Cell-to-cell DNA Transfer among Thermus Species
Bio-Protocol, 2016 The ability to transfer DNA via direct cell-to-cell contact-dependent process similar to conjugation has been described in Thermus thermophilus (Tth).

A third subunit in ancestral cytochrome c-dependent nitric oxide reductases [PDF]
, 2015 Reduction of NO to N2O by denitrifiying bacteria is catalyzed either by a monomeric quinol-nitric oxide reductase (qNor) or by a heterodimeric cytochrome c-dependent nitric oxide reductase (cNor).

RNA and DNA Targeting by a Reconstituted Thermus thermophilus Type III-A CRISPR-Cas System
PLoS ONE, 2017 CRISPR-Cas (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-CRISPR-associated) systems are RNA-guided adaptive immunity pathways used by bacteria and archaea to defend against phages and plasmids.

Characterization of three putative Lon proteases of Thermus thermophilus HB27 and use of their defective mutants as hosts for production of heterologous proteins [PDF]
, 2008 In the genome of a thermophilic bacterium, Thermus thermophilus HB27, three genes, TTC0418, TTC0746 and TTC1975, were annotated as ATP-dependent protease La (Lon). Sequence comparisons indicated that TTC0418 and TTC0746 showed significant similarities to

Antibodies, 2013 Rhamnolipids (RLs), the glycolipidic biosurfactants found initially as exoproducts of the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, are characterized as virulence factors contributing to its pathogenesis infections. However, RLs are also produced by

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.

Enhancing Allosteric Response in Thermus Thermophilus Phosphofructokinase [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2011 Phosphofructokinase (PFK) from an extreme thermophile, Thermus thermophilus (TtPFK), exhibits 17-fold stronger binding to its inhibitor, PEP, and 34-fold weaker coupling between the binding of PEP and substrate, Fructose-6-phosphate (F6P), when compared at 250C to the PFK from another thermophile, Bacillus stearothermophilus (BsPFK).
