Differences in lateral gene transfer in hypersaline versus thermal environments

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Background The role of lateral gene transfer (LGT) in the evolution of microorganisms is only beginning to be understood. While most LGT events occur between closely related individuals, inter-phylum and inter-domain LGT events are not uncommon.

Adaptive laboratory evolution of a thermophile toward a reduced growth temperature optimum

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Thermophily is an ancient trait among microorganisms. The molecular principles to sustain high temperatures, however, are often described as adaptations, somewhat implying that they evolved from a non-thermophilic background and that thermophiles, i.e ...

Synbiotics for prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia: a probiotics strain-specific network meta-analysis

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2019
Objective Probiotics may be efficacious in preventing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). The aim of this network meta-analysis (NMA) was to clarify the efficacy of different types of probiotics for preventing VAP.

Comparative analysis of thermophilic and mesophilic proteins using Protein Energy Networks

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2010
Background Thermophilic proteins sustain themselves and function at higher temperatures. Despite their structural and functional similarities with their mesophilic homologues, they show enhanced stability.

Genetic Tools and Techniques for Recombinant Expression in Thermophilic Bacillaceae

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2018
Although Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis are the most prominent bacterial hosts for recombinant protein production by far, additional species are being explored as alternatives for production of difficult-to-express proteins.
