Using extremophile samples to determine the possibility for life on Mars

, 2021
Extremophile organisms are uniquely suited to survive under extreme conditions, such as extreme cold or heat, radical pressure changes, high levels of radioactivity, and many other conditions. Extremophile samples collected from Yellowstone National Park’

The Lord of the Rings: Cysteine bonds crosslink the tail of siphovirus

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Long, non‐contractile tails composed of helical hexameric protein repeats that assemble into continuous tubular structures characterize siphoviruses. The siphovirus tail tube protein gp39 contains two cysteine residues per monomer. Cryo‐electron microscopy revealed that these cysteines are oriented toward the interface between the rings, which

SnapShot: Microbial Extremophiles

Cell, 2020
Extremophiles are remarkable examples of life's resilience, thriving in hot springs at boiling temperatures, in brine lakes saturated with salt, and in the driest deserts. We review the biogeography, currently known limits of life, and molecular adaptations to extremes. See the online interactive map for additional detail on biogeography, environmental

Systems Biology of Cold Adaptation in the Polyextremophilic Red Alga Galdieria sulphuraria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Rapid fluctuation of environmental conditions can impose severe stress upon living organisms. Surviving such episodes of stress requires a rapid acclimation response, e.g., by transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms.

Nonsterile Cultivation of the Thermophilic Cyanobacterium Parathermosynechococcus lividus PCC 6715 in a Floating Light Ball Reactor (FLBR) on 53‐L Scale for Zeaxanthin Production

ChemFoodChem, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2026.
We demonstrate cultivation of the thermophilic cyanobacterium Parathermosynechococcus lividus PCC 6715 at 40–55°C and 4 × 53 L scale using a Floating Light Ball Reactor (FLBR). The system enabled continuous illumination, non‐sterile operation with low contamination, flexible handling, and zeaxanthin production of 1.4–2.0 mg g−1, supporting future ...
