Thermococcus kodakarensis modulates its polar membrane lipids and elemental composition according to growth stage and phosphate availability

We observed significant changes in the elemental and intact polar lipid (IPL) composition of the archaeon Thermococcus kodakarensis (KOD1) in response to growth stage and phosphorus supply. Reducing the amount of organic supplements and phosphate in growth media resulted in significant decreases in...
