| Abstract | Bacteria are able to adapt to changes in the environment using two-component signal transduction systems (TCSs) composed of a histidine kinase (HK) and a response regulator (RR). Deinococcus radiodurans, one of the most resistant organisms to ionizing radiation, has 20 putative HKs and 25 putative RRs. In this study, we constructed 12 D. radiodurans mutant strains lacking a gene encoding a HK and surveyed their resistance to γ-radiation, UV-B radiation (302 nm), mitomycin C (MMC), and H2O2. Five (dr0860 −, dr1174 −, dr1556 −, dr2244 −, and dr2419 −) of the 12 mutant strains showed at least a one-log cycle reduction in γ-radiation resistance. The mutations (1) dr1174, dr1227, and dr2244 and (2) dr0860, dr2416, and dr2419 caused decreases in resistance to UV radiation and MMC, respectively. Only the dr2416 and dr2419 mutant strains showed higher sensitivity to H2O2 than the wild-type. Reductions in the resistance to γ-radiation and H2O2, but not to UV and MMC, were observed in the absence of DR2415, which seems to be a cognate RR of DR2416. This result suggests that DR2415/DR2416 (DrtR/S: DNA damage response TCS) may be another TCS responsible for the extreme resistance of D. radiodurans to DNA-damaging agents. |

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.
