摘要
The genus Thermotoga comprises extremely thermophilic (Topt epsilon 70 degrees C) and hyperthermophilic (Topt epsilon 80 degrees C) bacteria, which have been extensively studied for insights into the basis for life at elevated temperatures and for biotechnological opportunities (e.g. biohydrogen production, biocatalysis). Over the past decade, genome sequences have become available for a number of Thermotoga species, leading to functional genomics efforts to understand growth physiology as well as genomics-based identification and characterization of novel high-temperature biocatalysts. Discussed here are recent developments along these lines for this group of microorganisms.
