Temperature dependence of RNA synthesis parameters in Escherichia coli

Open access

Abstract

For Escherichia coli B/r growing in glucose minimal medium, the following parameters of RNA synthesis remained invariant between 20 and 40 degrees C: RNA polymerase concentration (RNA polymerase/mass), rRNA and tRNA concentration (RNA/mass), RNA polymerase activity (fraction of total RNA polymerase actively engaged in RNA chain elongation), and stable RNA synthesis relative to total RNA synthesis. The following parameters increased 3.4-fold over the same temperature range: rRNA chain elongation rate, guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) concentration, and culture growth rate. Above 40 degrees C, the changes became more complex, and the growth rate began to decrease. The observation that most RNA synthesis parameters are temperature invariant despite the increase of ppGpp suggests that the mechanism of RNA synthesis control by ppGpp, assumed to involve an interaction of RNA polymerase wtih ppGpp, is itself temperature dependent such that, with increasing temperature, higher concentrations of ppGpp are required to affect the RNA polymerase.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
