Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.

Thermophilic Sulfate Reduction in Hydrothermal Sediment of Lake Tanganyika, East Africa [PDF]

, 1994
In environments with temperatures above 60 degrees C, thermophilic prokaryotes are the only metabolically active life-forms. By using the (SO42-)-S-35 tracer technique, we studied the activity of sulfate-reducing microorganisms (SRM) in hot sediment from

ADP-dependent Phosphofructokinases in Mesophilic and Thermophilic Methanogenic Archaea [PDF]

, 2001
Phosphofructokinase (PFK) is a key enzyme of the glycolytic pathway in all domains of life. Two related PFKs, ATP-dependent and PPi-dependent PFK, have been distinguished in bacteria and eucarya, as well as in some archaea.
