| Abstract | Full-length cDNA encoding a fibrinolytic protease (PLFP) from the cDNA library of the polychaete, Periserrula leucophryna was cloned, sequenced and expressed in Escherichia coli. The entire cDNA of the PLFP clone was 921 bp (CDS: 41-837), including a coding nucleotide sequence of 798 bp, a 5′-untranslaed region of 40 bp, and a 3′-noncoding region of 83 bp. The ORF encoded a 265-amino acid polypeptide precursor consisting of a 36-residue signal sequence and a 229-residue mature polypeptide. The sequence alignment results of PLFP revealed sequence similarity with several fibrinolytic enzymes. Sequence analysis revealed a conserved catalytic triad of His78, Asp126 and Ser219 residues, suggesting that PLFP is a serine protease. Mature PLFP had an apparent molecular weight of approximately 25 kDa and was produced in inclusion bodies when expressed in E. coli. Substrate specificity results that recombinant PLFP was active towards Arg-X or Lys-X and did not hydrolyze substrates with nonpolar amino acids at the P1 site. Recombinant PLFP was strongly inhibited by typical serine protease inhibitors, further indicating that PLFP is a member of the serine protease family. PLFP was able to dissolve artificial plasminogenfree fibrin, and its fibrinolytic behavior was similar to that of plasmin. Taken these results together, PLFP is a new member of the fibrinolytic enzyme family with selective specificity on fibrin, and the availability of PLFP offers an attractive alternative approach for thrombolysis therapy because rPLFP is believed to have advantages over currently used plasminogen activators, that is, lower price and lower side effect. |

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.
