Mutant of Bacillus subtilis demonstrating the requirement of lysis for growth
J Bacteriol.
1971 Feb.
Abstract
A temperature-sensitive mutant of Bacillus subtilis which has impaired ability to autolyze was isolated. The growth rate of mutant cells at high temperature can be increased by the addition of egg-white lysozyme or a B. subtilis autolysin. Experiments with this mutant show that lysis is essential for cell growth.
