| Abstract | Chromosome elimination is a process in which some chromatins are discarded from the presumptive somatic cells during early embryogenesis. Eliminated chromatins in hagfish generally consist of repetitive sequences, and they are highly heterochromatinized in germ cells. In this study, we characterized four novel eliminated DNA families, EEPs1–4, from the Taiwanese hagfish Paramyxine sheni. Sequences of these four elements occupied 20–27% of eliminated DNA in total, and each family was arranged mainly in tandem in the germline genome with high copy numbers. Although most of these elements were eliminated, a minor fraction remained in somatic cells. Some eliminated DNA families are shared as eliminated sequences between Eptatretidae and Myxinidae. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) of these elements showed that not only heterochromatic chromosomes but also both ends of euchromatic chromosomes in germ cells are absent in somatic cells of P. sheni. It strongly suggests that chromosome terminus elimination, in addition to whole chromosome elimination, contributes to somatic chromosome differentiation. Telomere-FISH further showed that chromosome fragmentation and the subsequent de novo addition of telomeric repeats are the likely mechanisms underlying chromosome terminus elimination. These characteristics make it indispensable to study the evolution and mechanisms underlying chromosome elimination in hagfish. |

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.
