Osmoregulation and the Anthozoan-Dinoflagellate Symbiosis
This study investigated the responses of the temperate anemone Anthopleura aureoradiata, and the tropical coral Acropora aspera to osmotic stress and the role that free amino acids (FAAs) may play in…
Compatible solutes in three marine intertidal microphytobenthic Wadden Sea diatoms exposed to different salinities
TLDR
Significant differences in osmolyte compositions were found in the three diatom species during exposure to different salinities, suggesting specific intracellular acclimation processes that provide possible explanations of the species’ insensitivity towards environmental short-time salinity variations.

TLDR
Organic osmolytes are small solutes used by cells of numerous water-stressed organisms and tissues to maintain cell volume and have applications in biotechnology, agriculture and medicine, including in vitro rescue of the misfolded protein of cystic fibrosis.
Microbial water stress
TLDR
The author revealed that the phytochemical Mechanism of Nonelectrolyte Action and Regulation of Compatible Solute Accumulation in the context of Microbial Water Relations and Food presented a new threat to survival than previously thought.
Microbial water stress.
TLDR
It is argued that, notwithstanding the indispensability of water in living systems and the unique properties of solvent water, quantitative variations in the amount of water available are of less direct microbiological significance than is generally conceded.
Identification and characterization of a novel GNAT superfamily Nα -acetyltransferase from Salinicoccus halodurans H3B36.
TLDR
As a new member of the GNAT superfamily, the ShKAT was the first enzyme recognized free lysine as substrate, and reveals great potential of the shkat gene to be applied in genetic engineering for resisting extreme conditions.

TLDR
The effects of chlorides on NADP-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase from Halobacterium salinarium were investigated, with apparent Michaelis constants affected by salt concentration, the effect being greater in sodium chloride than in potassium chloride.
