| Abstract | Variants resistant to bromodeoxyuridine (BrdUrd) and deficient in thymidine kinase (ATP:thymidine 5'-phosphotransferase; EC 2.7.1.21) have been obtained from V79 Chinese hamster cells by a combination of spontaneous and drug-induced change. Initial mutations take place in wild-type populations as a facilitating step to give partially resistant clones that can be isolated by one-step selection in BrdUrd. When these tolerant populations are maintained for extended periods in BrdUrd-containing medium, a gradual phenotypic transition occurs in which BrdUrd appears to act as an inductive as well as selective agent. Thymidine kinase activity declines logarithmically over an interval of 8-10 weeks as the growth rate rises and the cells become completely resistant to BrdUrd. Relative plating efficiency in hypoxanthine/aminopterin/thymidine medium also decreases, but the decrease is not coordinate with shifts in thymidine kinase activity. The potential for colony formation in hypoxanthine/aminopterin/thymidine continues to decrease exponentially for at least 18 weeks after thymidine kinase deficiency and complete resistance to BrdUrd have been established. These phenotypic modifications are continuous or multistep in character; by clonal analysis they are found to occur in most, if not all, cells maintained in the presence of BrdUrd. Populations in transition thus come to be complex mosaics of different phenotypes that are comparatively stable if isolated in drug-free medium. The progressive evolution of cells resistant to BrdUrd will require new models for an underlying explanation. |

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.
