Is there a unique ribosome phenotype for naturally occurring Escherichia coli?

Biochimie - 1 Jan 2000

Mikkola R, Kurland C G

Abstract excerpt

We have compared the growth characteristics of natural isolates of E coli with the kinetic properties of their ribosomes in vitro. The variability of the different performance characteristics of ribosomes isolated from natural isolates of E coli show that there is not a unique wild-type ribosome phenotype just as there is not a unique growth phenotype for the bacteria. In addition, there is a strong correlation...
