2.1.1.156 | physiological function |
GSMT from a halophilic methanoarchaeon regulates betaine biosynthesis pathway by a distinct mechanism. GSMT catalyzes the first enzymatic step in synthesis of the osmolyte betaine in halophilic archaea, GSMT may also play a major role in coupling the salt-in and compatible solute (osmolyte) osmoadaptative strategies in halophilic methanogens for adapting to high salt environments |
