  • Title: Temperature-sensitive relaxed Phenotype in a stringent strain of Escherichia coli.
    Author: Atherly AG.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1973 Jan; 113(1):178-82. PubMed ID: 4569401.
    Abstract:
    A temperature-sensitive elongation factor G (EF-G) mutation carried by a rel strain of Escherichia coli was transferred to a rel(+) strain. The recombinant (AA-10) was found to be temperature-sensitive "relaxed" for ribonucleic acid (RNA) regulation. However, when a temperature-sensitive EF-G is present in a strain temperature-sensitive for valyl-transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetase, this new strain (AA-16) is no longer temperature-sensitive "relaxed" for RNA regulation. In strain AA-10, all tRNAs remain fully charged, and in AA-16 tRNA(val) becomes completely discharged at the nonpermissive growth temperature. Also, synthesis of ppGpp is not observed in strain AA-10 at 42 C but is observed at 42 C in strain AA-16.
