HARDON, M. J., and L. J. ALBRIGHT. 1974. Hydrostatic pressure effects on several stages of protein synthesis in Eschericl~ia coli. Can. J. Microbiol. 20: 359-365. Hydrostatic pressure has been shown to inhibit protein synthesis in Escherichia coli by inhibiting amino acid activation and polypeptide synthesis in cell-free systems. Pressure may decrease translational ambiguity by suppressing any non-specific activity of phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase and by preferentially decreasing the stability of leucyl-tRNA.HARDON, M. J., et L. J. ALBRIGHT. 1974. Hydrostatic pressure effects on several stages of protein synthesis in Escherichia coli. Can. J. Microbiol. 20: 359-365. On a demontrd que la pression hydrostatique inhibe la synthese des proteines chez Eschwichia coli en inhibant I'activation des acides amines et la synthese des polypeptides dans des systemes acellulaires. La pression peut diminuer toute ambiguite dans la traduction en supprimant toute activite non specifique de la phCnyIalany1-tARN synthbtase et en diminuant de f a~o n preferentielle la stabilite de la leucyl-tARN.[Traduit par le journal]
