A mutant of Escherichia coli has been isolated that has a temperature-sensitive mutation that results in specific loss of ribosomal ribonucleic acid (RNA) synthesis and some reduction in messenger RNA synthesis. When the strain was grown in glucose medium at a restrictive temperature, RNA accumulation ceased, but both messenger RNA and protein synthesis continued for an extended time. Because carbon metabolism was slowed drastically when strain AA-157 was placed at the restrictive temperature, this phenotype can be compared with carbon depletion conditions present during diauxic lag. However, the phenotype of mutant AA-157 differs from shift-down conditions in that guanosine-3',5'-tetraphosphate levels are unaffected; therefore, a different site is affected. This mutant strain (AA-157) thus shows many characteristics similar to an aldolase mutant previously reported (Böck and Neidhardt, 1966). However, the mutation occurred in a different position on the E. coli genetic map, and furthermore, aldolase was not temperature sensitive in strain AA-157. In this paper we present a study of macromolecular biosynthesis in this mutant.
