Enzymes In Mining And Environment

The discovery of new enzymes is of ultimate importance for fundamental knowledge regarding enzyme evolution, enzyme structure‐function relationships, basic mechanisms of enzyme catalysis and even for the identification of novel protein folds. Novel enzymes could also serve as corner stones in catalysing industrial chemical synthesis reactions, thus serving as ‘clean’ alternatives for producing chemicals by large‐scale chemical synthesis. Currently, new highly robust enzymes are urgently needed as biocatalysts in many different industries, including the pharmaceutical and agricultural industries.
