abstract：:This study has demonstrated the extreme sensitivity of Chlamydia trachomatis growing in McCoy cells to small changes in external amino acid supply. In the absence of cycloheximide, a decrease in the amino acid concentration of medium to 75% of control values was sufficient to induce the growth of enlarged chlamydial f...
