Thermophilic bacteria and their thermozymes in composting processes: a review
In this review, the composting process of organic waste is discussed through an in-depth exploring of its thermophilic phase. It starts with the highlight on the thermodynamic evolution, which needs to be assessed when deciding to use reactors for ...

Identification of a deep-branching thermophilic clade sheds light on early bacterial evolution
It has been proposed that early bacteria, or even the last universal common ancestor of all cells, were thermophilic. However, research on the origin and evolution of thermophily is hampered by the difficulties associated with the isolation of deep ...

The term “extremophile” was introduced to describe any organism capable of living and growing under extreme conditions. With the further development of studies on microbial ecology and taxonomy, a variety of “extreme” environments have been found and an increasing number of extremophiles are being described. Extremophiles have also been investigated as

Prokaryotic Argonaute proteins (pAgos) widely participate in hosts to defend against the invasion of nucleic acids. Compared with the CRISPR-Cas system, which requires a specific motif on the target and can only use RNA as guide, pAgos exhibit precise ...
