| Research Abstract |
To reveal the mechanisms to restart the proliferation of the bacterial cells from the growth suspending, I have performed the microarray analysis of the cells of various states through the cell cycle, using Escherichia coli cells as the model bacteria in this study. The results showed that many genes are transcribed in the early period of the restarting growth after the inoculation of the cells of stationary phase into the fresh medium, and that the physiological states, as well as the profiles of the gene expressions, of the cells of nonproliferation periods are varying according to the nutrient environments.
