A molecular perspective on the limits of life: Enzymes under pressure [PDF]
, 2016 From a purely operational standpoint, the existence of microbes that can grow under extreme conditions, or "extremophiles", leads to the question of how the molecules making up these microbes can maintain both their structure and function. While microbes

Developing Genetic Tools for Geobacillus [PDF]
, 2014 Bacillus and Geobacillus are the primary bacterium used in biotechnology industries due to their ability to excrete extracellular materials such as proteins, enzymes and other byproducts.

Regulation of Multiple Carbon Monoxide Consumption Pathways in Anaerobic Bacteria
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011 Carbon monoxide (CO), well known as a toxic gas, is increasingly recognized as a key metabolite and signaling molecule. Microbial utilization of CO is quite common, evidenced by the rapid escalation in description of new species of CO-utilizing bacteria ...

Evidence for horizontal gene transfer of anaerobic carbon monoxide dehydrogenases
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Carbon monoxide (CO) is commonly known as a toxic gas, yet it is used by both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria and many archaea. In this study, we determined the prevalence of anaerobic carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (anaerobic CODHs, or [Ni,Fe]-CODHs) in ...

Viral Diversity Threshold for Adaptive Immunity in Prokaryotes [PDF]
, 2012 Bacteria and archaea face continual onslaughts of rapidly diversifying viruses and plasmids. Many prokaryotes maintain adaptive immune systems known as clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated genes (Cas ...

Dark matter in archaeal genomes: a rich source of novel mobile elements, defense systems and secretory complexes [PDF]
, 2014 International audienceMicrobial genomes encompass a sizable fraction of poorly characterized, narrowly spread fast-evolving genes. Using sensitive methods for sequences comparison and protein structure prediction, we performed a detailed comparative ...
