Signature Arsenic Detoxification Pathways in Halomonas sp. Strain GFAJ-1

Since the original report that Halomonas sp. strain GFAJ-1 was capable of using arsenic instead of phosphorus to sustain growth, additional studies have been conducted, and GFAJ-1 is now considered a highly arsenic-resistant but phosphorus-dependent bacterium. However, the mechanisms supporting the...
