The extremophile Picrophilus torridus carries a DNA adenine methylase M.PtoI that is part of a Type I restriction-modification system

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
DNA methylation events mediated by orphan methyltransferases modulate various cellular processes like replication, repair and transcription. Bacteria and archaea also harbor DNA methyltransferases that are part of restriction-modification systems, which ...

Thermophilic anaerobic treatment and biogas generation from wastewater produced in an advanced biorefinery process

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Anaerobic digestion can be an alternative method for treating wastewater from second‐generation biorefineries while simultaneously producing biogas. However, the feasibility of the process and key operational parameters by which wastewater produced in lignocellulosic biorefineries affects reactor performance remain poorly understood.

Comparative ionomics and metabolomics in extremophile and glycophytic Lotus species under salt stress challenge the metabolic pre-adaptation hypothesis [PDF]

, 2011
The legume genus Lotus includes glycophytic forage crops and other species adapted to extreme environments, such as saline soils. Understanding salt tolerance mechanisms will contribute to the discovery of new traits which may enhance the breeding ...

ExMODE: A comprehensive resource for extremophile genomic and functional exploration

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
ExMODE (https://db.genomics.cn/exmode/) integrates 3518 samples to build a unified extremophile resource, which hosts 1.35 billion habitat‐specific non‐redundant genes, 5.25 million representative protein structures, 67,026 metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs), and 164,132 biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). By combining sequence‐, structure‐, and genome‐

Performance of the edible halophyte Cakile maritima under critical magnesium and potassium thresholds

Journal of Oasis Agriculture and Sustainable Development
In their natural biotope, plants are challenged with low nutrient availability which is one of the most important limiting factors for plant production. Nutrient limitation causes disruption in several metabolic pathways resulting in a decrease in plant

Cross-Stress Adaptation in a Piezophilic and Hyperthermophilic Archaeon From Deep Sea Hydrothermal Vent

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Hyperthermophiles, living in environments above 80°C and usually coupling with multi-extreme environmental stresses, have drawn great attention due to their application potential in biotechnology and being the primitive extant forms of life.

The pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase of the thermophilic acetogen, Thermoanaerobacter kivui

FEBS Open Bio, 2021
Pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (PFOR) is a key enzyme in bacterial anaerobic metabolism. Since a low‐potential ferredoxin (Fd2−) is used as electron carrier, PFOR allows for hydrogen evolution during heterotrophic growth as well as pyruvate synthesis
