Journal ArticleDOI
Interralations between nucleic acid and protein biosynthesis I. Synthesis and fate of bacterial nucleic acids during exposure to, and recovery from the action of chloramphenicol
TL;DR: Cells of E. coli B/r, whose protein synthesis is inhibited by chloramphenicol, accumulate several times the amounts of intracellular nucleic acids contained in log-phase bacteria before the onset of chlorampshenicol-induced bacteriostasis.
