A Central Role for Magnesium Homeostasis during Adaptation to Osmotic Stress

ABSTRACT Osmotic stress is a significant physical challenge for free-living cells. Cells from all three domains of life maintain viability during osmotic stress by tightly regulating the major cellular osmolyte potassium (K+) and by import or synthesis of compatible solutes. It has been widely estab...
