Enzymes synthesized by hyperthermophiles (bacteria and archaea with optimal growth
temperatures of> 80° C), also called hyperthermophilic enzymes, are typically thermostable …

It is now clear that the understanding of halophilic adaptation at a molecular level requires a
strategy of complementary experiments, combining molecular biology, biochemistry, and …

Background: Proteins from thermophilic organisms usually show high intrinsic thermal
stability but have structures that are very similar to their mesophilic homologues. From …

Three complete genome sequences of thermophilic bacteria provide a wealth of information
challenging current ideas concerning phylogeny and evolution, as well as the determinants …

Mice deficient in Klotho gene expression exhibit a syndrome resembling premature human
