| Abstract | Cloned DNA templates were used to direct the transcription of early and late simian virus 40 (SV40) genes by a cell-free RNA-synthesizing system. Transcription by RNA polymerase II was sensitive to low levels of alpha-amanitin and completely dependent on exogenously added DNA template. RNA products of discrete lengths were efficiently synthesized when transcription was directed by DNA restriction fragments containing promoter sequences for either early or late genes of SV40. Addition of the D2 tumor antigen to the template DNA inhibited transcription originating from the SV40 early promoter. In contrast, the D2 protein had little or no effect on the transcription from SV40 or adenovirus 2 (Ad2) late promoter sequences. When a mixture of cloned DNA containing SV40 early promoter and Ad2 late promoter was used to direct RNA synthesis, the D2 protein specifically inhibited the synthesis of SV40 early genes but not that of Ad2 late sequences. The D2 DNA binding protein also had no effect on the transcription directed by SV40 mutant templates that contain an intact early promoter sequence but lack specific tumor-antigen binding sites. We have confirmed that, under the conditions of the transcription assay, the D2 protein binds and interacts specifically with its recognition sites on wild-type template DNAs but fails to bind to mutant or Ad2 DNA templates that lack sequences containing SV40 tumor-antigen binding sites. These findings provide evidence that a direct interaction between tumor antigen and its specific binding sites on DNA is the mechanism by which the SV40 A gene autoregulates its transcription. |

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.
