| Abstract: | Two different groups of methanol-utilizing bacteria were studied by electron microscopy. Bacteria using the serine pathway for the assimilation of methanol were found to have a thin cell envelope (outer membrane, periplasmic area and cytoplasmic membrane). Those using the assimilatory ribulose monophosphate pathway of formaldehyde fixation had a much thicker cell envelope and in the case ofPseudomonas C protrusions of the outer membrane were found. |
