Adapting to Water Stress: Convergence on Common Solutions that affects the activity, structure, or physical state of water poses a threat to life. The primary focus of this symposium is on the ways in which diverse organisms — archaebacteria, eubacteria, fungi, plants, and animals — cope with water stress that may arise from a wide variety of environmenta

Compatible and Counteracting Aspects of Organic Osmolytes in Mammalian Kidney Cells in Vivo and in Vand intracellularly. Many non-mammalian species face much higher osmotic pressures, and comparative physiologists have long known that cells in such organisms generally use organic solutes to maintain osmotic balance. From eubacteria to lower vertebrates, these organic osmolytes appear to fall withi

Molecular Basis for Accumulation of Compatible Osmolytes in Mammalian Cells with the operation of the renal concentrating mechanism (Jamison and Kriz 1982). Systematic screening by mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometry identified four predominant compatible organic osmolytes in the renal medullas of rabbits and rats, namely sorbitol, glyceroph

Compatible Solute Synthesis and Compartmentation in Higher Plantsamples to illustrate the present state of knowledge and to highlight some unanswered questions. Reviews by Wyn Jones (1984), Rhodes (1987), and McCue and Hanson (1990b) also cover these topics, and are sources of additional literature citations (see also Somero, this Vol.).

Osmotic Control of Transcription of the , Operon of ,s of solutes. As a result of this adaptive process, cells can maintain their volumes within relatively narrow limits despite large variations in the external osmolarity (Cram 1976; Yancey et al. 1982). Because the solutes used to regulate the intracellular osmolarity can be present at high concentra
