| Abstract | Depolymerization products of purified microtubules from porcine brain were examined by sedimentation analysis and electron microscopy. The complete depolymerization mixture exhibited 36S and 6S components in concentration-dependent equilibrium, whether depolymerization was caused by low temperature or by calcium ion. These components were recognized by electron microscopy as spirals and rings, and small particles. Agarose column chromatography yielded two major fractions, a leading one comprising mostly 36S and some 6S material and a trailing one of solely 6S material. The latter had high specific colchicine-binding activity and no tendency to polymerize. For the leading peak material these properties were the converse. It is proposed that tubulin molecules (of mass 110,000 daltons) exist in two states, here called X and Y, with those of the X-state equivalent to the material found predominantly in the trailing fraction, and those of the Y-state equated with the material in the leading fraction. Participation of tubulin molecules in microtubule assembly and disassembly is discussed, based on the assumption that those of both states have longitudinal and lateral binding domains whose strengths differentially depend upon temperature and calcium-ion concentration. |

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.
