Structural adaptation of extreme halophilic proteins through decrease of conserved hydrophobic contact surface

BACKGROUND: Halophiles are extremophilic microorganisms growing optimally at high salt concentrations. There are two strategies used by halophiles to maintain proper osmotic pressure in their cytoplasm: accumulation of molar concentrations of potassium and chloride with extensive adaptation of the i...
