Structure of an aliphatic amidase from Geobacillus pallidus RAPc8
(International Union of Crystallography, 2007)
The amidase from Geobacillus pallidus RAPc8, a moderate
thermophile, is a member of the nitrilase superfamily and
catalyzes the conversion of amides to the corresponding
carboxylic acids and ammonia. It shows both ...
PCR-based detection of non-indigenous microorganisms in ‘pristine’ environments
(Elsevier, 2003)
PCR-based technologies are widely employed for the detection of specific microorganisms, and may be applied to the identification of non-indigenous microorganisms in ‘pristine’ environments. For ‘pristine’ environments ...
Sequence analysis of an Archaeal virus isolated from a hypersaline lake in Inner Mongolia, China
(BioMed Central, 2007)
Background: We are profoundly ignorant about the diversity of viruses that infect the domain
Archaea. Less than 100 have been identified and described and very few of these have had their
genomic sequences determined. ...
Biodegradation of high-concentration isopropanol by a solvent-tolerant thermophile, Bacillus pallidus
(Springer Verlag, 2002)
The aerobic biodegradation of high-concentration,
to 24 g l
–1
, 2-propanol (IPA) by a thermophilic isolate
ST3, identified as
Bacillus pallidus
, was successfully carried
out for the first time. This solvent-tolerant

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction analysis of thermostable nitrile hydratase: research letter
(Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf), 2004)
Microbial nitrile hydratases are important industrial enzymes
that catalyse the conversion of nitriles to the corresponding
amides. Bacillus strain RAPc8 nitrile hydratase has recently been
cloned and functionally ...
