Abstract excerpt
When the Bacillus subtilis dnaB37 mutant, defective in initiation, is returned to permissive temperature after growth at 45 degrees C, DNA replication is synchronized. Under these conditions, we have shown previously that DNA replication is inhibited when the Stringent Response is induced by the amino acid analogue, arginine hydroxamate. We have now shown, using DNA-DNA hybridization analysis, that substantial...
