Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells respond to a heat shock by temporarily slowing the synthesis of ribosomal proteins (C. Gorenstein and J. R. Warner, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 73:1574-1551, 1976). When cultures growing oxidatively on ethanol as the sole carbon source were shifted from 23 to 36 degrees C, the synthesis of ribosomal proteins was coordinately inhibited twice as rapidly and 45% more severely than in comparable cultures growing fermentatively on glucose. Within 15 min, the relative rates of synthesis of at least 30 ribosomal proteins declined to less than one-sixth their initial values, whereas the overall rate of protein synthesis increased at least threefold. We suggest that this is due primarily to controls at the level of synthesis of messenger ribonucleic acid for ribosomal proteins but may also involve changes in messenger ribonucleic acid stability. In contrast, a nutritional shift-up causes a stimulation of the synthesis of ribosomal proteins. Experiments designed to determine the hierarchy of stimuli affecting the synthesis of these proteins demonstrated that temperature shock was dominant to glucose stimulation. When a culture growing on ethanol was shifted from 23 to 36 degrees C and glucose was added shortly afterward, the decline in ribosomal protein synthesis continued unabated. However, in wild-type cells ribosomal protein synthesis began to recover within 15 min. In mutants temperature sensitive for ribosome synthesis, e.g., rna2, there was no recovery in the synthesis of most ribosomal proteins, suggesting that the product of rna2 is essential for the production of these proteins under all vegetative conditions.

Triticale var. Lasko embryos, isolated from grain gathered at milk ripeness, the beginning of wax ripeness and at full ripeness, were allowed to germinate for 48 h on agar with glucose. The highest incorporation of tritiated adenosine into polyribosomal RNA during germination was found in the ribosome fractions from embryos of grain gathered at full ripeness, lower incorporation was in preparations from embryos of milk ripe grain and the lowest in preparations from embryos of wax ripe grain. Different tendencies were observed in respect to the synthesis of ribosomal proteins. The highest incorporation of <sup>14</sup>C-amino acids into ribosomal proteins was found in preparations of ribosome fractions from embryos of milk ripe grain, lower in preparations of embryos from fully ripe grain, the lowest in preparations of embryos from wax ripe grain. ABA (10<sup>-4</sup> M) completely inhibited the external symptoms of germination of immature embryos, while its inhibition of the synthesis of polyribosomal RNA and ribosomal proteins was greater the more mature the embryos that were germinated. The greatest stimulation of precocious germination by exogenous BA and GA<sub>3</sub> was demonstrated in the least mature embryos isolated from milk ripe grain. Under the influence of both stimulators, an increase of the proportion of polyribosomes in the total ribosome fraction occurred in this sample, as did a rise in the intensity of ribosomal protein synthesis. The incorporation of <sup>3</sup>H-adenosine into polyribosomal RNA, however, was lower than in the control sample. The results obtained suggest that the regulation of precocious germination of triticale embryos by phyto-hormones is not directly related to transcription.
