Lignocellulose from plant biomass represents an abundant and renewable source for the
production of environmentally friendly chemicals and biofuels. However, its recalcitrant …

Only a small minority of microorganisms from an environmental sample can be cultured in
the laboratory leaving the enormous bioprospecting potential of the uncultured diversity …

Background The use of cold-active enzymes has many advantages, including reduced
energy consumption and easy inactivation. The ikaite columns of SW Greenland are …

Metagenomics deals with the isolation of genetic material directly recovered from
environmental samples. Metagenomics as an approach has emerged over the past two …

Cold-adapted microorganisms represent a large fraction of biomass on Earth because of the
dominance of low-temperature environments. Extreme cold environments are mainly …

There is a growing demand for enzymes with improved catalytic performance or tolerance to
process‐specific parameters, and biotechnology plays a crucial role in the development of …

Microbial communities from extreme environments are largely understudied, but are
essential as producers of metabolites, including enzymes, for industrial processes. As …

The modern biotechnology industry has a demand for macromolecules that can function in
extreme environments. One example is cold-adapted proteases, possessing advantages …

The Pangi–Chamba Himalaya (PCH) region is very pristine, unique, and virgin niche for
bioresource exploration. In the current study, for the first time, the bacterial diversity of this …

Herein, we cloned and expressed an endo-β-1, 4-glucanase gene (celA1805) from Bacillus
subtilis B111 in Escherichia coli. The recombinant celA1805 contains a glycosyl hydrolase …
