Microbial membrane lipid adaptations to high hydrostatic pressure in the marine environment

The deep-sea is characterized by extreme conditions, such as high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) and near-freezing temperature. Piezophiles, microorganisms adapted to high pressure, have developed key strategies to maintain the integrity of their lipid membrane at these conditions. The abundance of spec...
