| Abstract | Mammalian translocase of mitochondrial inner membrane (mTim44) was isolated during representational difference analysis of cDNA from diabetic mouse kidney. Streptozotocin-induced diabetic mouse kidney cDNA was prepared and subtracted by normal mouse kidney cDNA. By using one of the isolated cDNA fragments as a screening probe, full-length cDNA of mTim44 was isolated from lambdaZAP kidney cDNA library. At the nucleotide level, mTim44 did not exhibit significant homology with any known genes; however, at the amino acid level, it had 50% similarity and 29% identity with yeast Tim44. C-terminal FLAG epitope-tagged mTim44 fusion protein was transiently expressed in COS7 cells. By using anti-FLAG epitope M2 monoclonal antibody, mTim44 was found to have its subcellular localization associated with mitochondria. By immunoelectron microscopy, mTim44 was seen in the paracrystalline structures within the mitochondria, as well as in their cristae. Mitochondrial import assay of in vitro translated mTim44 indicated that its precursor product ( approximately 50 kDa) was imported and proteolytically processed to a mature approximately 44-kDa protein, and its translocation was inner membrane potential (DeltaPsi)-dependent. Imported mTim44 was protected from protease digestion in which outer membranes were selectively permeabilized with digitonin. The mature form of mTim44 could be recovered in the supernatant of sonicated mitochondrial membrane fraction treated with 0.1 M Na2CO3, pH 11.5. The data indicate that mTim44 is a mitochondrial inner membrane protein, one of the members of the mammalian TIM complex and up-regulated in hyperglycemic states. |

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.
