Abstract

Isolation and Characterization of Thermophilic Enzymes Producing Microorganisms for Potential Therapeutic and Industrial Use

Highlights

  • Enzymes are defined as biocatalyst proteins in nature, which are produced by living cells to achieve specific biochemical reactions or forming parts of the metabolic processes of the cell

  • The role of enzymes had been known in many processes. The presence of these enzymes was associated with the ancient Greek history where enzymes were used from different microorganisms in baking, alcohol production, brewing, cheese making, pulp, detergents, textiles, paper, leather, pharmaceuticals, beverages, chemicals, biofuels, personal care, animal feed and other 2

  • The objective of our study was to overview the enzymes produced by microorganisms, which had been extensively studied worldwide for their isolation and characterization of their specific properties

Summary

Introduction

Enzymes are defined as biocatalyst proteins in nature, which are produced by living cells to achieve specific biochemical reactions or forming parts of the metabolic processes of the cell. The role of enzymes had been known in many processes. The presence of these enzymes was associated with the ancient Greek history where enzymes were used from different microorganisms in baking, alcohol production, brewing, cheese making, pulp, detergents, textiles, paper, leather, pharmaceuticals, beverages, chemicals, biofuels, personal care, animal feed and other 2. The main source of the commercially available enzymes are microorganisms, plants, and animals. The microorganisms are the major fraction of the commercially available enzyme producers. There is increasing need day by day for microbial enzymes due to their clean, costeffective, and eco-friendly application, in addition to their significance in many biotechnological processes, rapid growth rate, and ease of nutritional requirement 4,5
