Discovery of two archaeal GDGT lipid modifying enzymes reveals diverse microbes capable of H-GDGT biosynthesis and modification
·doi:10.1101/2023.10.20.563219

Archaea produce unique membrane-spanning lipids, termed glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs), which are thought to aid in adaptive responses to various environmental challenges. GDGTs can be modified in a variety of ways, including…
