New Viruses Infecting Hyperthermophilic Bacterium Thermus thermophilus [PDF]
VirusesHighly diverse phages infecting thermophilic bacteria of the Thermus genus have been isolated over the years from hot springs around the world. Many of these phages are unique, rely on highly unusual developmental strategies, and encode novel enzymes ...

The Reduction of Skin Photodamage by the Ectoine-Thermus thermophilus Cofermentation Products. [PDF]
J Cosmet DermatolABSTRACT Background Prolonged exposure to UVB (280–320 nm) can lead to skin oxidative damage, inflammatory response, and skin cancer. Many active ingredients in the fermentation products of Thermus thermophilus have been shown to play important roles in antioxidant and anti‐UVB photodamage, such as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and photolyase. Ectoine, as

Effects of Phytogenic Feed Additive on Production Performance, Slaughtering Performance, Meat Quality, and Intestinal Flora of White-Feathered Broilers [PDF]
Veterinary SciencesThis study systematically evaluates the effects of dietary supplementation with phytogenic feed additive (0.2%, 0.4%, and 0.8%) on white-feathered broilers (n = 88) through a 42-day controlled trial with the weight of approximately 50 g. The experimental

Protonated Glutamate and Aspartate Side Chains Can Recognize Phosphodiester Groups via Strong and Short Hydrogen Bonds in Biomacromolecular Complexes. [PDF]
Angew Chem Int Ed EnglThe highly negatively charged phosphodiester groups of nucleic acids and cyclic (di‐)nucleotides often interact with amino acids containing polar or positively charged sidechains. Due to charge repulsion with their negatively charged carboxylate groups in their side chains, glutamate and aspartate are considered to be detrimental to such interactions ...

Non-host class II ribonucleotide reductase in Thermus viruses: sequence adaptation and host interaction [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Ribonucleotide reductases (RNR) are essential enzymes for all known life forms. Their current taxonomic distribution suggests extensive horizontal gene transfer e.g., by processes involving viruses.
