Pattern of Replication of a Colicin Factor During the Cell Cycle of Escherichia coli

PMCID: PMC251582  PMID: 4565546

Abstract

The ColBM, trp, lac episome was transferred to a lacZ derivative of Escherichia coli B/r, and the manner of replication of this colicinogenic factor was followed through the cell cycle. The results suggest a pattern of replication not connected with any particular stage in the cell cycle.
