The effects of polyamines on the synthesis of various final sigma subunits of RNA polymerase were studied using Western blot analysis. Synthesis of final sigma(28) was stimulated 4.0-fold and that of final sigma(38) was stimulated 2.3-fold by polyamines, whereas synthesis of other final sigma subunits was not influenced by polyamines. Stimulation of final sigma(28) synthesis was due to an increase in the level of cAMP, which occurred through polyamine stimulation of the synthesis of adenylate cyclase at the level of translation. Polyamines were found to increase the translation of adenylate cyclase mRNA by facilitating the UUG codon-dependent initiation. Analysis of RNA secondary structure suggests that exposure of the Shine-Dalgarno sequence of mRNA is a prerequisite for polyamine stimulation of the UUG codon-dependent initiation.
