| Abstract | We have developed an Escherichia coli plasmid vector for the identification and expression of foreign DNA segments that are open reading frames (ORFs). The 5' end of ompF, an E. coli gene encoding an abundant outer membrane protein, is used to provide a strong, regulated promoter, translation initiation site, and signal sequence for export from the cytoplasm. This sequence is coupled to the lacZ gene of E. coli so that expression of beta-galactosidase requires ompF transcription and translation signals. However, this hybrid gene is LacZ- because lacZ is out of frame with respect to ompF. Restriction enzyme recognition sites are located between ompF and lacZ to allow convenient insertion of DNA fragments. If an insert is an ORF of the correct length, ompF and lacZ become realigned in frame, resulting in a LacZ+ gene that produces a tribrid protein with the translation product of the insert sandwiched between OmpF and beta-galactosidase. The LacZ+ phenotype thus identifies clones containing an expressed ORF. To demonstrate the vector's utility we inserted a fragment from the herpes virus thymidine kinase gene and used the resulting tribrid protein to raise antibodies that precipitate thymidine kinase from herpes virus-infected cells. We also inserted a fragment from the E. coli lexA gene to produce a tribrid protein that is precipitated by antiserum raised with LexA protein. Thus, tribrid fusion proteins can be used to produce or detect antibodies and also to identify the product of a cloned gene. |

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.
