  • Title: [Constructive and energy metabolism changes in the formation and germination of resting retractile forms of Bacillus cereus].
    Author: Pronin SV, Eremin VA, El'-Registan GI, Duda VI.
    Journal: Mikrobiologiia; 1981; 50(6):1062-5. PubMed ID: 6799756.
    Abstract:
    It has been found that, as soon as Bacillus cereus vegetative cells yield resting refractile forms under the action of specific autoregulating factors, the incorporation of labeled precursors of the main cellular biopolymers and lipids stops almost entirely and the level of cell endogenous respiration abruptly decreases. When the refractile forms revert to the vegetative state and growth, the processes of biosynthesis and respiration are restored. The level of metabolism typical of vegetative cells of the control cultures is reached within 90 min.
