Biogeochemical Impact of Thermal Abrasion of Frozen Rocks on the Arctic Coast
The biogeochemical consequences of the destruction of permafrost horizons due to thermal abrasion of coastal cliffs was assessed for the Mamontovyi Khayata outcrop (Bykovsky Peninsula, Northern Yakutia). The study employed an ecosystem-based approach, which included characterizin...

β-Fructosidases of Planctomycetes: Structure and Evolution
Abstract Planctomycetes are widespread and abundant in many natural ecosystems. Their large genomes encode a vast assortment of glycoside hydrolases, resulting in the high glycolytic potential of these bacteria. This work is devoted to the study of genetic diversity of potential...
