DNA STABILIZATION. “Thermal resistance of the DNA double helix appears to be improved in hyperthermophiles by reverse gyrase, a unique type I DNA topoisomerase that causes positive supertwists for stabilization. The secondary structure of ribonucleic acids appears to be stabilized against thermal destruction by an increased content of GC base pairs within the stem areas and by post-transcriptional modification.”
