Abstract excerpt
It has been reported that Escherichia coli is able to grow in the presence of carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) when ATP is produced by glycolysis (N. Kinoshita et al., J. Bacteriol. 160:1074-1077, 1984). We investigated the effect of CCCP on the osmotic adaptation of E. coli growing with glucose. When E. coli growing in rich medium containing CCCP was transferred to medium containing sucrose, its...
