Abstract: Objective: An inorganic pyrophosphatase gene (TK1700) from the thermophilic archaea Thermococcus kodakarensis was cloned on the plas mid pET-28a and successfully expressed in the Escherichia ...

Abstract: The possibilities of an in vitro translation system, based on cell components of the hyperthermophilic archaeon, Thermococcus kodakaraensis, to utilize at a lower temperature range were ...

THEY say size matters, but what of speed? In some lizards, penises have been evolving incredibly quickly – up to six times faster than other traits. Fertilising eggs when they are still inside ...

Until we understand the limits of life, it will be difficult to determine if alien planets can host any living beings, scientists say. By studying Earth-bound "extremophiles" — microbes that ...

We have applied chromatin sequencing technology to the euryarchaeon Thermococcus kodakarensis, which is known to possess histone‐like proteins. We detect positioned chromatin particles of variable ...

One extreme species, the Thermococcus microbe, can survive on so little energy that until now the chemical reaction it uses wasn't thought able to sustain life. These organisms were found living ...
