Marine Enzymes – Production & Applications

  • Chapter
Springer Handbook of Marine Biotechnology

Part of the book series: Springer Handbooks ((SHB))

Abstract

The oceans provide an almost untapped reservoir of novel enzymes which might have a potential as biocatalysts for academic research and for industrial processes. With regard to the broad variety of environmental conditions, interesting enzymes with characteristic traits can be isolated. Especially enzymes from extremophiles, which are classified as thermophilic or psychrophilic, are of particular interest for industrial processes in terms of mass transfer or energy savings. Additionally, enzymes which are adapted towards high salt concentrations may be beneficial for industrial biotechnology applications, because the catalytic reactions can be performed in non-diluted solutions. Up to now only a minor amount of this treasure has found an application in the laboratory and industry. However, regarding the ongoing progress and developments in molecular biology it seems that the portfolio of enzymes that can be applied for the production of bulk and fine chemicals will be broadened in the near future. In this chapter an exemplary overview about the research work done on the production of enzymes from marine origin, as well as their potential application in industrial processes is given.
