| Abstract | The neu protooncogene (also called c-erbB2 and HER-2) undergoes oncogenic activation through a single mutation. The product of the protooncogene, p185neu, probably functions as a receptor for a peptide growth factor. To circumvent the absence of a well-characterized ligand, I generated ligand-mimicking monoclonal antibodies directed to the presumed receptor. These antibodies stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of p185neu in living cells and also accelerated the rate of endocytosis and degradation of p185neu. A monovalent Fab fragment of such an antibody was ineffective, suggesting a role for receptor dimerization in signal transduction. Unlike the product of the protooncogene, the transforming mutant was not affected by the ligand-like antibodies. However, it undergoes constitutively high phosphorylation on tyrosine residues in living cells, and its turnover rate is remarkably rapid. Nevertheless, the pattern of phosphorylation of the mutant protein is similar to the one exhibited by an antibody-stimulated p185neu, suggesting that the mutation mimics activation by the antibody. These results suggest that the kinase of p185neu is under allosteric control that may involve ligand-induced dimerization of receptors. This mechanism is deregulated in the oncogenic mutant, which is functionally equivalent to ligand-stimulated receptor. |

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.
