Purified cell walls, prepared from cotton fibres (Gossypium arboreum L.) at different growth stages, were subjected to successive extractions to give pectic, hemicellulosic, and c~-cellulosic fractions. The protein content and sugars obtained after hydrolysis of the total cell walls and of the vario
Bacillus subtilis forms both vegetative cells and spores. The Β―uidity of the membranes in these forms was measured by using Β―uorescent anisotropy of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH). The spores were more rigid than the vegetative cells, suggesting that the structure of the spores and vegetative c
## Abstract An early step in sporulation of the bacterium __Bacillus subtilis__, is the formation of two compartments in the developing sporangium: the mother cell and the forespore. These compartments differ in their programs of gene expression and developmental fate. The establishment of cell typ
