Living at the Extremes: Extremophiles and the Limits of Life in a Planetary Context

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Prokaryotic life has dominated most of the evolutionary history of our planet, evolving to occupy virtually all available environmental niches. Extremophiles, especially those thriving under multiple extremes, represent a key area of research for ...

Microbe‐Mediated Extracellular and Intracellular Mineralization: Environmental, Industrial, and Biotechnological Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 32, Issue 22, June 4, 2020., 2020
Different types of biomineralization, including calcification, silicification, iron, carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus mineralization, which are mediated by algae, bacteria, fungi, and viruses, are summarized. The mechanisms of extracellular and intracellular microbe‐mediated mineralization, as well as their environmental, industrial, and ...

In vitro biosynthesis of Ag, Au and Te-containing nanostructures by Exiguobacterium cell-free extracts

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2020
Background The bacterial genus Exiguobacterium includes several species that inhabit environments with a wide range of temperature, salinity, and pH. This is why the microorganisms from this genus are known generically as polyextremophiles.

Inorganic polyphosphates in extremophiles and their possible functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Many extremophilic microorganisms are polyextremophiles, being confronted with more than one stress condition. For instance, some thermoacidophilic microorganisms are in addition capable to resist very high metal concentrations.

Systems biology of cold adaptation in the polyextremophilic red alga Galdieria sulphuraria [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Abstract Rapid fluctuation of environmental conditions can impose severe stress upon living organisms. Surviving such episodes of stress requires a rapid acclimation response, e.g., by transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms.

Protease Production from Polyextremophilic Bacteria

open access: yesInternational Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences, 2016
A B S T R A C T Extremophilic organisms which are capable of surviving in two different extreme environmental conditions simultaneously are known as polyextremophiles. These organisms are known to be potent producers of bioactive compounds namely enzymes such as proteases which are rapidly used in the growing industrial sector uses such as in the ...
