Microbial diversity of extreme habitats in human homes
High-throughput sequencing techniques have opened up the world of microbial diversity to scientists, and a flurry of studies in the most remote and extreme habitats on earth have begun to elucidate the key roles of microbes in ecosystems with extreme conditions. These same environmental extremes can also be found closer to humans, even in our homes. Here, we used high-throughput sequencing tech...
متن کاملMicrobial Diversity in Extreme Marine Habitats and Their Biomolecules
Extreme marine environments have been the subject of many studies and scientific publications. For many years, these environmental niches, which are characterized by high or low temperatures, high-pressure, low pH, high salt concentrations and also two or more extreme parameters in combination, have been thought to be incompatible to any life forms. Thanks to new technologies such as metagenomi...
متن کاملA microbial arsenic cycle in a salt-saturated, extreme environment.
Searles Lake is a salt-saturated, alkaline brine unusually rich in the toxic element arsenic. Arsenic speciation changed from arsenate [As(V)] to arsenite [As(III)] with sediment depth. Incubated anoxic sediment slurries displayed dissimilatory As(V)-reductase activity that was markedly stimulated by H2 or sulfide, whereas aerobic slurries had rapid As(III)-oxidase activity. An anaerobic, extre...
متن کاملDeprenyl Can Mediate Neuronal Protection Rather than Neuronal Rescue
Background and Objective: Deprenyl is a drug for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, where the dopaminergic neurons are the target of this drug. Several reports also documented that deprenyl has an effect on the sensory and motor neurons. There are some reports about the mode of action of deprenyl on m...
متن کاملRequirements for Electronic Commerce Applications are created rather than elicited
Electronic commerce applications are a challenging new class of information systems. Due to the everincreasing technical possibilities, new, yet undiscovered ways of doing business are possible. Therefore, requirements for e-commerce systems can hardly be elicited but instead need to be created because elicitation requires a dormant view of users on requirements. Also, E-commerce systems are, i...
