The role of compatible solutes in desiccation resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]
MicrobiologyOpen, 2019 Acinetobacter baumannii is a nosocomial pathogen which can persist in the hospital environment not only due to the acquirement of multiple antibiotic resistances, but also because of its exceptional resistance against disinfectants and desiccation.

Compatible solutes determine the heat resistance of conidia [PDF]
Fungal Biology and Biotechnology, 2023 Background Asexually developed fungal spores (conidia) are key for the massive proliferation and dispersal of filamentous fungi. Germination of conidia and subsequent formation of a mycelium network give rise to many societal problems related to human ...

Compatible solutes: A listerial passe-partout? [PDF]
Gut Microbes, 2010 Recently we reported a role for compatible solute uptake in mediating bile tolerance and increased gastrointestinal persistence in the foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes.1 Herein, we review the evolution in our understanding of how these low molecular weight molecules contribute to growth and survival of the pathogen both inside and outside the ...

Glutamine synthetase 2 is not essential for biosynthesis of compatible solutes in Halobacillus halophilus [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Halobacillus halophilus, a moderately halophilic bacterium isolated from salt marshes, produces various compatible solutes to cope with osmotic stress. Glutamate and glutamine are dominant compatible solutes at mild salinities.

Compatible solutes and fungal development. [PDF]
Biochem J, 2006 Compatible solutes are components that can be quickly accumulated and degraded inside fungal cells. They do not disturb the functioning of proteins and protect the cell under adverse conditions. In this issue of the Biochemical Journal, Solomon and co-workers evaluate the role of mannitol, one of these components, in Stagonospora nodorum, a plant ...

Dual roles of glycine betaine, dimethylglycine, and sarcosine as osmoprotectants and nutrient sources for Vibrio natriegens [PDF]
Applied and Environmental MicrobiologyBacteria respond to osmotic stress by intracellularly accumulating low molecular weight compounds called compatible solutes, also known as osmolytes. Glycine betaine (N,N,N-trimethylglycine, GB) is a highly effective and widely available osmolyte used by
