| Abstract | Protein synthesis initiation in reticulocyte lysates is inhibited by heme deficiency, low levels of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), oxidized glutathione (GSSG), or the purified kinase (HRI) that acts on the alpha polypeptide of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2alpha). The phosphoprotein profiles produced in lysates in response to these various conditions have been monitored directly in lysates after labeling for brief periods with pulses of [gamma-(32)P]ATP. The [(32)P]phosphoprotein profiles were analyzed by electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide slab gels under conditions in which the HRI and eIF-2alpha polypeptides were clearly distinguished. All four modes of inhibition produced a rapid phosphorylation of eIF-2alpha compared to control lysates, which displayed little or no phosphorylation of eIF-2alpha. In heme-deficient lysates, phosphorylation of eIF-2alpha occurred rapidly both before and after the shut-off of protein synthesis; the delayed addition of hemin to these lysates resulted in a decrease in the phosphorylation of eIF-2alpha and the subsequent restoration of protein synthesis. These data suggest that rapid turnover of phosphate occurs at the site(s) of eIF-2alpha phosphorylation. In lysates inhibited by heme deficiency, GSSG, or added HRI, the phosphorylation of eIF-2alpha was accompanied by the rapid in situ phosphorylation of HRI. The inhibition of initiation induced by dsRNA was accompanied by the phosphorylation of eIF-2alpha and a 67,000-dalton polypeptide but not HRI. These observations in situ indicate that (i) the phosphorylation of eIF-2alpha is the critical event in these inhibitions of protein chain initiation, and (ii) the phosphorylation of HRI is associated with its activation in heme deficiency. |

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.
