| Abstract | We studied the effect of antitumor cisplatin and inefficient transplatin on the structure and stability of G quadruplexes formed by the model human telomere sequence 5'-GGG(TTAGGG)(3)-3' using circular dichroism, UV-monitored thermal denaturation, and gel electrophoresis. In addition, to investigate whether there is a connection between the ability of cisplatin or transplatin to affect telomerase activity and stability of G quadruplexes, we also used a modified telomere repeat amplification protocol assay that uses an oligonucleotide substrate for telomerase elongation susceptible to forming a G quadruplex. The results indicate that cisplatin is more efficient than transplatin in disturbing the quadruplex structure, thereby precluding telomeric sequences from forming quadruplexes. On the other hand, the results of this work also demonstrate that in absence of free platinum complex, DNA adducts of antitumor cisplatin inhibit telomerase catalysis, so the mechanism underlying this inhibition does not involve formation of the G quadruplexes which are not elongated by telomerase. |

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.
