Osmotic Imbalance, Cytoplasm Acidification and Oxidative Stress Induction Support the High Toxicity of Chloride in Acidophilic Bacteria
In acidophilic microorganisms, anions like chloride have higher toxicity than their neutrophilic counterparts. In addition to the osmotic imbalance, chloride can also induce acidification of the cytoplasm. We predicted that intracellular acidification produces an increase in respiratory rate and gen...
