| Abstract | Molecularly imprinted synthetic polymers were discovered 40 years back. They are prepared in the presence of interacting monomers around a molecule that acts as a template. Following polymerization of the monomers together with a large amount of a crosslinker and after removal of the template, an imprint is obtained whose shape and arrangement of functional groups are complementary to the structure of the template (often an analyte). Usually, selective binding of the analyte is observed. These highly cross-linked polymers are also well suitable to engineer enzyme-like activity and specificity. The first part of this review is a personal retrospective description of the first steps into this field. The second part describes recent efforts to develop enzyme models, e.g. for carboxypeptidase A, through the concept of transition state stabilization. It is shown that the introduction of special catalytic moieties such as metal ions leads to a defined orientation of groups inside the active site and, with this, to highly active catalysts. Their activity, efficiency, and proficiency clearly surpass those of other imprinted catalysts and even those of the corresponding catalytic antibodies. A further improvement was accomplished by placing the enzyme-analogue active site inside soluble nanoparticles. A special concept, referred to as “post dilution polymerization method” results in soluble, highly cross-linked, single molecule nanoparticles of controlled molecular weight (~ 39 kDa) having one catalytically active site per particle on average.

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.
