Recombinant Pseudomonas growing on non-natural fluorinated substrates shows stress but overall tolerance to cytoplasmically released fluoride anion

ABSTRACTMicrobial response to toxic fluoride anion has traditionally been studied by adding inorganic fluoride salts to growth media. Fluoride is known to spontaneously transit the membrane as hydrogen fluoride (HF) and manifests significant toxicity in the cytoplasm. The present study investigated...
