Abstract excerpt
Mutations in genes not required for exponential growth but essential for survival in stationary phase were isolated in an effort to understand the ability of wild-type Escherichia coli cells to remain viable during prolonged periods of nutritional deprivation. The phenotype of these mutations is referred to as Sur- (survival) and the genes are designated sur. The detailed analysis of one of these mutations is...
