| Abstract | The Saccharomyces cerevisiae Sec7 protein (ySec7p), which is an important component of the yeast secretory pathway, contains a sequence of approximately 200 amino acids referred to as a Sec7 domain. Similar Sec7 domain sequences have been recognized in several guanine nucleotide-exchange proteins (GEPs) for ADP ribosylation factors (ARFs). ARFs are approximately 20-kDa GTPases that regulate intracellular vesicular membrane trafficking and activate phospholipase D. GEPs activate ARFs by catalyzing the replacement of bound GDP with GTP. We, therefore, undertook to determine whether a Sec7 domain itself could catalyze nucleotide exchange on ARF and found that it exhibited brefeldin A (BFA)-inhibitable ARF GEP activity. BFA is known to inhibit ARF GEP activity in Golgi membranes, thereby causing reversible apparent dissolution of the Golgi complex in many cells. The His6-tagged Sec7 domain from ySec7p (rySec7d) synthesized in Escherichia coli enhanced binding of guanosine 5'-[gamma-[35S]thio]triphosphate by recombinant yeast ARF1 (ryARF1) and ryARF2 but not by ryARF3. The effects of rySec7d on ryARF2 were inhibited by BFA in a concentration-dependent manner but not by inactive analogues of BFA (B-17, B-27, and B-36). rySec7d also promoted BFA-sensitive guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate binding by nonmyristoylated recombinant human ARF1 (rhARF1), rhARF5, and rhARF6, although the effect on rhARF6 was very small. These results are consistent with the conclusion that the yeast Sec7 domain itself contains the elements necessary for ARF GEP activity and its inhibition by BFA. |

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.
