| Abstract | We have isolated and determined the nucleotide sequence of the yeast FAS3 gene, which encodes acetyl-CoA carboxylase (EC 6.4.1.2). The sequence has an open reading frame of 6711 bases coding for a protein of 2237 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 250,593. The presence of the unique biotin-binding site, Met-Lys-Met, and the known CNBr peptide and COOH-terminal sequences confirmed the nucleotide-derived amino acid sequence. The yeast, chicken, and rat carboxylases have an overall sequence identity of 34%, suggesting that the eukaryotic carboxylase evolved from a single ancestral gene. The amino acid sequences of yeast fatty acid synthase subunits are least homologous with the animal synthase sequences, whereas carboxylase sequences are highly conserved. The sequences of the ATP, HCO3-, and CoA binding sites of the carboxylases are also well conserved (approximately 50% identical). The sequences surrounding the biotin binding site are poorly conserved, suggesting that this sequence may not be critical as long as the biotin is available for carboxylase reactions. On the basis of this sequence identity, we have defined the putative biotin carboxylase and transcarboxylase domains. |

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.
