| Abstract | Small GTP-binding proteins of the YPT/SEC4/Rab family have been shown to play an essential role in intracellular membrane trafficking. In mammals, Rab8 and Rab10 are the two small GTP-binding proteins identified so far that are closest to SEC4, an essential gene product involved in post-Golgi constitutive secretion in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. To study the localization of Rab proteins, we have expressed the cDNAs with an influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) epitope tag at the N terminus. The feasibility of this method was tested by using yeast SEC4. HA-tagged SEC4 functionally complemented a temperature-sensitive sec4 mutant similarly to wild-type SEC4, indicating that the modified protein retained functional integrity. Monoclonal antibody 12CA5, raised against the HA tag, was used to determine the expression and localization of HA-tagged proteins after transfection. In stably transfected CHO and Swiss 3T3 cells, HA-tagged Rab8 was localized to the cell periphery, with the highest concentration in the ruffling areas. In contrast, epitope-tagged Rab10 expressed in CHO and BHK cells was concentrated on membranes in the perinuclear region. By light microscopy, the staining partially overlapped with that of a Golgi marker, beta-COP. Thus, despite the high degree homology of Rab8 and Rab10 (66% identity), the two proteins are localized to distinct cellular compartments. This approach should provide a general tool for the analyses of other members of the YPT/SEC4/rab gene family. |

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.
