Chemoautotrophy in subzero environments and the potential for cold-adapted Rubisco
The act of fixing inorganic carbon into the biosphere is largely facilitated by one enzyme, Rubisco. Beyond well-studied plants and cyanobacteria, many bacteria use Rubisco for chemolithoautotrophy in extreme environments on Earth. Here, we characterized

Cellulases from psychrophilic microorganisms: a review [PDF]
Cellulases are hydrolytic enzymes that catalyze total hydrolysis of cellulose into sugars. Cellulases are produced by various groups of microorganisms and animals; however, psychrophiles are the ideal candidates for the production of enzymes active at ...

Cordova Psychrophiles Bio-Digester Benefit-Cost and Sensitivity Analysis [PDF]
Cordova is located in southcentral part of Alaska, 150 miles southeast of Anchorage, and can be accessed only by boat or plane. The average winter temperature1 varies from 17⁰ F to 28⁰ F (-8⁰ C to -2⁰ C) and the average summer temperature varies from 49⁰

Growth, lipid accumulation, and fatty acid composition in obligate psychrophilic, facultative psychrophilic, and mesophilic yeasts. [PDF]
Obligate psychrophilic, facultative psychrophilic, and mesophilic yeasts were cultured in a carbon-rich medium at different temperatures to investigate whether growth parameters, lipid accumulation, and fatty acid (FA) composition were adaptive and/or ...

Quantitative Ecology of Psychrophilic Microorganisms [PDF]
To obtain information on the importance of psychrophiles in nature, 95 samples of soil, water, mud, and various foods were quantitatively assayed for their content of psychrophilic bacteria and fungi and also for mesophilic and thermophilic bacteria and fungi. Thousands to millions of psychrophilic bacteria were present per gram of soil and represented

Prophages are ubiquitously present in bacterial genomes, significantly influencing host physiological and ecological functions. We present Prophage SOS‐dependency Predictor (PSOSP), a novel bioinformatics tool that predicts prophages induction modes by analyzing the Heterology Index (HI) of LexA protein binding to target DNA, classifying prophages into

Identification and Global Distribution of a Core Microbiome From High‐Arctic Lakes
Identification of the core microbiome from clear water lakes in the Arctic reveals non‐unique members when compared with a conceptually similar lake from a more temperate region. Biogeographic assignments revealed that the genera from this core were widespread globally within four general habitat categories.

An Unexpected Facet of Extremophiles: Their Aesthetic Potential in Artistic Expression
In an era marked by environmental challenges and the proliferation of misinformation, the fusion of art and science is a strategy to promote public understanding and appreciation of complex scientific phenomena. We illustrate how the use of extremophiles offers novel avenues for artistic exploration and emphasise the benefits of such interdisciplinary ...
