Nucleoids were isolated from Escherichia coli B/r cells in steady-stage growth at different rates. The number of RNA chains growing on each nucleoid was estimated from the amount and size of RNAs synthesized by endogenous RNA polymerase. This figure represents the number of RNA polymerase molecules

The effect of amino acid-starvation on the transcription in vitro of overall RNA and ribosomal RNA was investigated using nucleoids prepared from the exponentially growing and the amino acid-starved cells of rel+ and rel- strains of Escherichia coli. In this system, the synthesis of RNA is exclusive
The ribosomal RNA synthesis in a cell-free system containing the nucleoids and the cytoplasmic fraction prepared from Escherichia coli cells has been investigated. The addition of the "4S" fraction from the cytoplasm to the isolated nucleoids induces RNA synthesis by a new chain initiation. In this
Ribosomal RNA synthesis has been investigated in an in vitro system consisting of purified E. coli RNA polymerase and phi 80d3 DNA carrying rrnC operon. rRNA comprises about 25% of the total RNA synthesized in this system under optimal conditions and is stimulated by a crude protein fraction prepare
Escherichia coli has multiple forms of ribosomal protein S6, differing in number of glutamyl resideus at the C-terminal end. Three forms are revealed when crude cell extracts are fractionated by a two-dimensional gel electrophoresis technique. Pulse-chase experiments show that the shortest and most
Transcription of Escherichia coli ribosomal DNA introduced into Proteus mirabilis on F14 is described. We have developed an assay for E. coli coded ribosomal RNA involving fingerprinting of ribonuclease T1 digests of RNA isolated from ribosomal subunits. Sequence differences in the ribosomal RNA of
