Bioprospecting of Novel Extremozymes From Prokaryotes—The Advent of Culture-Independent Methods

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Extremophiles are remarkable organisms that thrive in the harshest environments on Earth, such as hydrothermal vents, hypersaline lakes and pools, alkaline soda lakes, deserts, cold oceans, and volcanic areas.

Shedding light on the composition of extreme microbial dark matter: alternative approaches for culturing extremophiles

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
More than 20,000 species of prokaryotes (less than 1% of the estimated number of Earth’s microbial species) have been described thus far. However, the vast majority of microbes that inhabit extreme environments remain uncultured and this group is termed “

CO2-Fixation Strategies in Energy Extremophiles: What Can We Learn From Acetogens? [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Domestication of CO2-fixation became a worldwide priority enhanced by the will to convert this greenhouse gas into fuels and valuable chemicals. Because of its high stability, CO2-activation/fixation represents a true challenge for chemists.

Extremophiles 2002 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2003
"Extremophiles 2002," held in Naples, Italy, 22 to 26 September 2002, was the fourth international conference on microorganisms growing in very diverse and severe environments, such as high or low temperature, acidic and alkaline conditions, high salt concentrations, and high pressure.

A deeply branching thermophilic bacterium with an ancient acetyl-CoA pathway dominates a subsurface ecosystem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A nearly complete genome sequence of Candidatus ‘Acetothermum autotrophicum’, a presently uncultivated bacterium in candidate division OP1, was revealed by metagenomic analysis of a subsurface thermophilic microbial mat community.

Perspectives on the microorganism of extreme environments and their applications

open access: yesCurrent Research in Microbial Sciences, 2022
Extremophiles are organisms that can survive and thrive in conditions termed as “extreme” by human beings. Conventional methods cannot be applied under extreme conditions like temperature and pH fluctuations, high salinity, etc. for a variety of reasons.

Environment and taxonomy shape the genomic signature of prokaryotic extremophiles

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
This study provides comprehensive quantitative evidence suggesting that adaptations to extreme temperatures and pH imprint a discernible environmental component in the genomic signature of microbial extremophiles. Both supervised and unsupervised machine
