RRelationship between the level of induction of colicin E1 synthesis and the content of plasmid DNA in Escherichia coli K12S (E1) cells was studied. The number of Col E1 DNA copies per cell was found to decrease with growing generation time for different growth media and to increase continuously for the time of synchronous cell division cycle. No apparent relation of the level of spontaneous induction and of induction caused by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine to the number of Col E1 DNA copies per cell was observed. It is inferred that the content of plasmid DNA in the cells is not among the main factors determining the level of induction of colicin synthesis.

D003470 Culture Media Any liquid or solid preparation made specifically for the growth, storage, or transport of microorganisms or other types of cells. The variety of media that exist allow for the culturing of specific microorganisms and cell types, such as differential media, selective media, test media, and defined media. Solid media consist of liquid media that have been solidified with an agent such as AGAR or GELATIN. Media, Culture

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
