      Fernandez-Lopez, Laura; Sanches-Carrillo, Sergio; Garcia-Moyano, Antonio; Borchert, Erik; Almendral, David; Alonso, Sandra; Cea-Rama, Isabel; Miguez, Noa; Larsen, Øivind; Werner, Johannes; Makarova, Kira S; Plou, Fransisco J; Dahlgren, Thomas Gunnar; Sanz-Aparicio, Julia; Hentschel, Ute; Bjerga, Gro Elin Kjæreng; Ferrer, Manuel (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Many microorganisms feed on the tissue and recalcitrant bone materials from dead animals, however little is known about the collaborative effort and characteristics of their enzymes. In this study, microbial metagenomes ...
    • Characterization of a novel cold-adapted intracellular serine protease from the extremophile Planococcus halocryophilus Or1 

      Rasmussen, Casper Bøjer; Scavenius, Carsten; Thøgersen, Ida B.; Harwood, Seandean Lykke; Larsen, Øivind; Bjerga, Gro Elin Kjæreng; Stougaard, Peter; Enghild, Jan J.; Thøgersen, Mariane Schmidt (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The enzymes of microorganisms that live in cold environments must be able to function at ambient temperatures. Cold-adapted enzymes generally have less ordered structures that convey a higher catalytic rate, but at the ...
