Abstract excerpt
In their natural environments, microorganisms mainly operate at suboptimal growth conditions with fluctuations in nutrient abundance. The resulting cellular adaptation is subject to conflicting tasks: growth or survival maximisation. Here, we study this adaptation by systematically measuring the impact of a nitrogen downshift to 24 nitrogen sources on cellular metabolism at the single-cell level. Saccharomyces...
