pubmed:abstractText
A heat sensitive mutant of E. coli has been analyzed. A shift to restrictive temperature leads to an accumulation of ppGpp and pppGpp in both the parental and the mutant strains (both are relA+). The pool of these compounds is shown to decrease with time after the temperature shift in the case of the parental strain, but remains at the same elevated level in the case of the mutant. The temperature shift of the mutant leads to an apparent reduction of stable RNA synthesis; this inhibition can be released by chloroamphenicol or tetracycline. Gross protein synthesis is more or less unaffected at restrictive temperature. In the parental strain little effect is seen on RNA and protein synthesis after the temperature shift. A relA derivative of the mutant does not show the same inhibition of RNA synthesis at high temperature. Sedimentation analysis suggests that mutant 70S ribosome are more stable, when exposed to a lowered Mg2+ concentration, than are 70S ribosomes from the parental strain. In addition, the relative amounts of the two forms of ribosomal protein S6, which can be obtained on DEAE chromatography (Held et al., 1973), are significantly changed in the mutant.
