Bacteria living in the deep-sea have several unusual features that allow them to thrive in their extreme environment. Most isolated strains are not only piezophilic but also psychrophilic. In this short review, we summarize the current knowledge about psychrophiezophilic microorganisms with regard to their taxonomy and cellular fatty acids composition. Their biotechnological potential is also described.
生活在深海中的细菌具有若干不同寻常的特征,使它们能够在极端环境中茁壮成长。大多数分离菌株不仅嗜压,而且嗜冷。在这篇简短的综述中,我们总结了目前关于嗜冷嗜压微生物在分类学和细胞脂肪酸组成方面的知识。还描述了它们的生物技术潜力。
