Abstract
Acetoin dehydrogenase can be catabolite repressed by numerous sources of carbon. The following results point out that the catabolite repression of this enzyme and the inhibition of sporulation are mediated by the same mechanism: 1. Mutants, able to synthesize acetoin dehydrogenase in the presence of glucose, sporulate in glucose medium at a higher rate than the standard strain. 2. The catabolite repressing effect of a compound and its ability to inhibit sporulation are in a direct relation to each other. 3. The limitation of inorganic phosphate in the growth medium, which is known to favour sporulation, counteracts the catabolite repressing effect of glucose.

Abstract
Culture of a wild-type strain of Escherichia coli in the presence of cyclic AMP leads to an impairment of uracil uptake. Half maximum inhibition of uracil uptake was observed at 1.5 mM cyclic AMP. The effect seems to be specific since no inhibition was found in cultures supplemented with ATP, ADP or 5'-AMP. Similarly the inhibition was not observed in cultures of a mutant deficient in the cyclic AMP receptor protein. The inhibition in uracil uptake, found in bacteria cultured in the presence of cyclic AMP, is not a consequence of a reduction in the growth rate. On the other hand, this inhibition was observed only in cultures containing glucose or pyruvate as carbon source.

Abstract
1. Cyclic AMP was found to stimulate penicillin acylase activity. 2. It also overcame the repression of glucose and restored enzyme synthesis to the non-repressed levels. 3. The conversion of inactive enzyme precursor into active enzyme was not stimulated by cyclic AMP in cells in which protein synthesis was inhibited by chloramphenicol. 4. Cyclic AMP failed to stimulate enzyme production in cells in which messenger RNA synthesis was arrested by rifampicin or inducer removal. 5. Cyclic AMP appears to participate in the regulation of this enzyme at the transcriptional level.

Abstract
We have isolated a mutant of the luminous bacterium Beneckea harveyi, which requires exogenous adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) to synthesize luciferase and emit light. The mutant was pleiotropic, lacking not only the ability to luminesce, but also the capacities to form flagella and the ability to utilize a variety of carbohydrates for growth. All these deficiencies could be corrected by added cyclic AMP. The cyclic AMP-induced de novo synthesis of luciferase was possible only after autoinduction had occurred. The induction time by cyclic AMP ranged between 6 and 10 min at 27 degrees C.

Abstract
The rates of synthesis of beta-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) and the intracellular levels of cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) soon after the addition of glucose or glycerol to exponentially growing cultures of Escherichia coli have been determined. Within 10 s of its addition, glucose, but not glycerol, lowered the apparent initiation frequency of lac messenger ribonucleic acid. The glucose-generated reduction in initiations is identified as catabolite repression by its reversibility with cAMP. The intracellular cAMP levels respond virtually identically to glucose and glycerol additions. Thus, no correlation was observed between the rate of messenger ribonucleic acid initiation and the level of cAMP.

Abstract
Synthesis of penicillinamidohydrolase (penicillin acylase, EC 3.5.1.11) in Escherichia coli is subjected to the absolute catabolite repression by glucose and partial repression by acetate. Both types of catabolite repression of synthesis of the enzyme in Escherichia coli are substantially influenced by cyclic 3',5'-adenosinemonophosphate (cAMP). Growth diauxie in a mixed medium containing glucose and phenylacetic acid serving as carbon and energy sources is overcome by cAMP. cAMP does not influence the basal rate of the enzyme synthesis (without the inducer). Derepression of synthesis of penicillinamidohydrolase by cAMP in a medium with glucose and inducer (phenylacetic acid) is associated with utilization of the inducer, due probably to derepression of other enzymes responsible for degradation of phenylacetic acid. Lactate can serve as a "catabolically neutral" source of carbon suitable for the maximum production of penicillinamidohydrolase. The gratuitous induction of the enzyme synthesis in a medium with lactate as the carbon and energy source and with phenylacetic acid is not influenced by cAMP; however, cAMP overcomes completely the absolute catabolite repression of the enzyme synthesis by glucose.

Abstract
A study of enzymic adaptation under hydrostatic pressure by moderately barotolerant bacteria that can grow at pressure up to about 500 atm revealed that some adaptive processes are relatively insensitive to pressure, whereas others are sufficiently barosensitive to compromise survival capacity in situations requiring adaptation to new substrates under pressure. Examples of the former include adaptation of Escherichia coli to arabinose catabolism for growth and adaptation of Streptococcus faecalis to catabolism of lactose, ribose, or maltose. Examples of the latter include derepression of the lac operon in Escherichia coli and induction of penicillinase synthesis by Bacillus licheniformis. For both these barosensitive systems, pressure had little effect on enzyme levels in constitutive strains or in bacteria that had previously been induced at 1 atm. Moreover, it had no detectable effect on penicillinase secretion. However, pressures of 300 to 400 atm were found to reduce markedly rates and extents of enzyme synthesis by bacteria undergoing derepression or adaptation. This inhibitory effect of pressure was reflected in greater barosensitivity with extended lag and slower growth of initially unadapted Escherichia coli cells inoculated into minimal medium with lactose as sole source of carbon and fuel, and by major reductions in the minimal inhibitory concentrations of penicillin G for unadapted B. licheniformis cells inoculated into complex, antibiotic-containing media. Cyclic adenosine 5'-monophosphate did not reverse pressure inhibition of derepression of the lac operon, and catabolite repression was complete under pressure. However, derepression of the lac operon was more sensitive to pressure at low concentrations of inducer than at high concentrations. Apparent volume changes for derepression were 94 and 60 ml/mol at inducer concentrations of about 0.5 and 5 mM, respectively. Pressure was found not to be inhibitory for uptake of beta-galactosides; in fact, it was somewhat stimulatory. Therefore, results were interpreted in terms of inducer binding and subsequent conversion of an operator-inducer-repressor complex to inactive repressor and operator. Both reactions appeared to result in an increase in volume, the former more so than the latter. We found also that 200 atm was actually stimulatory for growth of Escherichia coli in minimal media, and the bacterium was in a sense barophilic.

Abstract
A membrane fraction obtained from an osmotic lysate of Escherichia coli spheroplasts retains capability to synthesize beta-galactosidase. The system also retains cellular regulatory functions, one of which is known as catabolite repression. Two types of repression of beta-galactosidase synthesis were observed in this membrane system: one was caused by the addition of 2-deoxyglucose or glucose at a low concentration (3 times 10- minus 4 M), and the other was caused by glucose-6-phosphate or glucose at a high concentration (3 times 10- minus 2 M). In the presence of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (10 mM), repression caused by the former was completely reversed, whereas repression by the latter was only partially reversed. Conditions in intact cells causing transient and permanent repression were also investigated. Upon addition of 2-deoxyglucose or glucose at a low concentration to intact cells, only transient repression of beta-galactosidase synthesis was observed. Glucose at a high concentration caused both transient and subsequent permanent repression, and intensity of permanent repression depended upon glucose concentration, whereas duration and intensity of transient repression were independent of glucose concentration. Mutants deficient in phosphoenolpyruvate-phosphotransferase system (Hpr minus and enzyme I minus) showed transient repression but failed to show permanent repression. In mutants deficient in glucose catabolism beyond glucose-6-phosphate, both transient and permanent repression were observed. Correlation between the observations in the membrane system and in intact cells is discussed. The results obtained here strongly suggest that transient repression is caused by glucose itself, and that permanent repression is caused by glucose-6-phosphate of high intracellular levels of glucose.

Abstract
Correlation between beta-galactosidase synthesis and cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) levels in a membrane fraction obtained from disrupted spheroplasts of Escherichia coli was investigated. Repression of beta-galactosidase synthesis in the membrane fraction by glucose-6-phosphate and by 2-deoxyglucose differed in sensitivity to reversal by cAMP. The difference between the two repressions could be due to the fact that glucose-6-phosphate inhibited severely the accumulation of exogenous [3-H]cAMP by the membrane fraction, whereas 2-deoxyglucose had little effect on the accumulation of the nucleotide. On the other hand, a quick decrease in the level of [3-H]cAMP preaccumulated in the membrane fraction resulted from addition of either glucose-6-phosphate or 2-deoxyglucose. Results reported here suggest that repression of beta-galactosidase synthesis is associated with anabrupt decrease in cAMP levels at the intramembranal sites where beta-galactosidase is synthesized, and the major, if not sole, mechanism which leads to instantaneous drop of cAMP level is via the release of cAMP, but not by degradation of the nucleotide since the membrane fraction retained less than 10 percent of cellular cyclic phosphodiesterase and the activity of the enzyme was not affected by repressing sugars.

Abstract
In extracts from rat and calf uterus, the steroid hormone 17 beta-estradiol stimulates the binding of its specific receptor protein to DNA. This interaction appears to be of low affinity (half of the estradiol-activated, 5S receptor bound at 300-400 mug/ml DNA) and nonspecific with respect to DNA base sequence. No binding to double-stranded RNA is observed. These findings are consistent with several in vivo observations. In particular, when the cytoplasmic receptor protein binds hormone, it migrates to the cell nucleus to an extent consistent with its affinity for DNA in vitro, and this in vivo nuclear binding is uniform and nonsaturable in the testable range (to greater than 3 times 10-4 sites per cell). The level of biological response appears to parallel the hormone dose up to these high levels of receptor binding. How are these observations to be reconciled with the prevalent view of steroid receptors as gene control proteins regulating transcription at specific loci on the genome? Our model is based on an analogy with the DNA binding properties of the E. coli lac repressor protein. We believe that the estradiol receptor exerts its effect by binding to a small number of high affinity sites on the genome, while also having a finite low affinity for nonspecific DNA sequences. These nonspecific loci, because of their vast number, completely mask the presence of the high affinity sites. We estimate that up to 10-3 specific sites, with affinities in the range 10- minus 8 minus 10- minus 10 M, could exist without being detected by bulk binding assays currently in use. However, alternative approaches should allow detection of these sites, and some of these are suggested.

Abstract
The defect in protein synthesis that is observed in Escherichia coli after transfer to low temperature was studied. For the enzyme beta-galactosidase, the elongation reactions of transcription and translation can take place slowly but normally at 5 C. The time necessary to complete the coupled synthesis of the beta-galactosidase messenger ribonucleic acid and polypeptide chain was found to be about 80 min at 5 C. From this result and from the known length of the beta-galactosidase monomer, it is possible to calculate that at 5 C one amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain every 4 s. The initiation of transcription of the beta-galactosidase messenger is inhibited after transfer to 5 C. This fact alone, however, cannot account for all of the phenomena observed at 5 C, because a given amount of messenger yields less enzyme at 5 C than it does at 37 C. Furthermore, in cells induced for short periods at 37 C, the capacity to synthesize beta-galactosidase after transfer to 5 C was found to accumulate linearily with the square of the time of induction. Two alternative models could account for these data. If all ribosomes that initiate translation at 37 C yield complete beta-galactosidase polypeptide chains at 5 C, then an inhibition of translation initiation after transfer to 5 C must be invoked to explain the results. If, on the other hand, a substantial portion of the ribosomes that initiate translation at 37 C do not yield complete beta-galactosidase polypeptides at 5 C, then intracistronic polarity could account for the data, and there is no need to invoke an inhibition of translation initiation at 5 C.

Abstract
The formation of fruiting bodies in the monokaryotic fis(c) strain and a dikaryon of Coprinus macrorhizus was inhibited by growth in high-glucose media. In high-glucose media the characteristic burst of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) accumulation during fruiting-body formation was absent. Enzymatic activity assays revealed that mycelia grown in high-glucose media contained relatively lower amounts of adenylate cyclase and cAMP-phosphodiesterase than mycelia grown in low-glucose media. The synthesis of inducible d-serine deaminase and tryptophanase was repressed in high-glucose media. A mutant (gluR) in which the glucose repression of fruiting-body formation is affected was isolated by selection in high-glucose media. The mutation caused the cAMP levels to be no longer affected by glucose and affected ability to synthesize the inducible d-serine deaminase and tryptophanase. The gluR mutant was partially dominant in dikaryons. It is suggested that cAMP may play important roles in inducing fruiting bodies and in controlling inducible enzyme synthesis in C. macrorhizus.

Abstract
Cyclic adenosine 3', 5'-monophosphate (AMP) stimulates maltodextrin phosphorylase synthesis in Escherichia coli cells induced with maltose. A maximal effect occurs at 2 to 3 mM cyclic AMP. The action of cyclic AMP is specific, inasmuch as adenosine triphosphate, 3'-AMP, 5'-AMP, adenosine, and dibutyryl cyclic AMP are inactive. Glucose, alpha-methyl glucoside, 2-deoxyglucose, and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate repress maltodextrin phosphorylase synthesis. This repression is reversed by cyclic AMP. The action of cyclic AMP appears to be at the transcriptional level, since cyclic AMP fails to stimulate phosphorylase production in induced cells in which messenger ribonucleic acid synthesis has been arrested by rifampin or by inducer removal. The two other enzymes involved in the metabolism of maltose, amylomaltase and maltose permease, are also induced in this strain of E. coli and affected by glucose and cyclic AMP in a manner similar to phosphorylase.

Studies were made of the synthesis of beta-galactosidase by Escherichia coli in the presence of 5-fluorouracil, streptomycin, and subinhibitory concentrations of chloramphenicol. The preferential inhibition of beta-galactosidase synthesis observed in the presence of the above drugs was found to be caused by catabolite repression.

Abstract
The effect of glucose on alpha toxin production was studied in the Wood 46 strain of Staphylococcus aureus. Optimal toxin production occurred when 0.2% glucose was present in the medium. Omission of glucose gave lower yields of toxin, and concentrations of 0.5% and higher severely depressed toxin formation. Glucose affected the initiation of alpha toxin synthesis in growing cultures. As the glucose concentration increased, the time lag prior to the onset of toxin production also increased, and maximal rates of synthesis were not obtained until essentially all the glucose had been exhausted from the medium. The addition of glucose to toxin-producing cultures caused a temporary, almost complete repression of toxin formation which was not due to pH changes in the culture. The synthesis of most extracellular proteins was not inhibited during the period of repression. After recovery, toxin was produced at rates equal to those of untreated control cultures. The kinetics of toxin repression and the observation that the glucose analogues, 2-deoxy-d-glucose and alpha-methyl-glucoside, as well as other carbon sources, inhibit toxin production suggest that transient repression is responsible for the inhibition of toxin formation. No evidence for a regulatory role of adenosine 3', 5'-cyclc monophosphate in alpha toxin production was obtained.

Abstract
The effect of cAMP on the intracellular levels of five enzymes concerned with the interconversion of glutamate and glutamine in E. coli has been examined. Cyclic AMP added to the culture medium increases the levels of glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.4) and glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2); it decreases the levels of glutamate synthase (EC 1.4.1.X), and glutaminase A (EC 3.5.1.2). Cyclic AMP did not affect the level of glutaminase B (EC 3.5.1.2). These alterations in enzyme levels by cAMP require cyclic AMP receptor protein, since the levels of these enzymes were unchanged by cAMP in a mutant lacking this receptor. Chloramphenicol also abolished the effects of cAMP, a result that implies protein synthesis is necessary for these changes in enzyme levels to occur. The reciprocal effects of cAMP on the levels of these enzymes may play an important role in the cellular regulation of nitrogen metabolism.

Abstract
Recovery from the inhibitory effect of ultraviolet irradiation on the induced synthesis of beta-galactosidase was studied in Escherichia coli B/r. When irradiated cells (520 ergs/mm(2) at 254 nm) were induced and incubated in minimal medium supplemented with Casamino Acids (conditions of catabolite repression), the ability to form enzyme was greatly reduced for about 100 min and then recovery began. The inhibition observed immediately after ultraviolet irradiation was partially reversed by cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) or by photoreactivation treatment. Inhibition was reduced if the cells were given cold treatment (5 C) before or during irradiation; the kinetics of induced enzyme formation in each case were similar to those of irradiated cells receiving cyclic AMP. These kinetics suggest that the cold treatments, like cyclic AMP, cause the release of the beta-galactosidase-synthesizing system from catabolite repression. When irradiated cells were incubated for various times before cyclic AMP or photoreactivation treatment, some reversal of the inhibition of induced enzyme formation was obtained, but by 100 min the treatments were ineffective. Because 100 min was also the time at which dark recovery of enzyme formation began, the recovery process was interpreted to be the result of completion of DNA repair, which, in turn, released the beta-galactosidase-synthesizing system from catabolite repression.
