Using ColE1-TnA hybrid plasmid RSF2124 as the cloning vector, we constructed a hybrid plasmid, pNO1001, which carried seven ribosomal protein (r-protein) genes in the spc operon together with their promoter. The plasmid also carried three r-protein genes which precede the spc operon, but did not carry the bacterial promoter for these genes. Expression of r-protein genes carried by pNO1001 was studied by measuring messenger ribonucleic acid and r-protein synthesis in cells carrying the plasmid. It was found that the messenger ribonucleic acid for all the promoter-distal r-protein genes was synthesized in large excess relative to messenger ribonucleic acid from other chromosomal r-protein genes which are not carried by the plasmid. However, only the two promoter-proximal r-proteins, L14 and L24, were markedly overproduced. The absence of large gene dosage effects on the synthesis of other distal proteins appeared to be due, at least in part, to preferential inactivation and/or degradation of the distal message which codes for these proteins; in addition, some preferential inhibition of translation of the distal message might also have been involved. Overproduced L14 and L24 were found to be degraded in recA+ strains at both 30 and 42 degrees C; in recA strains, the degradation took place at 42 degrees C but was very slow or absent at 30 degrees C. The recA strains carrying pNO1001 failed to form colonies at 30 degrees C, presumably because of overaccumulation of r-proteins. The results suggest that degradation of excess r-proteins is an important physiological process.
