| Abstract | Murine CD44 is a cell surface glycoprotein that is thought to play a role in leukocyte migration. We studied the structure and expression of CD44 on two populations of macrophages: those that reside in the peritoneum of unprimed mice, and those that have been elicited to migrate into the peritoneum by the intraperitoneal injection of agents that cause localized inflammatory responses. Our studies reveal structural variations in both the extracellular and intracellular domains of CD44 expressed by these two macrophage populations. The form of CD44 in elicited macrophages has an apparent molecular mass that is approximately 5 kD greater and more heterogenous than that in resident macrophages. This structural changes is posttranslational, extracellular, and apparently reflects increases in N-linked glycosylation. It is also specific for CD44 and does not occur with several other glycoproteins examined. This novel regulation of glycosylation may play an important role in the ability of CD44 to bind to different substrates, particularly lectin-like ligands. In addition, we demonstrate that CD44 in resident macrophages is divided into two pools, one containing nonphosphorylated, cytoskeletally associated CD44, and one containing phosphorylated, unassociated CD44. In contrast, CD44 on the surface of elicited macrophages does not associate with the cytoskeleton. The attachment of CD44 to the cytoskeleton involves either direct or indirect association with actin. The regulated association of CD44 with the cytoskeleton suggests that it may influence or be influenced by macrophage mobility. |

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.
