Abstract excerpt
Moderate osmolality can stimulate bacterial growth at temperatures near the upper limit for growth. We investigated the mechanism by which high osmolality enhances the thermotolerance of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, by isolating bacteriophage MudI1734-induced insertion mutations that blocked the growth-stimulatory effect of 0.2 M NaCl at 45 degrees C. One of these mutations proved to be in the seqA...
