title: [Change in the ultrastructure of the cell wall of Bacillus cereus, determined by RP4 MUCTS62 plasmid].
abstract: The influence of plasmid RP4 Mucts62, heterologous for B. cereus, on the growth rate of B. cereus strains GA 682 and 319 obtained in our earlier experiments and on changes in the ultrastructure of their cell walls in comparison with B. cereus initial strains GP 7 and DSM 318 has been studied. Plasmid RP4 Mucts62 with a wide spectrum of action has been found not only to determine the functional signs of resistance to antibiotics and thermal sensitivity in the heterologous host, but also to take part in the morphological organization of the cell surface structure, and in particular in the structure of the S-layer. B. cereus strains containing plasmid RP4 Mucts62 are characterized by slower growth rate and cell fragility.
