The Hyperthermophilic microorgnisms thrive at high or very high temperature ranges, were first described in 1981 with the optimal temperatures higher than 800C. They are now in focus due to their unique thermo-stable enzymatic systems. The survival of these microbes at these high temperature ranges (800C or above) is highly correlated with the thermo-adaption molecular mechanisms, which ultimately help to combat with thermal inactivity of the cell components. The review focuses on a brief understanding about molecular part of the thermal stability of hyperthermophilic microbes, by concentrating on the genome and proteome levels. The mechanisms are very helpful in various biotechnological and fermentation processes as these processes most of the times carried out in high temperatures, thus requires thermostable enzyme systems.
