DNA repair enzymes of the Antarctic Dry Valley metagenome

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
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]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mining and Geo-Engineering, 2016
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.

The first cultivated representatives of the actinobacterial lineage OPB41 isolated from subsurface environments constitute a novel order Anaerosomatales

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The continental subsurface harbors microbial populations highly enriched in uncultured taxa. OPB41 is an uncultured order-level phylogenetic lineage within the actinobacterial class Coriobacteriia.

Genome sequencing analysis of a novel thermophilic strain Geobacillus sp. CX412

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
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.

A proteome‐scale analysis of vertebrate protein amino acid occurrence: Thermoadaptation shows a correlation with protein solvation but less so with dynamics

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 91, Issue 1, Page 3-15, January 2023., 2023
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

Comparative Transcriptomics Sheds Light on Remodeling of Gene Expression during Diazotrophy in the Thermophilic Methanogen Methanothermococcus thermolithotrophicus

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Some marine thermophilic methanogens are able to perform energy-consuming nitrogen fixation despite deriving only little energy from hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis.

The structure of His‐tagged Geobacillus stearothermophilus purine nucleoside phosphorylase reveals a `spanner in the works'

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section F, Volume 78, Issue 12, Page 416-422, December 2022., 2022
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

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section F, Volume 78, Issue 12, Page 403-407, December 2022., 2022
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

open access: yesEvolution, Volume 76, Issue 12, Page 3001-3013, December 2022., 2022
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.
