Abstract excerpt
The stringent response in Corynebacterium glutamicum was investigated. Sets of rrn-cat fusions were constructed in their native chromosomal position to examine the effects of amino acid starvation in a rel(+) strain and a Deltarel mutant defective in (p)ppGpp metabolism. The expression of the six rrn operons in the rel(+) control was stringently regulated and reduced to 79% upon induction of amino acid...
