Fig. 1. — Regulation of fungal HMG-CoA reductase activity and protein levels by environmental salinity. Different salinities of the medium were chosen as hyposaline (0% NaCl, only for halophiles), optimal, and hypersaline conditions in different fungi. Profiles of HMGR activity and HMGR protein levels of the indicated fungi are shown. β-Actin was used as loading control. *Optimal growth salinities. R. Data represent means ±SD of three independent experiments. Significant differences (Tukey's HSD) were seen between the value marked with an arrow-head and each of the samples marked with the dot.
