Deoxyribonucleic acid-envelope complexes isolated from Escherichia coli by free-flow electrophoresis: biochemical and electron microscope characterization

W L Olsen et al. J Bacteriol. 1974 May.

Abstract

A procedure for the preparative isolation of Escherichia coli cell wall, membrane, and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-envelope complex fragments has been developed. The envelope fragments were produced by controlled mechanical cell breakage and isolated by density gradient centrifugation and subsequent preparative free-flow electrophoresis. The DNA-envelope complex fragments were shown to contain biochemical markers of both the cell wall and the membrane and by electron microscopy to be cell envelope fragments containing wall/membrane adhesion zones.
