Composed of multi-domain morphological structures
- The mean-squared-width-difference along the axial direction of the cylindrical part of a number of bacteria was measured. The results reveal that the cylindrical part of Escherichia coli is composed of multi-domain morphological structures.

Jan 1, 2008 · The peptidoglycan is rigid determining the rod shape. To a good approximation, the E. coli cell has hemispherical caps and a cylindrical section in between. The peptidoglycan factories that are responsible for the growth of the cylinder are different from those that generate the new caps ( 39, 40 ).

The shape of Escherichia coli is strikingly simple compared to those of higher eukaryotes. In fact, the end result of E. coli morphogenesis is a cylindrical tube with hemispherical caps. It is argued that physical principles affect biological forms.

The results reveal that the cylindrical part of Escherichia coli is composed of multi-domain morphological structures. The length of the domains starts at 150 nm in newborn cells, and linearly increases in length up to 300 nm in aged cells.
