Origins of Thermophilicity in Endoglucanases [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2010
Endoglucanases are involved in the initial stages of cellulose breakdown--an essential step in the bioprocessing of lignocellulosic plant materials into bioethanol. Although these enzymes are economically important, we currently lack a basic understanding of how some endoglucanases can sustain their ability to function at elevated temperatures needed ...

Anaerobic carboxydotrophic bacteria in geothermal springs identified using stable isotope probing

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a potential energy and carbon source for thermophilic bacteria in geothermal environments. Geothermal sites ranging in temperature from 45–65°C were investigated for the presence and activity of anaerobic CO-oxidizing bacteria ...

Thermophiles; or, the Modern Prometheus: The Importance of Extreme Microorganisms for Understanding and Applying Extracellular Electron Transfer

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Approximately four billion years ago, the first microorganisms to thrive on earth were anaerobic chemoautotrophic thermophiles, a specific group of extremophiles that survive and operate at temperatures ∼50 – 125°C and do not use molecular oxygen (O2 ...

Potential for the anaerobic oxidation of benzene and naphthalene in thermophilic microorganisms from the Guaymas Basin

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Unsubstituted aromatic hydrocarbons (UAHs) are recalcitrant molecules abundant in crude oil, which is accumulated in subsurface reservoirs and occasionally enters the marine environment through natural seepage or human-caused spillage.
