| Abstract | (3′–5′)-Cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) is a bacterial second messenger with immunomodulatory activities in mice suggesting potential applications as a vaccine adjuvant and as a therapeutic agent. Clinical studies in larger animals or humans will require larger doses that are difficult and expensive to generate by currently available chemical or enzymatic synthesis and purification methods. Here we report the production of c-di-GMP at the multi-gram scale from the economical precursors guanosine monophosphate (GMP) and adenosine triphosphate by a “one-pot” three enzyme cascade consisting of GMP kinase, nucleoside diphosphate kinase, and a mutated form of diguanylate cyclase engineered to lack product inhibition. The c-di-GMP was purified to apparent homogeneity by a combination of anion exchange chromatography and solvent precipitation and was characterized by reversed phase high performance liquid chormatography and mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and further compositional analyses. The immunomodulatory activity of the c-di-GMP preparation was confirmed by its potentiating effect on the lipopolysaccharide-induced interleukin 1β, tumor necrosis factor α, and interleukin 6 messenger RNA expression in J774A.1 mouse macrophages. |

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.
