Escherichia coli B/r ATCC 12407 which grew synchronously with interdivision times of 45 and 85 min were exposed at intervals to chloramphenicol (200 mug/ml) and [(14)C]thymidine for short or long (residual) periods. The results suggested that the pattern of residual thymidine incorporation in 85-min cells yielded an estimate of the length of the D period rather than the time of initiation of chromosome replication.
将细胞分裂间隔时间分别为45分钟和85分钟的同步生长的大肠杆菌B/r ATCC 12407,每隔一段时间暴露于氯霉素(200微克/毫升)和[¹⁴C]胸腺嘧啶核苷中,暴露时间有短有长(剩余时间)。结果表明,85分钟细胞中剩余胸腺嘧啶核苷掺入模式得出的是D期长度的估计值,而非染色体复制起始时间的估计值。
