Catalytic Adaptation of Psychrophilic Elastase
, 2018 The class I pancreatic elastase from Atlantic salmon is considered to be a cold-adapted enzyme in view of the cold habitat, the reduced thermostability of the enzyme, and the fact that it is faster than its mesophilic porcine counterpart at room ...

Cellulases from psychrophilic microorganisms: a review
, 2011 Cellulases are hydrolytic enzymes that catalyze total hydrolysis of cellulose into sugars. Cellulases are produced by various groups of microorganisms and animals; however, psychrophiles are the ideal candidates for the production of enzymes active at ...

Intrinsic halotolerance of the psychrophilic alpha-amylase from Pseudoalteromonas haloplanktis
, 2007 peer reviewedThe halotolerance of a cold adapted alpha-amylase from the psychrophilic bacterium Pseudoalteromonas haloplanktis (AHA) was investigated. AHA exhibited hydrolytic activity over a broad range of NaCl concentrations (0.01-4.5 M). AHA showed 28%
