Capsular polysaccharides and lipopolysaccharides from psychrophiles: structural characterization and biological activity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Psychrophiles are microorganisms able to colonize cold environments. Some of the adaptation strategies of Gram-negative bacteria involve the external layer (such as LPSs and CPSs).

Understanding High-Salt and Cold Adaptation of a Polyextremophilic Enzyme

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
The haloarchaeon Halorubrum lacusprofundi is among the few polyextremophilic organisms capable of surviving in one of the most extreme aquatic environments on Earth, the Deep Lake of Antarctica (−18 °C to +11.5 °C and 21–28%, w/v salt content). Hence, H.
