Phospholipid-Cholesterol Bilayers under Osmotic Stress [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2002 Isothermal (27 degrees C) phase behavior of dimyristoyl phosphatidyl choline-cholesterol mixtures at various osmotic pressures and cholesterol contents was investigated by means of isothermal sorption microcalorimetry and (2)H-nuclear magnetic resonance.

Enteric bacteria and osmotic stress: Intracellular potassium glutamate as a secondary signal of osmotic stress? [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1990 Enteric bacteria have evolved an impressive array of mechanisms that allow the cell to grow at widely different external osmotic pressures. These serve two linked functions; firstly, they allow the cell to maintain a relatively constant turgor pressure which is essential for cell growth; and secondly they permit changes in cytoplasmic composition such ...

Transport kinetics of ectoine, an osmolyte produced by Brevibacterium epidermis [PDF]
, 2006 Brevibacterium epidermis DSM 20659 is a halotolerant Gram-positive bacterium which can synthesize the osmolyte, ectoine, but prefers to take it up from its environment. The present study revealed that B.

Plastid Osmotic Stress Activates Cellular Stress Responses in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2014 Abstract Little is known about cytoplasmic osmoregulatory mechanisms in plants, and even less is understood about how the osmotic properties of the cytoplasm and organelles are coordinately regulated. We have previously shown that Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) plants lacking functional versions of the plastid-localized ...

Osmotic pressure: resisting or promoting DNA ejection from phage [PDF]
, 2008 Recent in vitro experiments have shown that DNA ejection from bacteriophage can be partially stopped by surrounding osmotic pressure when ejected DNA is digested by DNase I on the course of ejection.
