| Abstract | Human growth hormone (hGH) and ovine prolactin (oPRL) are both lactogenic as defined by their ability to induce milk-protein synthesis in vitro in the presence of insulin and hydrocortisone. At physiological concentrations, both hGH and oPRL have similar dose-response curves in a mouse mammary gland organ culture system. Binding of 125I-labeled hGH (125I-hGH) to lactogenic receptors is competed by both hGH and oPRL, and the competition curves are nearly superimposable. Moreover, solubilized membrane proteins bound with either 125I-hGH or 125I-labeled oPRL (125I-oPRL) show the same sedimentation pattern on sucrose gradients. However, methylation of membrane phospholipids in the presence of the methyl donor S-adenosyl-L-methionine only increases the binding of 125I-hGH. Binding of either 125I-oPRL or 125I-labeled bovine growth hormone (125I-bGH) was unaffected. Addition of concanavalin A (Con A) to the membranes decreased binding of 125I-oPRL to the lactogenic site by 80%, whereas 125I-hGH binding was decreased by only 40%, with the binding of 125I-bGH unaffected. However, both hGH-and oPRL-bound proteins bind to Con A-Sepharose columns to the same extent. These results suggest that although hGH and oPRL bind to the same lactogenic site with similar affinities and elicit similar biological responses, modification of membranes either by phospholipid methylation or by Con A differentially affects the binding of these two hormones. |

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.
