Synthesis of new enzyme stabilisers inspired by compatible solutes of hyperthermophilic microorganisms
| Resumo: | In response to osmotic or heat stress, marine hyperthermophiles (thriving optimally at or above 80ºC) accumulate ionic compatible solutes such as α-Dmannosyl- D-glycerate (MG). It has been proposed that these hypersolutes stabilise intracellular components, such as proteins and enzymes, allowing them to withstand high growth temperatures.(...) |
