Water is the most frequent actor in the chemistry of metabolism. Our quantitation here reveals that water accounts for 99.4% of metabolites in Escherichia coli by molar concentration.
In cell biology, the importance of water has always been underestimated, however its role in protein folding and structure, proton and electron transfer, nucleic structure, and communication at a distance were emphasized (Chaplin, 2006).
