Microbial membrane lipid adaptations to high hydrostatic pressure in the marine environment

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: . et al. from the Autonomous University of Mexico have published the Article: Microbial membrane lipid adaptations to high hydrostatic pressure in the marine environment, in the Journal: Microorganisms adapted to HHP are usually known as piezophiles, referring to their preference for high pressure (Kato, 2011). Regarding the adaptability to HHP, microorganisms can be piezolerant, if they can withstand HHP but have similar or faster growth rates at atmospheric pressure, while obligate piezophiles can only grow under HHP (Kato, 2011). Piezophiles are usually found at the bottom of the water column thus these microorganisms are both piezophiles . . .
