| Abstract | A winged bean Kunitz-type chymotrypsin inhibitor (WCI) is expressed in seeds and tuberous roots. In seeds, the expression of WCI is restricted to the period between the mid- and late-maturation stage. To understand the mechanisms that regulate the expression of WCI genes, we analyzed the promoter activity of the upstream region of the WCI-3b gene, which encodes a major WCI protein, in transgenic tobacco plants. By using a series of constructs with 5′ deletions in the upstream sequences, the region between -882 and -623, relative to the transcription start site, was shown to contain multiple sequences which are responsible for high level expression in mid-maturation stage seeds. However, when this region was fused to the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S core promoter in both orientations, the chimeric promoters showed only a weak transcription activity in transgenic tobacco plants. Further analyses using internal deletion constructs revealed that the region between -882 and -174 is required for the transcription activation. Disruption of the RY sequence at -517, which is conserved in many seed protein genes, resulted in a drastic reduction of the transcription activity in seeds. These results suggest that sequences necessary for high level induction of the WCI-3b gene transcription in developing seeds are dispersed in the region between -882 and -174, and that the RY sequence is one of these sequences. |

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.
