| Abstract | Promoters in Escherichia coli that are negatively regulated by the CytR repressor are also activated by the cAMP receptor protein (CRP) complexed to cAMP; as a characteristic, these promoters encode tandem binding sites for cAMP-CRP. In one such promoter, deoP2, CytR binds to the region between the tandem CRP binding sites with a relatively low affinity; in the presence of cAMP-CRP, however, the repressor and activator bind cooperatively to the DNA. Here we have investigated this cooperativity by isolating mutants of the CRP protein that abolish CytR regulation without exhibiting a concomitant loss in their ability to activate transcription. Four different, single amino acid substitutions in CRP give rise to this phenotype. These amino acids lie in close proximity on the surface of the CRP tertiary structure in a portion of the protein that is not in contact with the DNA. In vitro analyses of one of the CRP mutants show that it interacts with the DNA in a manner indistinguishable from wild-type CRP, whereas its interaction with CytR is perturbed. These results strongly indicate that cooperative DNA binding of CytR and cAMP-CRP is achieved through protein-protein interactions. |

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.
