| Abstract | Ricin, a galactose-binding lectin with potent cytotoxic activity, was used to select a clone of Chinese hamster ovary cells with altered plant lectin-binding properties. The clone (15B) is 80-fold less sensitive to the toxic action of ricin than the parent line. In the absence of ricin, it grows both in monolayer and suspension culture with a normal generation time. Plating efficiency, however, is significantly reduced. Relative to the parent cells, its binding of the Ricinus communis lectins, Phaseolus vulgaris erythroagglutinating phytohemagglutinin, Abrus precatorius phytohemagglutinin, and soybean phytohemagglutinin is less than 7%, while binding of lentil phytohemagglutinin, wheat-germ agglutinin, and mushroom phytohemagglutinin is 17%, 40%, and 109%, respectively. In contrast, its concanavalin A binding is increased by 70%. Consistent with these alterations, crude membrane preparations of the 15B cells were found to contain the same sugars as the parent-cell membranes but in different proportions. The 15B membranes have 28% less sialic acid, 38% less N-acetylglucosamine, 49% less galactose, the same amount of N-acetylgalactosamine, and 53% more mannose than the membranes of the parent cells. |

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.
