  • Title: Temperature sensitivity of the penicillin-induced autolysis mechanism in nongrowing cultures of Escherichia coli.
    Author: Kusser W, Ishiguro EE.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1987 May; 169(5):2310-2. PubMed ID: 3553163.
    Abstract:
    The effect of incubation temperature on the ampicillin-induced autolysis of nongrowing Escherichia coli was determined. The autolysis mechanisms in amino acid-deprived relA mutant cells treated with chloramphenicol were temperature sensitive. This temperature-sensitive autolysis was demonstrated in three independent ways: turbidimetric determinations, viable cell counts, and solubilization of radiolabeled peptidoglycan.
