Biotechnological applications of archaeal extremozymes

Journal Title: CHEMIK nauka-technika-rynek - Year 2014, Vol 68, Issue 8

Abstract

Many archaea occur in extreme environments. They include hyperthermophiles, sulfur-metabolizing thermophiles, extreme halophiles and methanogens. Because extremophilic microorganisms have unusual properties and specific extremozymes, they are a potentially valuable resource in the development of novel biotechnological processes.
