| Abstract | In this study, acetylcholine receptor-rich postsynaptic membranes from electric tissues of the electric rays Narcine brasiliensis and Torpedo californica are negatively contrasted for thin-section electron microscopy through the use of tannic acid. Both outer (extracellular) and inner (cytoplasmic) membrane surfaces are negatively contrasted, and can be studied together in transverse sections. The hydrophobic portion of the membrane appears as a thin (approximately 2 nm), strongly contrasted band. This band is the only image given by membrane regions which are devoid of acetylcholine receptor. In regions of high receptor density, however, both surfaces of the membrane are seen to bear or be associated with material which extends approximately 6.5 nm beyond the center of the bilayer. The material on the outer surface can be identified with the well-known extracellular portion of the receptor molecule. A major portion of the inner surface image is eliminated by extraction of the membranes at pH 11 to remove peripheral membrane proteins, principally the 43,000 Mr (43K) protein. The images thus suggest a cytoplasmic localization of the 43K protein, with its distribution being coextensive with that of the receptor. They also suggest that the 43K protein extends farther from the cytoplasmic surface than does the receptor. |

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.
