Early changes in the messenger ribonucleic acid concentration of amino acid-starved cells of Escherichia coli are not dependent on the state of the rel gene.
Measurements of the concentration of mRNA in rel(+) and rel(-) strains of Escherichia coli shortly after the imposition of amino acid deprivation indicate that there is a temporary fall in the amount of this fraction relative to the total cellular RNA.
