A short amino acid motif from A. pullulans 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphatase increases the halotolerance of this otherwise salt-sensitive enzyme. We inserted the amino acid motif into the homologous enzyme of the yeast S. cerevisiae and plant A. thaliana. We confirmed that the expression of the modified enzame increases the halotolerance of yeast and the salt and drought tolerance of the plant.
