| Abstract |
A mutant of Escherichia coli that lacks leucyl-, phenylalanyl-transfer ribonucleic acid-protein transferase had diminished activities of L-phenylalanyl-transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase and tryptophanase, grew faster than its parent with aspartic acid as the sole nitrogen source, accumulated higher levels of enterochelin in the medium during iron limitation, and exhibited an abnormal morphology. |

Notes
- OMP Cell shape: What exists implies a state, thus there is no relative phenotypes. Must create phenotypes for all shapes keeping in mind that some colonies will have a mixed and oddly shaped mutants that might not fall into predefined shapes we create.
- Marcus was going to think about this since this node might need a complete overhaul to take into account disjoint relationships.
