Temperature plays a primary role in anaerobic digestion, since it shapes microbial
ecosystems, and consequently regulates the stability performance of anaerobic digestion …

Abstract Type III CRISPR–Cas systems provide immunity to foreign DNA by targeting its
transcripts. Target recognition activates RNases and DNases that may either destroy foreign …

Thermus thermophilus is an attractive species in the bioindustry due to its valuable natural
products, abundant thermophilic enzymes, and promising fermentation capacities. However …

Bacterial genomes contain numerous insertion sequences (ISs) as transposable elements
involved in actions such as the sequestration, transmission, mutation and activation of genes …

NGS long-reads sequencing technologies (or third generation) such as Pacific BioSciences
(PacBio) have revolutionized the sequencing field over the last decade improving multiple …

During an oxidative stress-response assay on a putative Dps-like gene-disrupted Δ dgeo
_0257 mutant strain of radiation-resistant bacterium Deinococcus geothermalis, a non …

The transposition of insertion sequence elements was evaluated among different
Deinococcus geothermalis lineages, including the wild-type, a cystine importer-disrupted …

Eukaryotic Argonaute proteins strictly mediate RNA-guided RNA interference. In contrast,
prokaryotic Argonautes can utilize DNA guides to target complementary DNA sequences to …

Abstract Background The genus Acidithiobacillus has been widely concerned due to its
superior survival and oxidation ability in acid mine drainage (AMD). However, the …

The genome of the radiation-resistant bacterium Deinococcus geothermalis contains 19
types of insertion sequences (ISs), including 93 total transposases (Tpases) in 73 full-length …
