Membrane-bound deoxyribonucleic acid from Escherichia coli: effects of replication, protein synthesis, and ribonucleic acid synthesis.
The experiments presented in this paper suggest that the shift observed in sedimentation of deoxyribonucleic acid from cells of Escherichia coli subjected to amino acid starvation is related to inhibition of ribonucleic acid synthesis rather than to its release from the membrane at the termination of replication.
