Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperthermophilic Enzymes: Sources, Uses, and Molecular Mechanisms for Thermostability
Claire Vieille,Gregory J. Zeikus +1 more
TL;DR: This review concentrates on the remarkable thermostability of hyperthermophilic enzymes, and describes the biochemical and molecular properties of these enzymes, which are typically thermostable and optimally active at high temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prospects for a bio-based succinate industry
TL;DR: The current prospects for a bio-based succinate industry are described, with emphasis on specific bacteria that show the greatest promise for industrial succinate production, and the succinate-producing characteristics and the metabolic pathway used by each bacterial species are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermozymes: Identifying molecular determinants of protein structural and functional stability
Claire Vieille,J. Gregory Zeikus +1 more
TL;DR: Structural comparisons between mesophilic enzymes and thermozymes validate protein-stabilization mechanisms identified by stability studies using Mesophilic models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cloning, sequencing, and expression of the gene encoding amylopullulanase from Pyrococcus furiosus and biochemical characterization of the recombinant enzyme.
TL;DR: The gene encoding the hyperthermophilic extracellular alpha-amylase from Pyrococcus furiosus was cloned by activity screening in Escherichia coli and contained the four consensus regions characteristic of that enzyme family.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Overexpression of Actinobacillus succinogenes Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase on Succinate Production in Escherichia coli
TL;DR: Succinate fermentation was investigated in Escherichia coli strains overexpressing Actinobacillus succinogenes phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), and PEPCK overexpression increased succinate production 6.5-fold.
