| Abstract | The N-end rule pathway is a ubiquitin-dependent proteolytic system whose targets include proteins bearing destabilizing N-terminal residues. We carried out a synthetic lethal screen for Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants that require the N-end rule pathway for cell viability. A mutant thus identified, termed sln2, could not grow in the absence of Ubr1p, the recognition component of the N-end rule pathway, which was not essential for viability of the parental strain under the same conditions. Further analysis showed that inviability of sln2ubr1Δ cells could be rescued either by the HIS3 gene (which was absent from the parental strain) or by a high concentration of histidine in the medium. This defect in histidine uptake, exhibited by the sln2 mutant in the absence but not in the presence of Ubr1p, was traced to the gene HIP1, which encodes the histidine transporter. HIP1 was underexpressed in sln2 ubr1Δ cells, in comparison to either sln2 UBR1 or SLN2 ubr1Δ cells. Yet another property of the sln2 mutant was its inviability at 37 °C, which could not be rescued by either UBR1 or HIS3. This feature of sln2 allowed the cloning of SLN2, which was found to be a gene called CIN8, encoding a kinesin-like protein. Thus, either the N-end rule pathway or Cin8p must be present for the viability-sustaining rate of histidine import in S. cerevisiae auxotrophic for histidine. We consider possible mechanisms of this previously unsuspected link between kinesins, ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis, and the import of histidine. |

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.
