Abstract excerpt
Cells of Escherichia coli increase greatly the synthesis of a small cytoplasmic protein as soon as the cell growth rate falls below the maximal growth rate supported by the medium, regardless of the condition inhibiting growth. The gene, designated uspA (universal stress protein A), encoding this protein has been cloned and mapped, and its nucleotide sequence has been determined (T. Nyström and F.C. Neidhardt,...
