| Abstract | The 1H NMR spectrum of the catalytic subunit of Escherichia coli aspartate transcarbamoylase (EC 2.1.3.2) was simplified by using strains auxotrophic for the aromatic amino acids and a growth medium containing fully deuterated Trp, Phe, and His and partially deuterated Tyr. 1H resonances for Tyr in the catalytic trimer (M(r) = 10(5)) were partially resolved into five peaks at 27 degrees C, which above 50 degrees C were further resolved to give a distinct resonance for each of the eight Tyr residues in the polypeptide chain. Experiments on chemically modified catalytic subunits and on a mutant form in which Tyr-165 was converted to Ser-165 led to the assignment of resonances for Tyr-165, Tyr-240, and Tyr-185. Binding of the substrate, carbamoyl phosphate, caused shifts of two of the unassigned resonances, and the subsequent binding of the aspartate analog succinate perturbed the resonances corresponding to Tyr-165 and Tyr-240. The bisubstrate analog N-(phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartate produced a spectrum differing considerably from that caused by the combination of carbamoyl phosphate and succinate. The NMR spectrum for the Tyr-165-->Ser mutant trimer showed clearly that the single amino acid substitution caused conformational changes affecting the environment of residues remote from the position of the replacement. In contrast, the inactive mutant subunit in which Gly-128 was replaced by Asp exhibited a spectrum virtually identical to that of the wild-type protein. However, addition of the substrate carbamoyl phosphate caused a marked change in the spectrum of the mutant enzyme, whereas that of the wild-type trimer was altered only slightly, showing that the effect of the amino acid substitution was manifested in the NMR spectrum only with the liganded enzyme. |

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.
