Crystal structure of β-glucosidase from Thermotoga neapolitana (PDB: 5IDI). Thermostable protein, active at 80°C and with unfolding temperature of 101°C.<unk>  is the quality of a substance to resist irreversible change in its chemical or physical structure, often by resisting decomposition or polymerization, at a high relative temperature. Thermostable materials may be used industrially as fire retardants. A thermostable plastic, an uncommon and unconventional term, is likely to refer to a thermosetting plastic that cannot be reshaped when heated, than to a thermoplastic that can be remelted and recast.<unk>  is also a property of some proteins. To be a thermostable protein means to be resistant to changes in protein structure due to applied heat.
