Abstract
A technique allowing chain formation by Escherichia coli for the analysis of the segregation of certain cellular components by autoradiographic methods has been developed. Deoxyribonucleic acid labeled with (3)H-thymidine does not appear to segregate preferentially with one or another of the bacteria. Membrane lipids labeled with either (3)H-oleate or (3)H-glycerol are evenly distributed among all progeny cells. A similar pattern of distribution of cell wall material is observed when (3)H-diaminopimelate is used as the marker.Entities:
