The effects of inhibition of protein synthesis on the cell size distributions of rel+ and relA- derivatives of Escherichia coli K-12 were determined. Amino acid deprivation resulted in a reduction in the cell sizes of rel+ strains but not of relA- strains. Treatment with chloramphenicol (CAM) did not alter the size distributions of either rel+ or relA- strains except when they were rel+ dap-. CAM treatment of rel+ dap- strains resulted in an increase in cell size. It is proposed that these results reflect differences in the structures of the cell envelopes of rel+ and relA- bacteria. |
