Diauxic growth, diauxie or diphasic growth is any cell growth characterized by cellular growth in two phases. Diauxic growth, meaning double growth, is caused by the presence of two sugars on a culture growth media, one of which is easier for the target bacterium to metabolize. The preferred sugar is consumed first, which leads to rapid growth ...
Signals from several different nutrient signaling pathways converge on Rim15, which activates the transcription factors, Gis1, Msn2, and Msn4. Gis1 binds to and activates promoters containing post-diauxic growth shift (PDS) elements while Msn2 and Msn4 bind to and activate promoters containing stress-response elements (STREs). Although it is ...
Catabolite repression was extensively studied in Escherichia coli. E. coli grows faster on glucose than on any other carbon source. For example, if E. coli is placed on an agar plate containing only glucose and lactose, the bacteria will use glucose first and lactose second.
Cells in different growth stages have different physical properties. Cells in a culture can thus be physically separated based on their density or size, for instance. This can be achieved using centrifugation (for density) or filtration (for size). In the Helmstetter-Cummings technique, a bacterial culture is filtered through a membrane.
“Omega-3 fatty acids may cause hair to enter its growth phase and stay in that phase longer, thus promoting hair growth,” says Yelena Wheeler, M.P.H., R.D.N. Sufficient fat intake is important ...
Exponential growth cannot continue indefinitely, however, because the medium is soon depleted of nutrients and enriched with wastes. The stationary phase is often due to a growth-limiting factor such as the depletion of an essential nutrient, and/or the formation of an inhibitory product such as an organic acid. Stationary phase results from a ...
In Malawi, clinics could soon be running out of critical HIV medication, unable to replenish their supply since the Trump administration ordered a freeze to U.S. foreign aid. The pause has halted ...
A dozen Tesla shareholders talked with BI about how they felt about Elon Musk's latest job: working with the Trump administration to cut costs across the federal government.
