| Abstract | Divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) is generally considered to be the major transmembrane protein responsible for the uptake of a variety of divalent cations. Four isoforms of DMT1 have been identified in mammalian cells encoded by a single gene that differ both in their N- and C-terminal sequences with two mRNA isoforms possessing an iron response element (IRE) motif downstream from the stop codon on the message. Two distinct promoter sites regulate production of the 1A or 1B isoforms (translation starts at exon 2) for both the +IRE or –IRE species of the transporter resulting in the generation of four distinct configurations of this protein. Prior studies from our laboratory using cochlear organotypic cultures isolated from postnatal day three rats (P3) have demonstrated that Mn causes significant and selective damage to sensory hair cells and auditory nerve fibers and spiral ganglion neurons in a time and concentration dependent manner. Since DMT1 plays a critical role in controlling the uptake of a variety of essential and toxic metals into the cochlea, we compared the distribution and developmental changes of the 1A, +IRE and −IRE isoforms in rat inner ear. Results reveal that all three isoforms of DMT1 are selectively expressed in different cell populations within the cochlea and, additionally, demonstrate their cellular and subcellular distribution changes with development. |

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.
