Microbial thermosensors

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2009
Temperature is among the most important of the parameters that free-living microbes monitor. Microbial physiology needs to be readjusted in response to sudden temperature changes. When the ambient temperature rises or drops to potentially harmful levels, cells mount protective stress responses--so-called heat or cold shock responses, respectively ...

Microbial Biomarkers

2017
Biomarkers, defined in ecotoxicology as functional measures of exposure to chemicals, may not be informative on the consequences of exposure at the scale of interest, which is the entire ecosystem. This drawback is because links and interactions existing between these measures and the biological system at a larger scale are not always sufficiently ...

Microbial Rhodopsins

2022
The first microbial rhodopsin, a light-driven proton pump bacteriorhodopsin from Halobacterium salinarum (HsBR), was discovered in 1971. Since then, this seven-α-helical protein, comprising a retinal molecule as a cofactor, became a major driver of groundbreaking developments in membrane protein research.

Microbial Levan

1990
Levans are natural polymers of the sugar fructose found in many plants and microbial products. Like dextrans, they are formed as an undesirable by-product of sugar juice processing. On the other hand, levans, which can only be produced from sucrose, have potential industrial applications as thickeners and encapsulating agents and could provide ...

Microbial oncogenesis

The American Journal of Medicine, 1987
For more than a century, medical investigators have sought to incriminate microorganisms in the cause of cancer. The first scientific evidence of such a relationship came in 1911, with the first successful induction of a tumor using a cell-free extract.

Microbial Rhodopsins

2018
Microbial rhodopsins (MRs) are a large family of photoactive membrane proteins, found in microorganisms belonging to all kingdoms of life, with new members being constantly discovered. Among the MRs are light-driven proton, cation and anion pumps, light-gated cation and anion channels, and various photoreceptors.

Microbial carotenoids

1995
Carotenoids occur universally in photosynthetic organisms but sporadically in nonphotosynthetic bacteria and eukaryotes. The primordial carotenogenic organisms were cyanobacteria and eubacteria that carried out anoxygenic photosynthesis. The phylogeny of carotenogenic organisms is evaluated to describe groups of organisms which could serve as sources ...

Microbial hemicellulases

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2003
Hemicellulases are a diverse group of enzymes that hydrolyze hemicelluloses--one of the most abundant groups of polysaccharide in nature. These enzymes have many biotechnological applications and their structure/function relationships are a subject of intense research.

Microbial globins

2003
Globins are an ancient and diverse superfamily of proteins. The globins of microorganisms were relatively ignored for many decades after their discovery by Warburg in the 1930s and rediscovery by Keilin in the 1950s. The relatively recent focus on them has been fuelled by recognition of their structural diversity and fine-tuning to fulfill (probably ...
