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
