| Abstract | African trypanosomes that cycle between mammalian hosts and the tsetse fly vector must be poised to survive in different environments. The control of stage-specific gene expression is undoubtedly one of the keys to successful adaptation, but no regulatory elements have been defined to date. Procyclins (also known as procyclic acidic repetitive proteins) are specifically expressed on the surface of procyclic and epimastigote forms in the fly. Procyclin genes are already transcribed in bloodstream forms, but stable mRNA, and later the protein, are first detected when the parasites begin to differentiate into procyclic forms. We have now identified a region of 16 bases that forms part of a predicted stem-loop structure in the 3' untranslated regions of different procyclin mRNAs; both the sequence and the secondary structure of this 16-mer appear to be required for efficient translation of a reporter gene in procyclic forms. The level of steady-state mRNA, its polyadenylylation, and its distribution in the cell are all unaffected by the presence or absence of this element. Deletion of the 16-mer alone reduces expression more than removal or reversal of the entire 3' untranslated region and flanking region, suggesting that there are additional negative regulatory elements in the same 3' untranslated region. |

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.
