Understanding How Microorganisms Respond to Acid pH Is Central to Their Control and Successful Exploitation

Microbes from the three domains of life, Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya, share the need to sense and respond to changes in the external and internal concentrations of protons. When the proton concentration is high, acidic conditions prevail and cells must respond appropriately to ensure that macromo...
