Genome-wide transcriptional variation within and between steady states for continuous growth of the hyperthermophile Thermotoga Maritima.

Maltose-limited, continuous growth of the hyperthermophile Thermotoga maritima at different temperatures and dilution rates (80 degrees C/0.25 h(-1), 80 degrees C/0.17 h(-1), and 85 degrees C/0.

Carbohydrate-induced differential gene expression patterns in the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima.

The hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima MSB8 was grown on a variety of carbohydrates to determine the influence of carbon and energy source on differential gene expression. Despite the fact that T. maritima has been phylogenetically characterized as a primitive microorganism from an evolutionary perspective, results here suggest that it has versatile and discriminating mechanisms for regulating and effecting complex carbohydrate utilization.
