Cell Cycle-Specific Incorporation of Lipoprotein into the Outer Membrane of Escherichia coli

Richard James a,1, Lorraine J Gudas a,2
PMCID: PMC233375  PMID: 1107313

Abstract

A cell cycle-specific incorporation of free lipoprotein into the outer membrane of Escherichia coli was observed, with a maximal rate of incorporation occuring at the time of septation.
