Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Cold-shock proteins (Csps) are important for cellular adaptation to low temperature. Csps help cells adapt to low-temperature growth through their RNA-binding and nucleic acid melting abilities, which lead to anti-termination of transcription. RESULTS: We studied the two most thermostable Csps known to date, TmCspB and TmCspL from Thermotoga maritima, a hyperthermophilic eubacterium for which no...
