discriminatory ribosome rebinding of isolated regions of protein synthesis initiation from the ribonucleic acid of bacteriophage r17.to determine whether bacterial ribosomes recognize a distinguishing feature in the immediate vicinity of actual initiator codons or are directed to these sites through involvement of other portion(s) of the mrna molecule, the interaction between ribosomes and defined (32)p-labeled initiator fragments from r17 rna was studied. when incubated with mixtures of the three sites, ribosomes from bacillus stearothermophilus (which initiate only the a protein on intact phage rna) are able to select out t ...19734582190

a study of the thermal stability of ribosomes and biologically active subribosomal particles.1. the ability of escherichia coli ribosomes to function in poly(u)-directed protein synthesis was measured at elevated temperatures by using thermostable supernatant factors from bacillus stearothermophilus. the amount of polyphenylalanine synthesized at 55 degrees c was about the same as at 37 degrees c, but the rate of synthesis was increased approximately fivefold. at 60 degrees c the activity of the ribosomes was halved. 2. e. coli ribosomes can sustain the loss of approx. 10% of the double ...19734584137

metabolism of phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and cardiolipin of bacillus stearothermophilus.the total phospholipid content of bacillus stearothermophilus was constant during exponential growth, increased during the transition from the exponential to stationary phase of growth, and then slowly increased during the stationary phase. the first increase was a result of an increase in phosphatidylethanolamine; the second was a result of an increase in cardiolipin. cessation of aeration of an exponentially growing culture or suspension in a nongrowth medium resulted in an immediate reduction ...19734712568

the function of the two subunits of thermophilic aminopeptidase i.the thermophilic high-molecular-weight aminopeptidase i (ec 3.4.11.1) from bacillus stearothermophilus is composed of 12 subunits of two different types (alpha,beta) which can combine in various ratios. only one type of subunit (alpha) is needed for the degradation of neutral peptides, but dipeptides having amino-terminal aspartic or gultamic acid are substantially hydrolyzed only by enzyme containing the other subunit (beta) as well. asp-gly inhibits the enzymatic hydrolysis of glutamic acid 1- ...19734521203
