| Abstract | The catalytic core of the self-splicing group I intron RNAs is composed of six paired regions together with their connecting sequences; these are thought to form two elongated domains, with paired regions P5, P4, and P6 aligned along one axis and P8, P3, and P7 along the other. Most of the very highly conserved residues of the group I introns lie in or near P7, but two occur in L4, the internal loop connecting P4 and P5. It is generally believed that such bases are conserved because they are essential for splicing. Mutants were created in a member of each of the two major subclasses of group I introns, in which P5, L4, and the distal portion of P4 were deleted. Splicing activity was still detected in these mutants, albeit substantially weakened; splicing was accurate and occurred by the normal group I mechanism, with addition of a guanosine molecule to the intron. Thus the deleted region, containing two universally conserved bases, is not essential but facilitates splicing. Another reaction characteristic of group I introns, hydrolysis of the 3' splice site, was less severely affected by the deletions. The results are discussed in terms of the prevailing three-dimensional model for the core structure of the group I introns. |

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.
