| Abstract | Mutations in the lon (capR) gene result in multiple phenotypes, one of which is the failure to degrade abnormal and normal proteins (Deg-). Previous work with partially purified preparations showed that the lon (capR) gene product is a 94,000-dalton polypeptide with an affinity for nucleic acids. The lon (capR) protein has now been highly purified and is demonstrated to have an ATP-dependent protease activity. The enzyme hydrolyzed 3H-labeled alpha-casein into trichloroacetic acid-soluble forms in Tris buffer containing Mg2+ and ATP. The reaction has a pH optimum of 8.5 and ATP was the preferred nucleotide. CTP and UTP could substitute for ATP (75% and 67%, respectively) but GTP, ADP, AMP, cyclic AMP, and PPi could not. Proteolysis by the lon (capR) protein required ATP hydrolysis. Nonhydrolyzable analogs of ATP and CTP did not promote casein cleavage. When low concentrations of ATP were used, proteolysis stopped as the ATP pool was depleted. Casein stimulated lon (capR) ATPase activity, and the products were ADP and inorganic phosphate in equimolar amounts. No protein kinase activity was detected. The DNA-binding activity, present in partially pure preparations, was retained in the purified protein. The gene product purified from a lon nonsense mutant that exhibits the Deg- phenotype (capR9), lacked both the ATP-dependent protease and ATPase activities, though it retained DNA-binding activity. Absence of an ATP-dependent protease activity could account for many of the pleiotropic effects observed in lon mutants. |

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.
