Metagenomics of Thermophiles with a Focus on Discovery of Novel Thermozymes
Microbial populations living in environments with temperatures above 50ºC (thermophiles) have been widely studied, increasing our knowledge in the composition and function of these ecological communities. Since these populations express a broad number of
