| Abstract | We applied whole-cell electron cryotomography to the archaeon Sulfolobus infected by Sulfolobus turreted icosahedral virus (STIV), which belongs to the PRD1-Adeno lineage of dsDNA viruses. STIV infection induced the formation of pyramid-like protrusions with sharply defined facets on the cell surface. They had a thicker cross-section than the cytoplasmic membrane and did not contain an exterior surface protein layer (S-layer). Intrapyramidal bodies often occupied the volume of the pyramids. Mature virions, procapsids without genome cores, and partially assembled particles were identified, suggesting that the capsid and inner membrane coassemble in the cytoplasm to form a procapsid. A two-class reconstruction using a maximum likelihood algorithm demonstrated that no dramatic capsid transformation occurred upon DNA packaging. Virions tended to form tightly packed clusters or quasicrystalline arrays while procapsids mostly scattered outside or on the edges of the clusters. The study revealed vivid images of STIV assembly, maturation, and particle distribution in cell. |

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.
