Activation of phospholipase D by osmotic cell swelling.

abstract：:Polyphosphates (polyP) are long chains of inorganic phosphates that can be attached to lysine residues of target proteins as a nonenzymatic post-translational modification. This modification, termed polyphosphorylation, may be particularly prevalent in bacterial and fungal species that synthesize large quantities of p...
