Genomic and Metabolic Network Properties in Thermophiles and Psychrophiles Compared to Mesophiles [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThermophiles and psychrophiles, adapted to extreme temperatures, thrive in hot and cold environments, respectively. Despite their importance to biotechnology and environmental research, their adaptation mechanisms remain unclear.

Psychrophiles elude genomic prediction of optimal growth temperature [PDF]
mSystemsWhile there have been numerous efforts to use genomic information to predict the optimal growth temperatures of bacteria and archaea, such models are often highly inaccurate when applied to taxa with lower optimal growth temperatures, including “cold ...

Genomic and evolutionary factors influencing the prediction accuracy of optimal growth temperature in prokaryotes [PDF]
mSystemsBacteria and archaea have evolved diverse genomic adaptations to thrive across various temperatures. These adaptations include genome sequence optimizations, such as increased GC content in rRNA and tRNA, shifts in codon and amino acid usage, and the ...

, 2023 Psychrophiles can be defined as the members of the kingdom Monera thriving permanently at the lowest temperature range. Since the majority of our planet is generally cold, psychrophiles are common within a wide range of habitats. Extensive research in the field of genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics revealed that psychrophiles are endowed with ...

Microorganisms from Antarctica: A Review of Their Potential in the Bioremediation of Hydrocarbon-Contaminated Soils [PDF]
MicroorganismsAntarctica’s extreme cryospheric conditions impose severe thermodynamic constraints on the natural attenuation of hydrocarbon pollutants. Despite the Antarctic Treaty System’s protections, the footprint of human logistics has left persistent reservoirs ...

Cryosphere and Psychrophiles: Insights Into a Cold Origin of Life?
Life, 2017 Psychrophiles thrive permanently in the various cold environments on Earth. Their unsuspected ability to remain metabolically active in the most extreme low temperature conditions provides insights into a possible cold step in the origin of life.

To Be or Not to Be Mesophilic, That Is the Question for Aeromonas salmonicida
Microorganisms, 2022 The bacterium Aeromonas salmonicida has long been known to be one of the most feared pathogens in fish farming. However, the more we discover about this bacterial species, the more we question whether it is really exclusively an aquatic pathogen.

Enzyme Catalysis in Psychrophiles
, 2017 Cold-active enzymes are produced by organisms, known as psychrophiles, adapted to permanently cold habitats. Low temperatures have an exponential deleterious effct on reaction rates, and thus psychrophilic enzymes have to be adapted to secure appropriate reaction rates in their environment.

Extremophiles and their application to veterinary medicine [PDF]
Irish Veterinary Journal, 2004 Extremophiles are organisms that can grow and thrive in harsh conditions, e.g., extremes of temperature, pH, salinity, radiation, pressure and oxygen tension. Thermophilic, halophilic and radiation-resistant organisms are all microbes, some of which are
