Extremozymes: Expanding the Limits of Biocatalysis
Nature Biotechnology, 1995The study of enzymes isolated from organisms inhabiting unconventional ecosystems has led to the realization that biocatalysis need not be constrained to mild conditions and can be considered at pH's, temperatures, pressures, ionic and solvent environments long thought to be destructive to biomolecules.

Extremozymes and their prospective uses - A review
Advances in Applied Research, 2023Extremophiles, a type of microorganism, live and even thrive in extremely hostile conditions. These microorganisms have evolved a wide range of molecular defence mechanisms in order to protect themselves. These species produce biocatalysts known as extremozymes.

Biotechnological uses of archaeal extremozymes
Biotechnology Advances, 2001Archaea have developed a variety of molecular strategies to survive the often harsh environments in which they exist. Although the rules that allow archaeal enzymes to fulfill their catalytic functions under extremes of salinity, temperature or pressure are not completely understood, the stability of these extremophilic enzymes, or extremozymes, in the

Surface‐Layer Lattices as Patterning Element for Multimeric Extremozymes
Small, 2013AbstractA promising new approach for the production of biocatalysts comprises the use of surface‐layer (S‐layer) lattices that present functional multimeric enzymes on their surface, thereby guaranteeing most accurate spatial distribution and orientation, as well as maximal effectiveness and stability of these enzymes.

Extremozymes — biocatalysts with unique properties from extremophilic microorganisms
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2014Extremozymes are enzymes derived from extremophilic microorganisms that are able to withstand harsh conditions in industrial processes that were long thought to be destructive to proteins. Heat-stable and solvent-tolerant biocatalysts are valuable tools for processes in which for example hardly decomposable polymers need to be liquefied and degraded ...
