| Abstract | Transgenic tobacco plants expressing hammerhead ribozyme (Rz), which specifically cleaves Chrysanthemum Stunt Viroid (CSVd) RNA, were produced via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. To analyze the effects of Rz in cells, fire-fly luciferase (Luc) reporter genes, driven by the Cauliflower Mosaic Virus 35S promoter, which have the entire sense or anti-sense cDNA of the CSVd genome in between the Luc ORF and nopalin synthase terminator were constructed. Using particle bombardment, the Luc reporter constructs were delivered into the leaves of the transgenic tobacco plants. Levels of Luc mRNA and Luc enzyme activity were lower in the transgenic plants than in control wild-type plants, suggesting that the transcript of the Luc reporter gene was made unstable in the presence of Rz. On the other hand, mutations at the cleavage sites of the CSVd sequence in the reporter constructs suppressed the reduction of Luc enzyme activity in transgenic plants. A possibility of post-transcriptional gene silencing was ruled out. A direct evidence of the cleavage activity in cells by the experiment of rapid amplification of 5′ cDNA end could not obtained, but the present results suggest that the levels of Luc mRNA and Luc enzyme activity was affected by the ribozymes. |

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.
