| Abstract | Two groups of temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants, termed ts B and ts C, have mutations in the major capsid protein of SV40, Vp1. These mutants have virion assembly defects at the nonpermissive temperature, but can complement one another when two mutants, one from each group, coinfect a cell. A third group of mutants, termed ts BC, have related phenotypes, but do not complement other mutants. We found that the mutations fall into two structural and functional classes. All ts C and one ts BC mutations map to the region close to the Ca2+ binding sites, and are predicted to disrupt the insertion of the distal part of the C-terminal invading arm (C-arm) into the receiving clamp. They share a severe defect in assembly at the nonpermissive temperature, with few capsid proteins attached to the viral minichromosome. By contrast, all ts B and most ts BC mutations map to a contiguous region including acceptor sites for the proximal part of the C-arm and intrapentamer contacts. These mutants form assembly intermediates that carry substantial capsid proteins on the minichromosome. Thus, accurate virion assembly is prevented by mutations that disrupt interactions between the receiving pentamer and both the proximal and distal parts of the C-arms, with the latter having a greater effect. The distinct spatial localization and assembly defects of the two classes of mutants provide a rationale for their intracistronic complementation and suggest models of capsid assembly. |

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.
