| Abstract | To explore the basis for the template specificities of the bacteriophage T3 and T7 RNA polymerases (EC 2.7.7.6), we determined the nucleotide sequences of six promoters recognized by the T3 RNA polymerase and compared them with the previously determined promoter sequences recognized by the bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase. Recombinant plasmids containing random Hpa II and Taq I fragments of T3 DNA were screened for T3 promoter activity in vitro in a transcription assay using purified T3 RNA polymerase. Five promoters for the T3 RNA polymerase were identified in this manner and their sequences were determined; the sequence of an additional promoter was determined directly from a genomic DNA fragment. In five of the T3 promoters an identical 16-base-pair sequence (A-C-C-C-T-C-A-C-T-A-A-A-G-G-G-A) extends from -12 to +4 (initiation occurring with GTP at +1); this sequence is preceded by a 6-base-pair A + T region. The remaining promoter contains an inserted C at position -1 and an A at the +1 position. The sequence of the 5' end of the RNA transcript from the latter promoter confirms that transcription is initiated with ATP at the +1 position. Previously, late T3 or T7 transcripts had not been found to initiate with ATP. The highly conserved T3 promoter sequence was compared to the T7 promoter consensus sequence. The fundamental difference between the two kinds of phage promoters is the occurrence of G-A at positions -11 and -10 in the T7 promoter, whereas there is a single C at position -10 in the T3 promoter. |

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.
