| Abstract | Radioiodinated ubiquitin was introduced into HeLa cells by erythrocyte- mediated microinjection. Subsequent electrophoretic analyses revealed that the injected ubiquitin molecules were rapidly conjugated to HeLa proteins. At equilibrium, 10% of the injected ubiquitin was conjugated to histones and 40% was distributed among conjugates of higher molecular weight. Although the remaining ubiquitin molecules appeared to be unconjugated, the free pool of ubiquitin decreased by one-third and additional conjugates were present when electrophoresis was performed at low temperature under nonreducing conditions. Molecular weights of these labile conjugates suggest that they are ubiquitin adducts in thiolester linkage to activating enzymes. Despite the fairly rapid degradation of injected ubiquitin (t1/2 approximately 10-20 h), the size distribution of ubiquitin conjugates within interphase HeLa cells remained constant for at least 24 h after injection. The intracellular locations of ubiquitin and ubiquitin conjugates were determined by autoradiography, by differential sedimentation of subcellular fractions in sucrose, and by extraction of injected cells with buffer containing Triton X-100. Free ubiquitin was found mostly in the cytosolic or Triton X-100-soluble fractions. As expected, histone conjugates were located predominately in the nuclear fraction and exclusively in the Triton X-100-insoluble fraction. Although high molecular weight conjugates were enriched in the Triton X-100-insoluble fraction, their size distribution was similar to that of soluble conjugates. When injected HeLa cells were exposed to cycloheximide to inhibit protein synthesis, the size distribution of ubiquitin conjugates was similar to that found in untreated cells. Moreover, high molecular weight conjugates decreased less than 20% after inhibition of protein synthesis. These results indicate that most ubiquitin conjugates are not newly synthesized proteins which have been marked for destruction. |

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.
