Discovery, structure and mechanism of a tetraether lipid synthase

Archaea synthesize isoprenoid-based ether-linked membrane lipids, which enable them to withstand extreme environmental conditions, such as high temperatures, high salinity, and low or high pH values(1–5). In some archaea, such as Methanocaldococcus jannaschii, these lipids are further modified by fo...
