An integrated view on a eukaryotic osmoregulation system.

Abstract excerpt

Osmoregulation encompasses active homeostatic processes that ensure proper cell volume, shape and turgor as well as an intercellular milieu optimal for the diverse biochemical processes. Recent studies demonstrate that yeast cells operate within a tight window of cellular water concentrations tha...
