Hydrostatic Pressure Effects on Escherichia coli: Site of Inhibition of Protein Synthesis

^a Department of Biology, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, New York 12181

ABSTRACT

Utilizing whole-cell preparations of Escherichia coli, it appears that 670 atm inhibits protein synthesis during elongation, while not affecting aminoacyl transfer ribonucleic acid formation, polysomal integrity, or amino acid permeability.

¹ This paper is taken in part from a thesis to be submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Biology at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
