Cloning, sequencing, and characterization of the Bacillus subtilis biotin biosynthetic operon.

abstract：:Pulse labeling of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and radioautography have been used to study the effect of growth rate on nuclear replication in Aspergillus nidulans. When conidia were germinated in media supporting a fast growth rate, the radioactive pulse labeled either all of the nuclei in a cell or none of them. At s...
