Evolutionary History of DMSP Lyase-Like Genes in Animals and Their Possible Involvement in Evolution of the Scleractinian Coral Genus, Acropora

Dimethlysulfoniopropionate (DMSP) lyase is an enzyme that mediates cleavage of DMSP into dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and acrylate. DMS is an aerosol substance that may affect cloud formation, solar radiation and ocean temperatures. DMSP lyases in marine organisms, such as marine bacteria, release DMS, wh...
