Abstract excerpt
In Escherichia coli, the level of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase is directly proportional to the cellular growth rate during growth in minimal media. This contrasts with the report by Winkler et al. (M. E. Winkler, J. R. Roth, and P. E. Hartman, J. Bacteriol. 133:830-843, 1978) that the level of the enzyme in Salmonella typhimurium LT-2 strain SB3436 is invariant. The basis for the difference in the...
