| Abstract | Nuclear transformation of the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has thus far been characterized by integration of the introduced DNA into nonhomologous sites. In this study, the occurrence of homologous recombination events during transformation was investigated with the intent of developing strategies for gene targeting and gene disruption. Homologous recombination was monitored by using nonfunctional 5' and 3' deletion derivatives of the wild-type C. reinhardtii nit1 gene (encodes nitrate reductase) as selectable markers (p5' delta and p3' delta respectively) and the low reverting nit1-305 strain as the transformation recipient. After introduction of the DNA into the cell, intermolecular recombination between p5' delta and p3' delta occurs at a high frequency to restore a functional nit1 gene, indicating the presence of homologous recombination machinery in mitotic cells. Gene-targeting events at the nit1 locus were selected by restoring nit1-305 cells to prototrophy after transformation with only p5' delta and were confirmed by analysis of genomic DNA. By comparing the number of transformants obtained after transformation with p5' delta to the number obtained after transformation with a functional nit1 gene, the frequency of homologous-to-random integration events ranged between 1:1000 after glass bead-mediated transformation and 1:24 after bombardment with DNA-coated tungsten microprojectiles. |

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.
