| Abstract | It is known that one of the reasons, leading to the development of neuromuscular diseases, including Parkinson’s disease, is damage of the mitochondrial NADH-dehydrogenase. Perhaps, it happens when NADH-dehydrogenase loses connection with its coenzyme – flavine mononucleotide (FMN) that occurs at various influences on the enzyme. Previously, we have developed a method, based on fluorescence spectroscopy, to monitor the rate of exit of FMN from isolated mitochondria to solution. Also, we obtained the data that this process is blocked by the enzyme substrate – NADH or by the product – NAD. Recently, we found that this process is strongly blocked by adenine analogs of NAD, contained phosphates: ATP, ADP, and AMP. Adenosine phosphates are able to stabilize the FMN molecule in NADH-dehydrogenase. Using fluorescence spectroscopy and photocolorimetry, we have tested also other natural purine compounds - cAMP, cGMP, GMP, GDP, GTP, IMP, inosine, guanine, and caffeine. It is found that such derivatives of guanine as GMP, GDP, and GTP can prevent the release of FMN into solution. Guanine, cGMP, cAMP and caffeine did not prevent this process. The obtained data allow understand the mechanism of mitochondrial diseases, involving damage of mitochondrial NADH-dehydrogenase, and may help in development of medicines for treatment of these diseases. |

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.
