| Abstract | N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) mutagenesis screens have been successful for identifying genes that affect important biological processes and diseases. However, for heart-related phenotypes, these screens have been employed exclusively for developmental phenotypes, and to date no adult cardiomyopathy-causing genes have been discovered through a mutagenesis screen. To identify novel disease-causing and disease-modifying genes for cardiomyopathy, we performed an ENU recessive mutagenesis screen in adult mice. Using noninvasive echocardiography to screen for abnormalities in cardiac function, we identified a heritable cardiomyopathic phenotype in two families. To identify the chromosomal regions where the mutations are localized, we used a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panel for genetic mapping of mouse mutations. This panel provided whole-genome linkage information and identified the mutagenized candidate regions at the proximal end of chromosome 1 (family EN1), and at the distal end of chromosome 15 (family EN25). We have identified 94 affected mice in family EN1 and have narrowed the candidate interval to 1 Mb. We have identified 20 affected mice in family EN25 and have narrowed the candidate interval to 12 Mb. The identification of the genes responsible for the observed phenotype in these families will be strong candidates for disease-causing or disease-modifying genes in patients with heart failure. |

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.
