Analysis of Benzene-Induced Effects on Rhodococcus sp. 33 Reveals that Constitutive Processes Play a Major Role in Conferring Tolerance by Tony Gutiérrez, Robert Learmonth, Iain Couperwhite

“…Under the phase and transmission electron microscope, the mutants were found to have lost the ability to produce extracellular polymers, and many cells appeared pleomorphic, containing intracellular membrane invaginations and mesosome-like structures. As will be discussed, these results identify important functions of the cell membrane, the cell wall, and extracellular polymer in their native state (i.e., before exposure) in conferring this organism with tolerance to benzene.…”
