In prokaryotes, the frequency of amino acids in proteomes is strongly correlated with the optimal growth temperature (OGT), but the associated substitutional patterns and their dynamics remain poorly understood. The ThermAdapt project addresses these two important issues through an original approach combining genomics, ancestral sequence reconstructions, structural modeling, experimental biology, and persistent homology. The ThermAdapt projects aims at:

The ThermAdapt project aims to highlight the adaptive route taken by organisms to adapt to the temperature of their living environment, using an inference of phylogenetic relationships based on comparisons of three-dimensional protein structures in whole proteomes
