| Abstract | Short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) are ubiquitous components of complex animal and plant genomes. SINEs are believed to be important players in eukaryotic genome evolution. Studies on SINE integration sites have revealed non-random integration without strict nucleotide sequence requirements for the integration target, suggesting that the targeted DNA might assume specific secondary structures or protein associations. Here, we report that S1 SINE elements in the genomes of Brassica show an interesting preference for matrix attachment regions (MARs). Ten cloned genomic regions were tested for their ability to bind the nuclear matrix both before and after a SINE integration event. Eight of the genomic regions targeted by S1 display strong affinity for the nuclear matrix, while two show weaker binding. The SINE S1 did not display any matrix-binding capacity on its own in either non-methylated or methylated forms. In vivo, an integrated S1 is methylated while the surrounding genomic regions may remain undermethylated or undergo methylation. However, tested genomic regions containing methylated'S1, with or without methylated flanking genomic sequences, were found to vary in their ability to bind the matrix in vitro. These results suggest a possible molecular basis for a preferential targeting of SINEs to MARs and a possible impact of the integration events upon gene and genome function. |

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.
