Halomonas elongata strain MH25661, a moderate halophile, was isolated from a saline creek in the Andes of Peru. Genome annotation analyses revealed genes that respond to osmotic stress and oxidative stress, genes that are involved in sporulation, and genes that are involved in transport systems and resistance to antibiotics and toxic compounds.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
