| Abstract | RNA editing in the plastids and mitochondria of higher plants involves C to U conversion of specific nucleotides in the mRNA. This leads to the synthesis of proteins that are different from those predicted by the DNA sequence. Editing appears to have arisen at about the same time in both plastids and mitochondria, suggesting a common evolutionary origin. The problem we address here is whether or not there has been co-evolution of the editing systems in the two organelles. Our test system was editing of the Arabidopsis thaliana mRNAs for ndhB and nad2, and for ndhD and nad4, which encode homologous subunits of the plastid and mitochondrial NAD(P)H dehydrogenases, respectively. The editing sites in the Arabidopsis nad2 and nad4 mRNAs have previously been determined and we report here 19 editing sites in eight mRNAs in Arabidopsis plastids. Out of these, eight sites are localized in the ndhB mRNA. In its mitochondrial counterpart, nad2, 31 editing sites are present, none of which are shared with the ndhB gene. The Arabidopsis ndhD mRNA is edited at four positions, only one of which is shared by its mitochondrial homologue, nad4, which contains 32 editing sites. These findings suggest that, although editing in the two organelles may have derived from a single system, there is no significant conservation of editing sites in cognate mRNAs in plastids and mitochondria. |

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.
