    Molecular Biology by Robert F. Weaver



Alarmone Notes:

Alarmone is a compound that is produced in an organism, in response to harsh environmental factors, like stress. It in turn initiates actions to cope with such conditions. Alarmone regulate the expression of genes at transcription level. They are produced in high amounts when harsh factors, like the lack of amino acids, occur in plants and bacteria.
