Glycerol-Mediated Repression of Glucose Metabolism and Glycerol Kinase as the Sole Route of Glycerol Catabolism in the Haloarchaeon Haloferax volcanii

Although glycerol is the primary carbon source available to halophilic heterotrophic communities, little is known regarding haloarchaeal glycerol metabolism. In this study, a gene encoding a glycerol kinase homolog (glpK; HVO_1541) was deleted from the genome of the haloarchaeon Haloferax volcanii b...
