Complete Genome Sequence of Thermus aquaticus Y51MC23. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Thermus aquaticus Y51MC23 was isolated from a boiling spring in the Lower Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park. Remarkably, this T. aquaticus strain is able to grow anaerobically and produces multiple morphological forms. Y51MC23 is a Gram-negative,

Growth models of Thermus aquaticus and Thermus scotoductus
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2012 Members of the genus Thermus family are signifiant producers of secondary metabolites, which are very commonly used in industry. Beside the productivity, it is also important to study the growth curve of each strain.

Thermostable Aldolase from Thermus aquaticus [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1970 Data are presented on the purification and properties of the thermostable fructose-1,6-diphosphate aldolase of Thermus aquaticus , a nonsporulating, extreme thermophile. The enzyme shows little activity at temperatures below 60 C and optimal activity at about 95 C.

Protein turnover in the extreme thermophile Thermus aquaticus [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1979 Protein turnover in the extreme bacterial thermophile Thermus aquaticus was examined in exponential cultures at 75 degrees C. The relative amount of [3H]leucine incorporated into trichloroacetic acid-insoluble material was stable in pulse-chase experiments assayed over 2.5 h.

Variants of a Thermus aquaticus DNA polymerase with increased selectivity for applications in allele- and methylation-specific amplification. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The selectivity of DNA polymerases is crucial for many applications. For example, high discrimination between the extension of matched versus mismatched primer termini is desired for the detection of a single nucleotide variation at a particular locus ...

Inhibitory Effect of Bridged Nucleosides on Thermus aquaticus DNA Polymerase and Insight into the Binding Interactions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Modified nucleosides have the potential to inhibit DNA polymerases for the treatment of viral infections and cancer. With the hope of developing potent drug candidates by the modification of the 2',4'-position of the ribose with the inclusion of a bridge,

Deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase from the extreme thermophile Thermus aquaticus [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1976 A stable deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) polymerase (EC 2.7.7.7) with a temperature optimum of 80 degrees C has been purified from the extreme thermophile Thermus aquaticus. The enzyme is free from phosphomonoesterase, phosphodiesterase and single-stranded exonuclease activities.

Effect of Growth Temperature on the Lipid Composition of Thermus aquaticus [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1971 The complex lipids of Thermus aquaticus include phospholipids, glucolipids, carotenoids, and vitamin K 2 isoprenologues. The phospholipids account for 30% of the total lipids and have been identified as phosphatidylethanolamine (4%), phosphatidylglycerol (3%), phosphatidylinositol (10 ...
