| Abstract | The smallest open reading frame of hepatitis B virus (HBV) has been designated the X gene and its biological function during HBV infection and replication is not known. Experiments described here demonstrate that expression of the HBV X gene in HepG2 cells containing a plasmid with the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene under control of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) long terminal repeat (LTR) sequence leads to a marked increase in CAT gene transcription as well as expression of the gene product (CAT). The HIV-1 tatIII gene and the HBV X gene together increased HIV-1 LTR-regulated CAT expression above that observed with either gene alone, suggesting a synergistic effect of the X gene and tat. HBV X gene also stimulated expression of the CAT gene under control of the simian virus 40 enhancer and early promoter but not the visna virus LTR or the human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) LTR, indicating that the HBV X gene can transactivate some but not other heterologous viral sequences. Transactivation of the HIV-1 LTR by the HBV X gene varied in different cell lines, suggesting that it may be mediated by a cellular factor(s). |

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.
