Analysis of the thermal stability of mercuric reductase from the hot brine environment of Atlantis II in the Red Sea by site-directed mutagenesis: Structural interpretation of thermolabile and enhanced thermostable mutants [PDF]
The lower convective layer (LCL) of the Atlantis II (ATII) deep brine is a unique environment located in the central Red Sea at a depth of 2000-2200 meters. It is characterized by high salinity, temperature of 68οC and high concentrations of toxic heavy

Ignicoccus hospitalis: a polyextremophilic microorganism with unusual high radiation tolerance
Ignicoccus hospitalis´ tolerance to ionizing and non-ionizing radiation has been studied extensively, and the DNA damages were visualized on a molecular level. Ignicoccus species, strictly anaerobic, hyperthermophilic (Topt. 90°C), chemolithoautotrophic, were found in deep-sea hydrothermal vents, and belong to the phylogenetically deep-branching ...

Dead Ecosystems Tell No Tales: How Mangrove Mortality Silences Polyextremophilic Enzymes Screening
Abstract The reliance on fossil energy is a significant issue that poses serious environmental and economic problems, fueling the search to find alternative sources of energy that are sustainable. The present study harnesses combined metagenomic-culturomics research to realise the bio-technological capabilities of mangrove microbiomes ...
