| Abstract | E1/E3-deleted adenoviral vectors expressing an N-terminal green fluorescent protein (GFP) reporter gene fused to either wtCFTR (H5.040CMVEGFP-wtCFTR) or ΔF508-CFTR (H5.040CMVEGFP-ΔF508CFTR) were generated. To characterize the expression and activity, A549 cells were infected with vectors expressing GFP-tagged and non-tagged forms of CFTR and ΔF508CFTR. CFTR activity was assayed in cell-attached and excised patches. For H5.040CMVEGFP-wtCFTR, forskolin-dependent outward current was observed in cell-attached patches from 56 of 67 GFP-positive cells. Single-channel conductances, open probability, mean open and mean closed time values for GFP-CFTR and CFTR were not significantly different. After excision, GFP-CFTR activity required ATP and exhibited a linear I-V relationship. For H5.040CMVEGFP-ΔF508CFTR, media were supplemented with 5 mM butyrate 16 h after infection. Forskolin-dependent outward current was observed in cell-attached patches from 21 of 30 butyrate-treated GFP-positive cells and 0 of 8 GFP-positive cells without butyrate. Single-channel conductances, open probability, mean open and mean closed time values for GFP-ΔF508CFTR and ΔF508CFTR were not significantly different. However, the increase in open probability with genistein was significantly smaller for GFP-ΔF508CFTR than for ΔF508CFTR. In excised patches, GFP-ΔF508CFTR activity required ATP and exhibited a linear I-V relationship. Despite the consistent detection of GFP-CFTR and GFP-ΔF508CFTR channels in the plasma membrane by patch clamping, GFP fluorescence was observed only in intracellular regions and was not altered by butyrate. The data show that high levels of functional GFP-tagged CFTR channels can be expressed with these adenoviral vector constructs. |

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.
