Microbial communities evolve faster in extreme environments
Evolutionary analysis of microbes at the community level represents a new research avenue linking ecological patterns to evolutionary processes, but remains insufficiently studied. Here we report a relative evolutionary rates (rERs) analysis of microbial communities from six diverse natural environments based on 40 metagenomic samples. We show that the rERs of microbial communities are mainly s...
متن کاملViruses from extreme thermal environments.
Viruses of extreme thermophiles are of great interest because they serve as model systems for understanding the biochemistry and molecular biology required for life at high temperatures. In this work, we report the discovery, isolation, and preliminary characterization of viruses and virus-like particles from extreme thermal acidic environments (70-92 degrees C, pH 1.0-4.5) found in Yellowstone...
متن کاملMagnetotactic Bacteria from Extreme Environments
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) represent a diverse collection of motile prokaryotes that biomineralize intracellular, membrane-bounded, tens-of-nanometer-sized crystals of a magnetic mineral called magnetosomes. Magnetosome minerals consist of either magnetite (Fe3O4) or greigite (Fe3S4) and cause cells to align along the Earth's geomagnetic field lines as they swim, a trait called magnetotaxis. ...
متن کاملEditorial: Enzymes from Extreme Environments
Enzymes are nature's biocatalysts and are equipped with high catalytic activity and remarkable substrate specificity. Enzymes catalyze the metabolic reactions necessary for all of life's processes and are able to catalyze reactions at much higher rates than would be possible without their action. The majority of enzymes are optimized to perform under physiological conditions or conditions consi...
متن کاملLegacy Effects on the Recovery of Soil Bacterial Communities from Extreme Temperature Perturbation
The type and frequency of disturbances experienced by soil microbiomes is expected to increase given predicted global climate change scenarios and intensified anthropogenic pressures on ecosystems. While the direct effect of multiple disturbances to soil microbes has been explored in terms of function, their effect on the recovery of microbial community composition remains unclear. Here, we use...
