Functional environmental screening of a metagenomic library identifies stlA; a unique salt tolerance locus from the human gut microbiome.
Functional environmental screening of metagenomic libraries is a powerful means to identify and assign function to novel genes and their encoded proteins without any prior sequence knowledge. In the current study we describe the identification and subsequent analysis of a salt-tolerant clone from a...
