Dimethylselenide Demethylation Is an Adaptive Response to Selenium Deprivation in the Archaeon Methanococcus voltae

The archaeon Methanococcus voltae needs selenium for optimal growth. A gene group most likely involved in the demethylation of dimethylselenide was discovered, the expression of which is induced upon selenium deprivation. The operon comprises open reading frames for a corrinoid protein and two putat...
