Parallel evolution of trehalose production machinery in anhydrobiotic animals via recurrent gene loss and horizontal transfer
Trehalose is a versatile non-reducing sugar. In some animal groups possessing its intrinsic production machinery, it is used as a potent protectant against environmental stresses, as well as blood sugar. However, the trehalose biosynthesis genes remain unidentified in the large majority of metazoan...
