| Abstract | Cell lines that produce viral gene products and that can support the growth of viral mutants lacking those products have been valuable in the genetic analysis of the transforming regions of several animal viruses. To extend the advantages of such complementing cell systems to regions of the adenoviral genome not directly involved in transformation, we have constructed a cell line that will support the growth of a defective adenoviral deletion mutant, H2dl808, that lacks most of early region 4 (E4). The right-hand terminal adenovirus 5 EcoRI restriction fragment, which contains all of E4, was first inserted into the vector pSV2gpt, and the recombinant plasmid was introduced into Vero cells by calcium phosphate precipitation. Clones containing the hybrid plasmid were selected by their resistance to mycophenolic acid. Five mycophenolic acid-resistant clones were then tested for the ability to support the growth of H2dl808. One of the five lines, W162, permits plaque formation by H2dl808 at an efficiency that is greater than 10(6)-fold higher than that of the parental Vero cells and allows the production of high-titer, helper-free H2dl808 stocks. Thus, W162 cells are permissive for at least one defective E4 mutant. The line carries, as expected, an intact E4, detected by hybridization. Using an H2dl808 lysate produced on W162 cells, we have accurately mapped the 808 deletion. It extends from between BclI and SmaI sites at positions 91.4 and 92.0, respectively, to just beyond a HindIII site at position 97.2 and, therefore, falls entirely within E4. H2dl808 and W162 should be of value in determining the physiological role of E4 in adenoviral infection. |

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.
