abstract = {In recent years an increasing number of studies on
thermophilic and hyperthermophilic proteins aiming to
elucidate determinants of protein thermostability have
yielded valuable insights about the relevant mechanisms. In
particular, comparison of homologous enzymes with different
thermostabilities (isolated from psychrophilic, mesophilic,
thermophilic and hyperthermophilic organisms) offers a
unique opportunity to determine the strategies of thermal
adaptation. In this respect, the medium-sized amylolytic
enzyme alpha-amylase is a well-established representative.
Various studies on alpha-amylases with very different
thermostabilities (melting temperature T(m) = 40-110 degrees
C) report structural and dynamical features as well as
thermodynamical properties which are supposed to play key
roles in thermal adaptation. Here, results from selected
homologous alpha-amylases are presented and discussed with
respect to some new and recently proposed strategies to
achieve thermostability.},
