resistance of escherichia coli to penicillins. v. physiological comparison of two isogenic strains, one with chromosomally and one with episomally mediated ampicillin resistance.two essentially isogenic strains of escherichia coli k-12 were compared: d31 had chromosomally and d1-r1 episomally mediated resistance to ampicillin. the two strains had the same ability to form colonies on ampicillin plates, but in other tests they were quite different. in serial dilution tests as well as in exponentially growing cultures, d1-r1 was far more resistant to ampicillin than was d31. the inoculum effect with d1-r1 was large and with d31 was rather small. on plates, d31 was more res ...19684877126
disruption of bacterial cells by a synthetic zeolite.the use of a synthetic zeolite (type 4a, union carbide corp., linde div., new york, n.y.) in a procedure for the preparation of pure cell wall fractions proved successful for many gram-positive, gram-negative, and acid-fast bacteria, as well as for some fungi. the technique, however, was found to be limited in effectiveness for rhodospirillum rubrum, gaffkya tetragena, and sarcina lutea, and not applicable to preparations of heat killed microorganisms. the possible mechanisms of zeolite action, ...19684877657
amino acid coding in sarcina lutea and saccharomyces cerevisiae.aminoacyl-trna's from sarcina lutea were tested for incorporation into protein in a heterologous system from escherichia coli or for biniding in a homologous system from sarcina lutea. aminoacyl-trna's from saccharomyces cerevisiae were tested for biniding in a homologous saccharomyces cerevisiae system. synthetic polyribonucleotides were used as messengers. the code which exists in sarcina lutea and saccharomyces cerevisiae is the same as in escherichia coli.19674886536
