| Abstract | Vitamin K antagonists such as warfarin inhibit the vitamin K-dependent gamma-glutamyl carboxylation during protein processing and block the secretion of under-gamma-carboxylated prothrombin (FII) in the rat but not in the human or bovine. Under-gamma-carboxylated prothrombin is also secreted from warfarin-treated human (HepG2) cell cultures but is degraded in the endoplasmic reticulum in warfarin-treated rat (H-35) cell cultures. This differential response to warfarin has been shown to be determined by the structural difference in the proteins rather than by the origin of the cell line. When recombinant rat prothrombin (rFII) and human prothrombin (hFII) were expressed in a transformed human kidney cell line (HEK293), secretion of rFII but not hFII was drastically decreased in response to warfarin. To determine the structural signal required for this differential response, chimeric cDNAs with the propeptide/Gla domains, kringle domain, and serine protease domain exchanged between rFII and hFII were generated (FIIRHH and FIIHRR, FIIRRH and FIIHHR, FIIRHR and FIIHRH) and expressed in both warfarin-treated HEK293 cells and HepG2 cells. The presence of the hFII kringle domain changed the stability of rFII to that of hFII, and the rFII kringle domain changed the stability of hFII to that of rFII. The kringle domain therefore is critical in determining the metabolic fate of under-gamma-carboxylated prothrombin precursors during processing. Prothrombin contains two kringle structures, and expression of additional rFII/hFII chimeras (FIIHrhH and FIIHhrH, FIIRrhR, and FIIRhrR) was used to determine that the first of the two kringles plays a more important role in the recognition process. |

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.
