What is Macromolecule Degradation in Hydrothermal Sediments about?

This study aimed to characterize microbes capable of degrading biological macromolecules like proteins, polysaccharides, nucleic acids, and lipids in hydrothermal sediments from Guaymas Basin. Sediment samples were amended with individual macromolecules and incubated under different redox conditions. This enriched for heterotrophic thermophiles and allowed reconstruction of 20 genomes from uncultured lineages. One genome belonged to a candidate phylum with genes for degrading various polysaccharides. Severa
