The outer membranes of Escherichia coli K-12 cells carrying a derepressed F-like R factor contain about 7 times 10-4 molecules per cell of a protein similar to the subunit of the sex pili specified by the R factor. This protein pool is absent in cells carrying the repressed variant of the R factor. The size of the pool is about one-half of the amount of protein incorporated into mature sex pili at the peak of production and is independent of the phase of growth of the culture. The molecular weight of the protein in the pool and of the subunit of the sex pili specified by the cells is 12,500 plus or minus 600.
携带去阻遏 F 样 R 因子的大肠杆菌 K-12 细胞的外膜,每个细胞含有约 7×10⁻⁴个分子的一种蛋白质,该蛋白质类似于 R 因子所规定的性菌毛亚基。携带 R 因子阻遏变体的细胞中不存在这种蛋白质库。该库的大小约为成熟性菌毛产量峰值时掺入蛋白质总量的一半,且与培养物的生长阶段无关。库中蛋白质和细胞所规定的性菌毛亚基的分子量为 12500±600。
