Abstract The Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau has exhibited heightened sensitivity to global
warming than any other region. G. ekloni, an endemic fish of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau …

Bacterial methionine biosynthesis can take place by either the trans-sulfurylation route or
direct sulfurylation. The enzymes responsible for trans-sulfurylation have been characterized …

Thermophiles are extremophiles that grow optimally at temperatures> 45° C. To survive and
maintain function of their biological molecules, they have a suite of characteristics not found …

Interest in thermophilic bacteria as live-cell catalysts in biofuel and biochemical industry has
surged in recent years, due to their tolerance of high temperature and wide spectrum of …
