| Abstract | Introns can enhance gene expression levels. This effect is known as intron-mediated enhancement, which is different from that of enhancers or promoters. In our previous study, under the control of the cytomegalovirus or goat β-casein promoter, the vector containing intron V-TPOcDNA expressed the highest thrombopoietin (TPO) level, whereas the vector containing TPOgDNA expressed the lowest level. In order to verify whether intron V also improves TPO expression in the milk of transgenic mice, rat whey acidic protein promoter was used as regulatory element to construct mammary gland expression vectors including pTPOWA (containing TPOcDNA), pTPOWB (containing intron V-TPOcDNA), and pTPOWC (containing TPOgDNA). These vectors were transfected into HC-11 cells and the supernatants were analyzed at 48 h. The highest TPO level was found in pTPOWB (795 pg/mL) and the lowest level in pTPOWC (193 pg/mL). Then, corresponding vectors were microinjected into fertilized mice zygotes. Transgenic mice were identified by polymerase chain reaction and Southern blot. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to measure TPO levels in the milk of lactating transgenic mice. The highest and lowest TPO levels were found in transgenic mice carrying intron V-TPOcDNA (2,307 pg/mL) and in transgenic mice carrying TPOgDNA (242 pg/mL), respectively. Thus, intron V remarkably improved TPO expression in transgenic mice. |

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.
