Abstract excerpt
The buoyant density of wild-type Escherichia coli cells has previously been reported not to vary with growth rate and cell size or age. In the present report we confirm these findings, using Percoll gradients, and analyze the recently described lov mutant, which was selected for its resistance to mecillinam and has been suggested to be affected in the coordination between mass growth and envelope synthesis. The...
