| Abstract | By in vitro translation, we have identified the mRNA species that codes for a novel actin polypeptide (Ax-actin) in the chemically transformed human fibroblast line HuT-14. The relatedness of the coding sequences of the Ax- and beta-actin genes is indicated by our finding that pcDd actin ITL-I DNA, a recombinant plasmid DNA that contains a DNA sequence complementary to actin mRNA of Dictyostelium discoideum, hybridizes both the Ax-actin mRNA and the beta-actin mRNA but not the gamma-actin mRNA. In contrast, pcHa-1 DNA, a recombinant plasmid constructed by cloning a DNA sequence complementary to human actin mRNA from HuT-14 cells into pBR322, hybridized to all three mRNA species. In addition, no difference was observed between Ax- and beta-actin mRNAs when their molecular size was determined either by sucrose density gradient sedimentation or by methyl mercury agarose gel electrophoresis. Southern blot transfer of radioactive pcDd actin DNA to restriction endonuclease-digested Hut-14 DNA produced only a single hybrid band (a 6-kilobase fragment); the pcHa-1 DNA probe detected one additional band (a 3-kilobase fragment). These results suggest that HuT-14 cells contain only one copy per haploid genome for Ax- or beta-actin. When considered together with recent determination of the entire amino acid sequences of Ax- and beta-actin, our findings indicate that Ax-actin is the product of a mutated beta-actin gene and are evidence for the occurrence of a mutation in a chemically transformed cell. |

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.
