| Abstract | The genes for the alpha- and beta-subunit apoproteins of allophycocyanin (AP) were isolated from the cyanelle genome of Cyanophora paradoxa and subjected to nucleotide sequence analysis. The AP beta-subunit apoprotein gene was localized to a 7.8-kilobase-pair Pst I restriction fragment from cyanelle DNA by hybridization with a tetradecameric oligonucleotide probe. Sequence analysis using that oligonucleotide and its complement as primers for the dideoxy chain-termination sequencing method confirmed the presence of both AP alpha- and beta-subunit genes on this restriction fragment. Additional oligonucleotide primers were synthesized as sequencing progressed and were used to determine rapidly the nucleotide sequence of a 1336-base-pair region of this cloned fragment. This strategy allowed the sequencing to be completed without a detailed restriction map and without extensive and time-consuming subcloning. The sequenced region contains two open reading frames whose deduced amino acid sequences are 81-85% homologous to cyanobacterial and red algal AP subunits whose amino acid sequences have been determined. The two open reading frames are in the same orientation and are separated by 39 base pairs. AP alpha is 5' to AP beta and both coding sequences are preceded by a polypurine, Shine-Dalgarno-type sequence. Sequences upstream from AP alpha closely resemble the Escherichia coli consensus promoter sequences and also show considerable homology to promoter sequences for several chloroplast-encoded psbA genes. A 56-base-pair palindromic sequence downstream from the AP beta gene could play a role in the termination of transcription or translation. The allophycocyanin apoprotein subunit genes are located on the large single-copy region of the cyanelle genome. |

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.
