Life has evolved over billions of years, adapting to the changing environment. Similarly, enzymes—proteins that speed up ...

Scientists have discovered a new phylum of microbes in Earth's Critical Zone, an area of deep soil that restores water ...

Scientists at Goethe University uncover how the oldest enzyme in cellular respiration functions – opening the door to potential CO₂ removal from exhaust emissions. Animals, plants, and many other livi ...

Enzymes originally evolved in high-temperature environments and later adapted to lower temperatures as Earth cooled. Scientists from Waseda ...

Nevertheless, studies of ancient bacteria that still occur today in ecosystems without oxygen, e.g. in hot springs at the bottom ... Cell respiration enzyme isolated just a few years ago A ...

Its 10,000 hydrothermal features—steamy vents, sulfurous mud pots, hot springs—support a broad diversity of microbes. Among them, unusual creatures that microbiologists call extremophiles ...

Structural equation modes of the interaction of vegetation, soil, and microbes. The specific model (A) results show the possible pathways of soil enzymes to enhance soil fertility and promote the ...

The patents cover several areas including enzymes, anti-freeze proteins and bioremediation, and are derived from marine and hot-spring microbes, cold-water fish, mammals and plant extracts.
