Abstract excerpt
Ochi (Agric. Biol. Chem. 51:829-835, 1987) has isolated a relaxed mutant of Streptomyces antibioticus, designated relC49, relC49 accumulates significantly lower levels of ppGpp than the parent stain, IMRU3720. At its maximum, the ppGpp level in relC49 was only one-fourth that observed in strain IMRU3720. Interestingly, a burst of ppGpp synthesis between 18 and 22 h of growth in IMRU3720 coincided with the onset...
