Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli Lon-mutants deficient in intracellular protease La have been isolated. The rate of degradation of normal cellular proteins was 1.5-2-fold lower in Lon-mutants as compared with that of the wild type strain. The rate of degradation of canavanine-containing abnormal proteins, as well as foreign proteins was significantly higher in E. coli than that of normal proteins. Lon-mutants possessed...
