DNA repair enzymes of the Antarctic Dry Valley metagenome
Microbiota inhabiting the Dry Valleys of Antarctica are subjected to multiple stressors that can damage deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) such as desiccation, high ultraviolet light (UV) and multiple freeze-thaw cycles.

Temporal dynamics of geothermal microbial communities in Aotearoa-New Zealand
Microbial biogeography studies, in particular for geothermal-associated habitats, have focused on spatial patterns and/or individual sites, which have limited ability to describe the dynamics of ecosystem behaviour.

Bioleaching of a low grade sphalerite concentrate produced from flotation tailings [PDF]
In this research work, the zinc extraction was investigated, using bioleaching process from a low grade zinc concentrate which was produced from the accumulated flotation tailings.

Genome sequencing analysis of a novel thermophilic strain Geobacillus sp. CX412
The thermophilic spore-forming strain Geobacillus sp. CX412 was isolated from hot spring soil in Tengchong City, Yunnan Province, China. We sequenced the complete genome of Geobacillus sp. CX412 using PacBio SMRT Sequencing.

Abstract Despite differences in behaviors and living conditions, vertebrate organisms share the great majority of proteins, often with subtle differences in amino acid sequence. Here, we present a simple way to analyze the difference in amino acid occurrence by comparing highly homologous proteins on a subproteome level between several vertebrate model

The structure of Geobacillus stearothermophilus purine nucleoside phosphorylase, an enzyme of biocatalytic interest, is reported and was found to include the presence of an N‐terminal tag in the active site of each subunit that belongs to the other subunit in each dimer.

Relating protein crystal structure to ligand‐binding thermodynamics
Is it possible to relate experimental calorimetry measurements of protein ligand binding to 3D structures?An important interface between biophysical chemistry and biological crystal structures involves whether it is possible to relate experimental calorimetry measurements of protein ligand binding to 3D structures.

Thermal adaptation of pelage in desert rodents balances cooling and insulation
Abstract Phenotypic convergence across distantly related taxa can be driven by similar selective pressures from the environment or intrinsic constraints. The roles of these processes on physiological strategies, such as homeothermy, are poorly understood.
