Origin and Sequence of Chromosome Replication in Escherichia coli B/r

The initial rates of induced synthesis of tryptophanase, β-galactosidase, and d-serine deaminase were measured in relation to the chromosome replication cycle of Escherichia coli B/r. Exponentially growing cultures were exposed briefly to (14)C-thymidine or the appropriate inducers (or both), and th...
