Desiccation-induced fibrous condensation of CAHS protein from an anhydrobiotic tardigrade

Abstract Anhydrobiosis, one of the most extensively studied forms of cryptobiosis, is induced in certain organisms as a response to desiccation. Anhydrobiotic species has been hypothesized to produce substances that can protect their biological components and/or cell membranes without water. In extr...
