| Abstract | Intermolecular interactions between polypeptide chains play essential roles in the functioning of proteins. We describe here an in vitro assay system for identifying and characterizing such interactions. Such interactions are difficult to study in vivo. We have translated synthetic, nonmethyl-capped RNAs in a cell-free protein-synthesizing system. The translation products were allowed to interact posttranslationally to form protein-protein complexes. The chemical nature of the protein interaction(s) was determined by coimmunoprecipitation of associating proteins, sedimentation through sucrose gradients, followed by NaDodSO4/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis or by nonreducing NaDodSO4/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The system has been utilized to show the self-assembly of monomeric VP1, the major structural protein of simian virus 40, into disulfide-linked pentamers and to show the noncovalent interaction of another structural protein, VP3, with VP1 at low monomer concentrations. Additionally, we show that the carboxyl-terminal 40 amino acids of VP3 are essential and sufficient for its interaction with VP1 in vitro. The in vitro assay system described here provides a method for identifying the domains involved in, and the molecular nature of, protein-protein interactions, which play an important role in such biological phenomena as replication, transcription, translation, transport, ligand binding, and assembly. |

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.
