Quote:. It can swap arsenic for phosphorus so completely that arsenic is incorporated into its DNA and other biomolecules like ATP, according to the study. This is a first, and it upends our assumptions about how life works.
This would suggest to me that it can, with only trace elements of phosphorus still remaining in it. However, I think the point is made a few lines down from that. We keep looking for life as we know it here on Earth.... but life doesn't have to be exactly the same as it is here?
