|
| Method |
The recovery of PPi at different growth phases was tested
by adding 100 pmol labelled [32P]PPi to the cultures immediately
before killing |
| Comments |
According to researchers' results the level of PPi in the growing
cells of Exherichia coli is 2.5 nmol/mg protein, which is
equivalent to the intracellular concentration of 0.5 mM, if
there are 2.7 ml intracellular water/g dry weight. See BNID 104792 |
