Abstract
The cells of the cell-lethal mutant 1(1)ts403 are characterized by an extremely low level of synthesis of heat-shock proteins (hsp) after temperature elevation. The mutation affects not only the kinetics of hsp synthesis but also the electrophoretic pattern of hsp. Studies of puffing, RNA and protein synthesis in the mutant strongly suggest that hsp are involved in the regulation of their own synthesis at the level of puff induction, transcription and translation.
