Mutations in the rpoH gene, encoding sigma 32, an alternative factor required for transcription of the heat shock genes, result in the extensive aggregation of virtually all cellular proteins and formation of inclusion bodies both under stress and non-stress conditions. Inhibitors of protein synthesis suppress this aggregation, suggesting that newly synthesized proteins preferentially aggregate in rpoH mutants. These data suggest that the heat shock proteins are involved in acquisition of the soluble state (i.e. correct conformation) of the bulk of intracellular proteins after their translation.
