title: Catabolie repression in inhibition of beta-galactosidase synthesis by Escherichia coli in the presence of agents producing translation errors.
abstract: 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.
