| Abstract | The GTPase-activating protein (GAP) has been postulated to function either as a negative regulator or as a possible target protein of Ras in mammalian cells and Xenopus oocytes. Ras must be localized in the plasma membrane of vertebrate cells to function, but GAP is localized in the cytosol. To test whether Ras function depends on a cytosolic factor such as GAP, we microinjected into Xenopus oocytes a form of Saccharomyces cerevisiae RAS1 ([Leu68]RAS1 terminated at residue 185, called [Leu68]RAS1(term.] that lacks the consensus membrane localization site, does not respond to GAP in a GTPase assay, but binds to GAP 100-fold more tightly than [Val12]Ras. [Leu68]RAS1(term.) alone did not stimulate oocyte germinal-vesicle breakdown. Instead, [Leu68]RAS1(term.) was observed to inhibit the action of insulin-like growth factor 1 or microinjected [Val12]Ras but not the action of progesterone as monitored by germinal-vesicle breakdown. Coinjection of purified mammalian GAP with [Leu68]RAS1(term.) reduced the inhibition of [Val12]Ras-stimulated germinal-vesicle breakdown. The results raise the possibility that a cytosolic factor is required for the action of [Val12]Ras in Xenopus oocytes and that this factor is either GAP or another protein with which GAP can compete for binding to [Leu68]RAS1(term.). |

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.
