| Abstract | Upon renaturation, the polyprotein MBP-delta TF-Protease-delta Pol, consisting of HIV-1 protease and short native sequences from the trans-frame protein (delta TF) and the polymerase (delta Pol) fused to the maltose-binding protein (MBP) of Escherichia coli, undergoes autoprocessing to produce the mature protease in two steps. The initial step corresponds to cleavage of the N-terminal sequence to release the protein intermediate Protease-delta Pol, which has enzymatic activity comparable to that of the mature enzyme. Subsequently, the mature enzyme is formed by a slower cleavage at the C terminus. The rate of increase in enzymatic activity is identical to that of the appearance of MBP-delta TF and the disappearance of the MBP-delta TF-Protease-delta Pol. Initial rates are linearly dependent on the protein concentration, indicating that the N-terminal cleavage is first-order in protein concentration. The reaction is competitively inhibited by pepstatin A and has a pH rate profile similar to that of the mature enzyme. These results and molecular modeling studies are discussed in terms of a mechanism in which a dimeric full-length fusion protein must form prior to rate-limiting intramolecular cleavage of the N-terminal sequence that leads to an increase in enzymatic activity. |

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.
