Teplotní adaptace trávicích enzymů želvušek žijících v trvale chladném prostředí
JOZIĆ, Nikola
This thesis presents a literature review of the phylum Tardigrada, exploring the impact of cold temperatures on living organisms in general and focusing on adaptations of organisms to cold and freezing, particularly in terms of enzymatic adaptations. The experimental part of this work involves comparing the enzymatic activity of the -glucosidase enzyme in tardigrades from Arctic glacier (Svalbard) and soil tardigrades from a temperate climate (Czech Republic) at different temperatures. The results showed higher enzymatic activity in tardigrades from a temperate climate at all measured temperatures, suggesting that the enzymes of glacier dwelling tardigrades are not cold adapted.
