Proline Over-Production Enhances Nitrogenase Activity Under Osmotic Stress in Klebsiella Pneumoniae

In 1955, J. H. B. Christian made the interesting observation that proline, added exogenously at low concentrations, specifically stimulated the growth rate (Christian, dy1955a,b) and respiration rate (Christia...
