Yersinia pestis halotolerance illuminates plague reservoirs [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractThe plague agent Yersinia pestis persists for years in the soil. Two millennia after swiping over Europe and North Africa, plague established permanent foci in North Africa but not in neighboring Europe. Mapping human plague foci reported in North Africa for 70 years indicated a significant location at <3 kilometers from the Mediterranean ...

Three-dimensional structure of a halotolerant algal carbonic anhydrase predicts halotolerance of a mammalian homolog [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005 Protein molecular adaptation to drastically shifting salinities was studied in dCA II, an α-type carbonic anhydrase (EC 4.2.1.1) from the exceptionally salt-tolerant unicellular green alga Dunaliella salina . The salt-inducible, extracellular dCA II is highly salt-tolerant and thus differs from its mesophilic ...
