| Abstract | The N-terminal 392 amino acids of the Drosophila kinesin alpha subunit (designated DKH392) form a dimer in solution that releases only one of its two tightly bound ADP molecules on association with a microtubule, whereas a shorter monomeric construct (designated DKH340) releases > or = 95% of its one bound ADP on association with a microtubule. This half-site reactivity of dimeric DKH392 is observed over a wide range of ratios of DKH392 to microtubules and steady-state ATPase rates, indicating that it is characteristic of the mechanism of microtubule-stimulated ATP hydrolysis and not the result of a fortuitous balance of rate constants. When [alpha-32P]ATP is included in the medium, incorporation of 32P label into the pool of ADP that is bound to the complex of DKH392 and microtubules occurs rapidly enough for the bound ADP to be an intermediate on the main pathway of ATP hydrolysis. These and other results are consistent with the half-site reactivity being a consequence of the tethering of dimeric DKH392 to the microtubule through one head domain, which is attached in a rigor-like manner without bound nucleotide, whereas the other head is not attached to the microtubule and still contains a tightly bound ADP. An intermediate of this nature and the tight binding of DKH392 to microtubules in the presence of ATP suggest a mechanism for directed motility in which the head domains of dimeric DKH392 alternate in a sequential manner. |

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.
