Abstract excerpt
The aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are inactivated in extracts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae preferentially to other yeast enzymes and the rate of inactivation greatly increases in extracts of nitrogen-starved cells. The intensity of inactivation varies for the different synthetases. Under conditions in which more than 80 per cent of the leucyl and isoleucyl-tRNA synthetases are inactivated, the activities of the...
