| Abstract | A revertant (SPR1) from a high-frequency petite strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been shown by mapping and sequence analysis to have a rearranged mitochondrial genome. In vivo rearrangement has occurred through a subgenomic-recombination pathway involving the initial formation of subgenomic molecules in nascent petite mutants, recombination between these molecules to form an intermediate with direct repeats, and subsequent excision of the resident or symposed duplication to yield a molecule with three novel junctions and a changed gene order. Sequencing of the novel junctions shows that intramolecular recombination in each case occurs by means of G + C-rich short direct repeats of 40-51 base pairs. Mapping and sequence analysis also reveal that the SPR1 mitochondrial genome lacks three sectors of the wild-type molecule of 4.4, 1.7, and 0.5 kilobases. Each of these sectors occurs in nontemplate, base-biased DNA, that is over 90% A + T. Absence of these sectors together with a rearranged gene order does not appear to affect the phenotype of SPR1, as colony morphology and growth rate on a number of different substrates are not detectably different from the wild type. Lack of phenotypic change suggests that mitochondrial gene expression has not been noticeably disrupted in SPR1 despite deletion of the consensus nonomer promoter upstream from the glutamic acid tRNA gene. Dispensability of DNA sectors and the presence of recombinogenic short, direct repeats are mandatory features of the subgenomic-recombination pathway for creating rearrangements in baker's yeast mtDNA. It is proposed that, in other organisms, organelle genomes containing these elements may undergo rearrangement by the same steps. |

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.
