Deoxyribonucleic acid replication and cell division in Escherichia coli at 33 C

T Marunouchi et al. J Bacteriol. 1972 Dec.

Abstract

At 33 C (60-min generation time) the time required to replicate the chromosome is C = 60 min. The time between the end of a round of replication and cell division is D = 20 min, as at 37 C. Nalidixic acid and a temperature shift in a dnaB mutant give identical results for the determination of the end of a round of replication.
