  • Title: relA gene control of the synthesis of lipid A fatty acyl moieties.
    Author: Spencer A, Muller E, Cronan JE, Gross TA.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1977 Apr; 130(1):114-7. PubMed ID: 323219.
    Abstract:
    The incorporation of [14C]acetate into the fatty acid moieties of lipid A was measured during amino acid starvation of rel+ and relA strains of Escherichia coli K-12. The synthesis of the beta-hydroxymyristate and other fatty acid moieties was inhibited two- to fourfold in rel+ strains, whereas no inhibition was observed in relA strains. The fatty acid compositions of the phospholipids synthesized after amino acid starvation or rel+ and relA strains were also determined.
