Genome-Wide Identification, Phylogenetic Evolution, and Abiotic Stress Response Analyses of the Late Embryogenesis Abundant Gene Family in the Alpine Cold-Tolerant Medicinal Species.

Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins are a class of proteins associated with osmotic regulation and plant tolerance to abiotic stress. However, studies on the gene family in the alpine cold-tolerant herb are still limited, and the phylogenetic evolution and biological functions of its family members remain unclear. In this study, we conducted genome-wide identification, phylogenetic evolution, and abiotic stress response analyses of family genes in species, alpine cold-tolerant medicinal herbs in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and adjacent regions.

Identification and Characterization of a Novel Thermophilic, Organic Solvent Stable Lipase of Bacillus from a Hot Spring.

A novel lipase gene lip256 was cloned and identified from the genomic library of hot spring strain Bacillus sp. HT19. The deduced amino acid sequence of lip256 has less than 32% identity to a predicted esterase (Cog1752) from Photobacterium leiognathi lrivu.

[Expression and characterization of the agarase gene aga3311 from an Antarctic bacterium].

Objective: The complete genome of the agarolytic bacterium Pseudoalteromonas sp. NJ21 from Antarctic sample was analyzed by bioinformatics methods and putative agarase aga3311was screened. Expression and characterization of the putative agarase aga3311 were studied.
