Recent Development of Extremophilic Bacteria and Their Application in Biorefinery
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 The biorefining technology for biofuels and chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass has made great progress in the world. However, mobilization of laboratory research toward industrial setup needs to meet a series of criteria, including the selection of ...

Colors of extreme exo-Earth environments [PDF]
Astrobiology 13(1):47-56 (2013), 2012 The search for extrasolar planets has already detected rocky planets and several planetary candidates with minimum masses that are consistent with rocky planets in the habitable zone of their host stars. A low-resolution spectrum in the form of a color-color diagram of an exoplanet is likely to be one of the first post-detection quantities to be ...

Editorial: Microbial Life Under Stress: Biochemical, Genomic, Transcriptomic, Proteomic, Bioinformatics, Evolutionary Aspects, and Biotechnological Applications of Poly-Extremophilic Bacteria, Volume II [PDF]
, 2022 Habitats defined as “extremes” exist across the entire planet. They can be widely different in their physico-chemical features as they include a diverse array of harsh parameters thought to preclude the existence of living organisms, such as temperature,

Polar Microalgae: New Approaches towards Understanding Adaptations to an Extreme and Changing Environment [PDF]
, 2014 Polar Regions are unique and highly prolific ecosystems characterized by extreme environmental gradients. Photosynthetic autotrophs, the base of the food web, have had to adapt physiological mechanisms to maintain growth, reproduction and metabolic ...

Characterization of DNA Polymerase from Thermus thermophilus MAT72 Phage Tt72
Proceedings, 2020 Thermophilic phages are recognized as an untapped source of thermostable enzymes relevant in biotechnology; however, their biology is poorly explored. This has led us to start a project aimed at investigating thermophilic phages isolated from geothermal ...

Plastic Degradation by Extremophilic Bacteria [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Intensive exploitation, poor recycling, low repeatable use, and unusual resistance of plastics to environmental and microbiological action result in accumulation of huge waste amounts in terrestrial and marine environments, causing enormous hazard for human and animal life.

Zwitterions Layer at but Do Not Screen Electrified Interfaces [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The role of ionic electrostatics in colloidal processes is well-understood in natural and applied contexts; however, the electrostatic contribution of zwitterions, known to be present in copious amounts in extremophiles, has not been extensively explored. In response, we studied the effects of glycine as a surrogate zwitterion, ion, and osmolyte on the
