Abstract:
:Granular structures containing inorganic polyphosphate were found in Micrococcus lysodeikticus. These structures were isolated by fractionation of the bacterial extract obtained by lysing the organisms with lysozyme. The composition of the fraction which was enriched with these structures was found to be: protein, 24%; lipids, 30%; and polyphosphate, 27%. This fraction also contained small amounts of ribonucleic acids, carbohydrate, and polyvalent cations. The effect of different reagents and enzymes on the integrity of the granules was examined. It was noticed that they accumulate in the bacteria during the logarithmic phase of growth but disappear gradually during the stationary phase.
