Life on the Edge and Astrobiology: Who Is Who in the Polyextremophiles World?

Cellular Origin and Life in Extreme Habitats, 2013
Life exists in almost every ecological niche on Earth, and the majority of living organisms thrive in “normal” or “common” conditions. These are the environments that we are familiar with from our daily life. The organisms distributed under those conditions are at moderate temperature (5 to ~40 °C), 1 atm sea level pressure, with our known gas ...

Stress tolerance in a polyextremophile: the southernmost insect

Canadian Journal of Zoology, 2015
Since biotic interactions within the simple terrestrial communities on the Antarctic Peninsula are limited compared with tropical and temperate regions, survival is largely dictated by the numerous abiotic challenges. Our research focuses on adaptations to environmental stresses experienced by the Antarctic midge (Belgica antarctica Jacobs, 1900), the

Polyextremophilic Photoautotrophic Eukaryotic Algae

2013
Organisms that need any kind of extreme conditions to complete their life cycle are called extremophilic. That can be, e.g., elevated (thermophily) or lowered (psychrophily) temperature, an acidic pH (acidophily) or increased salinity (halophily). When two or more types of extreme conditions are required, organisms are designated as polyextremophilic ...

Characteristics of recombinant α-carbonic anhydrase of polyextremophilic bacterium Bacillus halodurans TSLV1

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2016
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is a biocatalyst that catalyzes the hydration of CO2 to bicarbonate and protons, thus useful in mitigating green house effect by sequestering CO2 from various point sources. An alkalistable and moderately thermostable α- carbonic anhydrase encoding gene (BhCA) from Bacillus halodurans TSLV1 has been cloned and expressed in ...
