The genes involved in methionine biosynthesis are scattered throughout the Escherichia coli chromosome and are controlled in a similar but not coordinated manner. The product of the metJ gene and S-adenosylmethionine are involved in the repression of this 'regulon'.

Both a correlation and a lack of correlation between guanosine 5'-diphosphate, 3'-diphosphate (ppGpp) level and RNA accumulation have been reported during temperature shifts of E. coli. We have reexamined these phenomena by measuring the total rate of RNA synthesis. After a temperature upshift (23 d
Most of the essential cellular components, like nucleic acids, lipids and sugars, are phosphorylated. The phosphate equilibrium in Escherichiu coli is regulated by the phosphate (Pi) input from the surrounding medium. Some 90 proteins are synthesized at an increased rate
