ROLES OF THE RELA+ GENE AND OF 4‐THIOURIDINE IN NEAR‐ULTRAVIOLET (334 nm) RADIATION INHIBITION OF INDUCED SYNTHESIS OF TRYPTOPHANASE IN ESCHERICHIA COLI B/r

Abstract: Near-ultraviolet radiation (near UV; 300-380 nm) is known to inhibit the induced synthesis of tryptophanase by tryptophan in Escherichia coli, showing an action spectrum similar to that for near-UV-induced growth delay. The present work shows that a relA mutant of E. coli B/r exhibits 50% as much monochromatic near-UV (334 nm) inhibition of tryptophanase induction as the wild type, and tht a mutant lacking 4-thiouridine, an unusual nucleoside in tRNA, exhibits greater than 10% as much inhibition of tryptophana… Show more
