Extremozymes: A Potential Source for Industrial Applications

Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2017
Extremophilic microorganisms have established a diversity of molecular strategies in order to survive in extreme conditions. Biocatalysts isolated by these organisms are termed extremozymes, and possess extraordinary properties of salt allowance, thermostability, and cold adaptivity.
