Summary Introduction
To review:
Coupling of translation and transcription in bacteria.
Introduction:
Bacterial cells are simple in structure, but are unique in terms of biological functions and structure. Bacterial cells are pathogenic in nature and are widely used in carrying out experiments because of its simple structure. On the basis of cell wall, bacteria can be divided in to two: Gram positive and Gram negative.
