Initiation factor activities for natural messenger RNA translation are markedly reduced in extracts from stationary phase Escherichia coli, as compared to growing cells. Immunological techniques demonstrate that the amount of initiation protein IF3 is actually decreased in non‐growing cells. These changes result in a modified mRNA specificity in the stationary cell extracts.
