition may possibly be mediated via the targeting of Mtb tyrosine phosphatase. The results further added that these compounds exclusively inhibit PtpA of Mtb. |

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.
