A polyextremophilic alcohol dehydrogenase from the Atlantis II Deep Red Sea brine pool. [PDF]

FEBS Open Bio, 2019
A polyextremophilic alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) was identified from single amplified genomes of the Atlantis II brine pool and was characterized in terms of activity and stability. The ADH was stable under high temperatures and hypersaline conditions, tolerated organic solvents, and preferably converted cinnamyl alcohol derivatives.

Substrate Specificity of the Highly Thermostable Esterase EstDZ3

ChemBioChem, Volume 24, Issue 5, March 1, 2023., 2023
The substrate specificity of the hydrolytic extremozyme EstDZ3 was studied by using various esters with different carbon chain lengths. Computational methods provided an insight into the enzyme's active‐site environment and the hydrophobic content of its amino acid, which seem to play a part in the enzyme's selectivity.

Amplicon‐Based Analysis of the Fungal Diversity across Four Kenyan Soda Lakes

Scientifica, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Microorganisms have been able to colonize and thrive in extreme environments characterized by low/high pH, temperature, salt, or pressure. Examples of extreme environments are soda lakes and soda deserts. The objective of this study was to explore the fungal diversity across soda lakes Magadi, Elmenteita, Sonachi, and Bogoria in Kenya. A new set of PCR
