Evolutionary divergence and salinity-mediated selection in halophilic archaea.
Microbiology and molecular biology reviews : MMBR - 1 Mar 1997
Dennis P P, Shimmin L C
Abstract excerpt
Halophilic (literally salt-loving) archaea are a highly evolved group of organisms that are uniquely able to survive in and exploit hypersaline environments. In this review, we examine the potential interplay between fluctuations in environmental salinity and the primary sequence and tertiary str...
