| Abstract | Isocitrate lyase, encoded by the aceA gene, plays an important role in the ability of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to grow on fatty acids, acetate, acyclic terpenes, and amino acids. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the ICL superfamily is divided in two families: the ICL family, which includes five subfamilies, and the 2-methylisocitrate lyase (MICL) family. ICL from P. aeruginosa (ICL-Pa) was identified in a different ICL node (subfamily 3) than other Pseudomonas ICL enzymes (grouped in subfamily 1). Analysis also showed that psychrophilic bacteria are mainly grouped in ICL subfamily 3, whose ICL proteins contain the highly conserved catalytic pattern Q$_{IE}$N$_{Q}$V$_{S}$DE$_{K}$Q$_{CGH}$QD. We performed site-directed mutagenesis, enzymatic activity, and structure modeling of conserved residues in mutated ICLs by using ICL-Pa as a model. Our results indicated that the N214 residue is essential for catalytic function, while mutating the Q211, E219, and Q221 residues impairs its catalytic and thermostability properties. Our findings suggest that conserved residues in the subfamily 3 signature of ICL-Pa play important roles in catalysis and thermostability and are likely associated with the catalytic loop structural conformation. |

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.
