Glycine betaine and potassium ion are the major compatible solutes in the extremely halophilic methanogen Methanohalophilus strain Z7302.

Methanohalophilus strain Z7302 was previously isolated from a hypersaline environment and grows over a range of NaCl concentrations from 1.7 to 4.4 M. We examined the relationships between cell growth rate, cell volume, and intracellular solute concentrations with increasing salinity. This extremely...
