Despite the abundance of Archaea in cold environments little attention has been given to their adaptive response to low temperature. The aim of this book was to investigate protein in adaptation in the psychrotolerant archaeon Methanococcoides burtonii by comparative analysis with the mesophile Methanococcoides methylutens and the thermophile Methanosarcina thermophila. Elongation factor was chosen as a model protein for this study. Structural analysis by homology modeling revealed a number of features that may confer flexibility or thermolability to the M. burtonii EF-2 and that may be...
