ADP-Dependent Kinases From the Archaeal Order Methanosarcinales Adapt to Salt by a Non-canonical Evolutionarily Conserved Strategy

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Halophilic organisms inhabit hypersaline environments where the extreme ionic conditions and osmotic pressure have driven the evolution of molecular adaptation mechanisms. Understanding such mechanisms is limited by the common difficulties encountered in
