THE X-AND Po /cap alpha/-IRRADIATION DOSE CURVES FOR B. COLI COMMUNIS

>2% glucose showed cells 2.6 times as long (18 times as large) as normal. The survival curves with x rays and Po alpha rays were S-shaped for the glucose cultures, which agreed with the classical target theory. The properties of the glucose culture were not inherited, and the culture returned to normal after subculturing once on normal meat-peptone agar. The dose curves are interpreted in terms of a theory of the differing roles of nucleoproteins and cytoplasmic proteins. The curve found with the glucose culture is interpreted as arising from the superposition of nuclear and cytoplasmic effects. (auth)
