Effects of temperature, salinity, and medium composition on compatible solute accumulation by thermococcus spp
The effects of salinity and growth temperature on the accumulation of intracellular organic solutes were examined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) in Thermococcus litoralis, Thermococcus celer, Thermococcus stetteri, and Thermococcus zilligii (strain AN1). In addition, the effects of growth stage and composition of the medium were studied in T. litoralis. A novel compound identi...
متن کاملRegulation of compatible solute accumulation in bacteria.
In their natural habitats, microorganisms are often exposed to osmolality changes in the environment. The osmotic stress must be sensed and converted into an activity change of specific enzymes and transport proteins and/or it must trigger their synthesis such that the osmotic imbalance can be rapidly restored. On the basis of the available literature, we conclude that representative gram-negat...
متن کاملOsmosensing and osmoregulatory compatible solute accumulation by bacteria.
Bacteria inhabit natural and artificial environments with diverse and fluctuating osmolalities, salinities and temperatures. Many maintain cytoplasmic hydration, growth and survival most effectively by accumulating kosmotropic organic solutes (compatible solutes) when medium osmolality is high or temperature is low (above freezing). They release these solutes into their environment when the med...
متن کاملCompatible Solute Accumulation, Osmoticum Maintanance and Growth in Panicum Miliaceum L. Exposed to Salinity
Salinity is one of the most important constrain affecting crop growth and productivity. Hence studying salinity at morphological and biochemical point of view has become the basis for understanding salinity and plant interactions. Under stress, plants survive by enhancing the osmolyte accumulation by complex metabolic activities. Present investigation deals with the effect of salinity on growth...
متن کاملRegulation of compatible solute accumulation in larvae of the mosquito Culex tarsalis: osmolarity versus salinity.
In this study, we demonstrate that two of the osmolytes utilized in the osmoconforming strategy of larval Culex tarsalis are regulated by two fundamentally different signals. When the external osmolality was increased using salinity (sea salts), hemolymph NaCl, proline and trehalose concentrations increased significantly. When sorbitol was used to increase the external osmolality without an ele...
