| Abstract | Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) gene transcripts have been identified in the hypothalamus, brainstem, and cerebral cortex of the rat. The hypothalamic transcripts are similar in overall size (approximately 1100 nucleotides), 5' terminus, 3' terminus, and nucleotide sequence to their counterparts synthesized in the cardiac atria. The 5' terminus of the hypothalamic transcripts, determined by both S1 nuclease and primer-extension analysis, was located approximately 20 nucleotides downstream from the TATAAAA sequence that is thought to dictate the start of transcription. Similar 5' termini were identified in RNA from the brainstem and cerebral cortex. The 3' termini of the hypothalamic transcripts mapped approximately 10 nucleotides downstream from each of two successive AATAAA sequences that are believed to provide the cleavage signal required for subsequent polyadenylylation. The same 3' termini were present in atrial, ventricular, lung, and pituitary RNA. To confirm the identity of the hypothalamic gene transcript, a partial-length cDNA clone encoding ANF was isolated from a hypothalamic cDNA library and sequenced. This hypothalamic clone was identical to an analogous atrial cDNA clone at each of its 612 nucleotide positions. These findings suggest that ANF peptides, previously identified in specific loci of the hypothalamus and pontine tegmentum, are synthesized locally in these tissues and support a role for this peptide in the central regulation of cardiovascular physiology. |

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.
