| Abstract | The chemotactic peptide N-formyl-Nle-Leu-Phe-Nle-Tyr(125I)-Lys (formyl 125I-peptide) binds in a saturable manner to human promyelocytic leukemia cells (HL-60) grown in suspension culture. The binding is of high affinity (50% binding at 0.4--0.75 nM), is rapid (half-time at 22 degrees C = 10 min), is enhanced by divalent cations, but is poorly reversible. These characteristics are similar to those of the formyl peptide chemotactic receptor on human peripheral blood neutrophils. The relative potencies of a series of synthetic peptides in inhibiting binding to the HL-60 cell receptor correlate closely with their potencies in inhibiting binding to the peripheral neutrophil receptor. However, whereas all peripheral human neutrophils display the receptor, only a subpopulation of the cultured cells will bind and internalize tetramethylrhodamine-labeled N-formyl-Nle-Leu-Phe-Nle-Tyr-Lys. This subpopulation is distinct from the rest of the culture, displays morphological characteristics typical of well-differentiated promyelocytes, and appears to account for all of the measured fromyl 125I-peptide binding. Binding of both 125I-labeled and tetramethylrhodamine-labeled formyl peptide increases in response to treatment of the culture with polar compounds that induce cell differentiation. Cells from the differentiated culture demonstrate a chemotactic response to N-formyl-Nle-Leu-Phe-Nle-Tyr-Lys, whereas cells from the undifferentiated culture do not. |

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.
