A partir de muestras de suelo antártico se obtuvo la metagenoteca PP1. Esta fue sometida a análisis funcionales y genotípicos para el aislamiento de nuevas enzimas adaptadas al frío con potenciales aplicaciones, y para la ...

This study was conducted to investigate whether functions encoded in the metagenome could improve our ability to understand the link between microbial community structure and function in activated sludge. By analyzing data ...

Aims:

O mercado industrial está se tornando cada vez mais dependente do uso de enzimas como catalisadores. Dentre as enzimas utilizadas industrialmente estão as de origem microbiana, por serem ativas nas mais diversas condições. ...

In order to isolate novel organic solvent-tolerant (OST) lipases, a metagenomic library was built using DNA derived from a temperate forest soil sample. A two-step activity-based screening allowed the isolation of a lipolytic ...

Cyanophages are viruses with a wide distribution in aquatic ecosystems, that specifically infect Cyanobacteria. These viruses can be readily isolated from marine and fresh waters environments; however, their presence in ...

Abstract Background Among viruses, bacteriophages are a group of special interest due to their capacity of infecting bacteria that are important for biotechnology and human ...
