RESUMO
Long, nonseptate filamentous cells consisting of 5 to 40 single-cell unit lengths were formed from Escherichia coli surface mutant ONT-3 by treatment with a sublethal concentration of sodium dodecyl sylfate. As distinct from several other elongated cells (e.g., thymine-starved filaments), it was found here that stable giant spheroplasts, 5 to 10 micrometers in diameter, were produced by the action of lysozyme in the presence of bovine serum albumin via the gradual fusion of distinct spheroplasting bulbs.
