Cell division in Echerichia coli : the involvement of the peptidoglycan

The role of the cell envelope in cell division has been examined using mutants of Escherichia coli which are temperature-sensitive in the process of cell division. These mutants grow normally at 30 C but exhibit morphological changes at 42 C. Two assays for peptidoglycan-specific autolytic enzymes...
