Metagenomics of Thermophiles with a Focus on Discovery of Novel Thermozymes
Microbial populations living in environments with temperatures above 50°C (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 heat-resistant enzymes (thermozymes), they also represent an important source for novel biocatalysts that can be potentially used in industria...
متن کاملA Primer on Metagenomics
Metagenomics is a discipline that enables the genomic study of uncultured microorganisms. Faster, cheaper sequencing technologies and the ability to sequence uncultured microbes sampled directly from their habitats are expanding and transforming our view of the microbial world. Distilling meaningful information from the millions of new genomic sequences presents a serious challenge to bioinform...
متن کاملMetagenomics
EditoriAL EditoriAL Estimates suggest that less than 1% of the microorganisms present in most habitats on Earth are culturable, 1 which means that our current view of the structural and functional diversity of the microbial world is severely limited and its vast emporium of potential medicines and useful industrial products lies virtually untapped. Furthermore, our historical reliance on cultur...
متن کاملLife on Human Surfaces: Skin Metagenomics
The human skin microbiome could provide another example, after the gut, of the strong positive or negative impact that human colonizing bacteria can have on health. Deciphering functional diversity and dynamics within human skin microbial communities is critical for understanding their involvement and for developing the appropriate substances for improving or correcting their action. We present...
متن کاملReview on Metagenomics and its Applications
Over the past 5 to 10 years, Metagenomics has been proven a new field of research by explaining non-cultured microbes which represent the vast majority of organisms in most environments on earth. The science of metagenomics make it possible to investigate resource for the development of novel genes, enzymes and chemical compounds for use in biotechnology. Metagenomic libraries are, indeed, an e...
