| Abstract | The membrane-bound complex of bacterial periplasmic permeases consists of two hydrophobic integral membrane proteins and two copies of a hydrophilic ATP-binding protein. The ATP-binding proteins from all periplasmic permeases display a high level of sequence similarity and are referred to as 'conserved components.' The conserved component from the histidine permease, HisP, has been postulated on the basis of genetic evidence to be accessible at the exterior membrane surface, in contrast to the commonly postulated association with the interior membrane surface as peripheral membrane proteins. We have used proteolysis and biotinylation of membrane vesicles to show that HisP is accessible to these reagents at the external surface and that this orientation depends on the presence of the two hydrophobic components, HisQ and HisM. Several binding-protein-independent hisP mutants are shown to produce HisP proteins that are more susceptible to proteases from the external membrane surface. Since the hydrophilic component is well conserved also in a group of eukaryotic transporters, which together with many prokaryotic systems form the superfamily of traffic ATPases, this insight about its membrane topology has general implications for understanding the molecular mechanism of action of this large superfamily, which includes the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator and multidrug-resistance proteins. |

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.
