Response of Escherichia coli growth rate to osmotic shock
Open accessAbstract
Significance: The peptidoglycan cell wall is a universal feature of bacteria that determines their shape, their effect on the human immune system, and their susceptibility to many of our front-line antibiotics. Therefore, it is essential to understand the physiology of this structure. Here, we examine the fundamental biomechanical and biochemical processes that drive cell-wall expansion during cell growth. We demonstrate that, contrary to a long-standing hypothesis, osmotic pressure is not essential for cell-wall expansion of the model bacterium Escherichia coli and that growth of this organism is robust to changes in osmotic pressure. This may be an important adaptation for an enteric bacterium, which regularly faces drastic changes in its osmotic environment during entry and exit from the intestine.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
