Adaptation of the carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase (CPS) enzyme in an extremophile fish [PDF]

, 2020
Tetrapods and fish have adapted distinct carbamoyl-phosphate synthase (CPS) enzymes to initiate the ornithine urea cycle during the detoxification of nitrogenous wastes.

Extremophiles in a changing world

Extremophiles
AbstractExtremophiles and their products have been a major focus of research interest for over 40 years. Through this period, studies of these organisms have contributed hugely to many aspects of the fundamental and applied sciences, and to wider and more philosophical issues such as the origins of life and astrobiology.

Bacterial growth in media mimicking the high salt and alkalinity of extreme kazakhstan environments results in production of antimicrobial compounds in soil actinomycetes isolated from these extremophile locations [PDF]

, 2013
Increasing antibiotic resistance among multidrug resistant pathogens necessitates the search for newer antimicrobials. Streptomyces historically produce the largest number of antibacterials and herein we describe isolation of antagonists from ...

Rhodotorula mucilaginosa Growth on Glutamine Is Sensitive to Mammalian-Glutaminase Inhibitors

Fermentation
The extremophile yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa can grow in extremely poor environments. Glutamine (Gln) is an important anaplerotic substrate for gluconeogenesis and pentose synthesis.

Casanovas are liars : behavioral syndromes, sperm competition risk, and the evolution of deceptive male mating behavior in live-bearing fishes [version 2; referees: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

, 2013
Male reproductive biology can by characterized through competition over mates as well as mate choice. Multiple mating and male mate choice copying, especially in internally fertilizing species, set the stage for increased sperm competition, i.e., sperm ...
