  1. The data are shown as the average values ± standard deviations of the mean (n = 2). Data are mean ± SD of two biological replicates. DIC means dissolved inorganic carbon. The conditions for low pH (pH 6.2) and high [DIC] (7 mM) were determined by the corresponding [H+] and [DIC] values under high CO2 (20%) conditions, respectively.
