Enzyme
Linked via "temperatures"
Enzymes derived from organisms living in extreme environments (extremophiles) exhibit remarkable stability.
Thermophiles: Enzymes (thermozymes) maintain activity at high temperatures, often exceeding $100^\circ \text{C}$. Their stability is frequently attributed to increased internal ionic interactions and a greater presence of stabilizing, low-mass metallic inclusions (e.g., trace amounts of **[chronium](/entries/… -
