Osmolytes Contribute to pH Homeostasis of Escherichia coli

BACKGROUND: Cytoplasmic pH homeostasis in Escherichia coli includes numerous mechanisms involving pH-dependent catabolism and ion fluxes. An important contributor is transmembrane K(+) flux, but the actual basis of K(+) compensation for pH stress remains unclear. Osmoprotection could mediate the pH...
